At
that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him,
"Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill
you."
He replied, "Go tell that fox, 'I will drive out demons and
heal people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach
my goal.' In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and
the next day--for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone
those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children
together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you
were not willing! Look, your house is left to you desolate. I tell
you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who
comes in the name of the Lord.'
