Luke 19:41-48

41

AsG5613 Jesus approachedG1448 Jerusalem and sawG3708 theG3588 cityG4172, He weptG2799 overG1909 itG846 42and saidG3004, “If onlyG1487 you had knownG1097 onG1722 thisG3778 dayG2250 whatG3588 would bring youG4771 peaceG1515! ButG1161 nowG3568 it is hiddenG2928 fromG575 yourG4771 eyesG3788. 43ForG3754 the daysG2250 will comeG2240 uponG1909 youG4771 when yourG4771 enemiesG2190 will barricadeG3925G5482 youG4771 andG2532 surroundG4033 youG4771 andG2532 hem you inG4912G4771 on every sideG3840. 44They will level you to the groundG1474—youG4771 andG2532 the childrenG5043 withinG1722 yourG4771 walls. They will not leaveG3756G863 one stoneG3037 onG1909 another, becauseG473G3739 you did not recognizeG3756G1097 theG3588 timeG2540 of yourG4771 visitationG1984 from God.1”

45ThenG2532 Jesus enteredG1525G1519 theG3588 templeG2411 courts2 and beganG756 to drive outG1544 those whoG3588 were sellingG4453 there. 46He declaredG3004 to themG846, “It is writtenG1125: ‘MyG1473 houseG3624 will beG1510 a houseG3624 of prayerG4335.’3 ButG1161 youG4771 have madeG4160 itG846 ‘a denG4693 of robbersG3027.’4”

Jesus wasG1510 teachingG1321 atG1722 theG3588 templeG2411 everyG2596 dayG3588G2250, butG1161 theG3588 chief priestsG749, scribesG1122, andG2532 leadersG4413 of theG3588 peopleG2992 were intentG2212 on killingG622 HimG846. 48YetG2532 they could not findG3756G2147 a wayG5101 to doG4160 so, becauseG1063 allG537 theG3588 peopleG2992 hungG1582 on His wordsG846G191.
