Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee.
13:32. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox: Behold, I cast out

consummated.
13:33. Nevertheless, I must walk to-day and to-morrow and the day

13:34. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killest the prophets; and stonest them
that are sent to thee, how often would I have gathered thy children as
