Since I called out and you refused, extended my hand and no one paid attention,since you neglected all my counsel and did not accept my correction,I, in turn, will laugh at your calamity. I will mock when terror strikes you,when terror strikes you like a storm and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when trouble and stress overcome you.Then they will call me, but I won’t answer; they will search for me, but won’t find me.Because they hated knowledge, didn’t choose to fear the LORD,were not interested in my counsel, and rejected all my correction,they will eat the fruit of their way and be glutted with their own schemes.

I have kept it safe in a clothbecause I was afraid of you since you’re a harsh man: you collect what you didn’t deposit and reap what you didn’t sow.’“ He told him,‘ I will condemn you by what you have said, you evil servant! If you knew I was a harsh man, collecting what I didn’t deposit and reaping what I didn’t sow,why, then, didn’t you put my money in the bank? And when I returned, I would have collected it with interest.’So he said to those standing there,‘ Take the mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’“ But they said to him,‘ Master, he has ten minas.’“‘ I tell you, that to everyone who has, more will be given; and from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.But bring here these enemies of mine, who did not want me to rule over them, and slaughter them in my presence.’”When he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.As he approached Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciplesand said,“ Go into the village ahead of you. As you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it.If anyone asks you,‘ Why are you untying it?’ say this:‘ The Lord needs it.’”So those who were sent left and found it just as he had told them.As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them,“ Why are you untying the colt?”“ The Lord needs it,” they said.Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their clothes on the colt, they helped Jesus get on it.As he was going along, they were spreading their clothes on the road.Now he came near the path down the Mount of Olives, and the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen:Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest heaven!Some of the Pharisees from the crowd told him,“ Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”He answered,“ I tell you, if they were to keep silent, the stones would cry out.”As he approached and saw the city, he wept for it,saying,“ If you knew this day what would bring peace— but now it is hidden from your eyes.For the days will come on you when your enemies will build a barricade around you, surround you, and hem you in on every side.They will crush you and your children among you to the ground, and they will not leave one stone on another in your midst, because you did not recognize the time when God visited you.”
