Luke 23:27-30

²⁷A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.

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

²⁹Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’

³⁰At that time

‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!”

and to the hills, “Cover us!”’
