Luke 23:27-29

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁷ And there accompanied [Jesus] a great multitude of the people, [including] women who bewailed and lamented Him.

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

²⁹ For behold, the days are coming during which they will say, Blessed (happy, fortunate, and ^[a]to be envied) are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have never nursed [babies]!
