Luke 23:24-32

24So Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they requested.

25And he released to them the one they requested, who for rebellion and murder had been thrown into prison; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

26Now as they led Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus.

27And a great multitude of the people followed Him, and women who also mourned and lamented Him.

28But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

29For indeed the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, wombs that never bore, and breasts which never nursed!’

30Then they will begin ‘to say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!” ’

31For if they do these things in the green wood, what will be done in the dry?”

32There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death.
