Matthew 23:37

35 ^athat on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, ^bfrom the blood of righteous Abel to ^cthe blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.

36 Assuredly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.

Jesus Laments over Jerusalem

37 ^a“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets ^band stones those who are sent to her! How often ^cI wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks ^dunder her wings, but you were not willing!

38 See! Your house is left to you desolate;

39 for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, ^a‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’ ”
