41Jesus wus cumin near tae Jerusalem noo, an whan he saa tha cïtie, he begun tae greet, an he saed, 42“Och, ïf ye onlie haed hae knowed whut wud brïng ye peace tha day! But na, ye dïdnae, an noo ït's hïd frae yer een. 43Fer tha time wull cum whan thaim that's agin ye wull big dykes aa roon ye, an fence ye ïn frae aa sides. 44Ye'll be flettent ïntae tha grun, an aa yer fowk alang wi ye. The'll no lea yin stane on anither, fer ye dïdnae ken tha day that God cum tae ye.”
