How often would I have gathered your children together, as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you would not! 38 "Behold, your house is left to you desolate! 39 "For I tell you that never shall you see me again until you say, "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord."

I tell you that you shall never see me again until you say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord,"
