rsv@Luke:23:26 @ And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.

rsv@Luke:23:27 @ But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

rsv@Luke:23:28 @ For behold, the days are coming when they will say, `Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave suck!'

rsv@Luke:23:29 @ Then they will begin to say to the mountains, `Fall on us'; and to the hills, `Cover us.'
