Words for mediation at the Mount of Olives:

When Jesus drew near and saw the city He wept over it, saying, “Would that even today you knew the things that make for peace!  But now they are hid from your eyes.  For the days shall come upon you, when your enemies will cast up a bank about you and surround you, and hem you in on every side, and dash you to the ground, you and your children within you, and they will not leave one stone upon another in you; because you did not know the time of your visitation.”

– Jesus, as He approached Jerusalem on Palm Sunday,

Luke 19:41 – 44
