Luke 23:28 in Context — Luke 23
26 E enquanto o levavam, tomaram a um Simão Cireneu, que vinha do campo, e puseram-lhe a cruz às costas, para que a levasse atrás de Jesus.
27 E seguia-o uma grande multidão do povo, e de mulheres, as quais também ficavam desconsoladas, e lamentavam por ele.
28 E Jesus, virando-se para elas, disse: Filhas de Jerusalém, não choreis por mim, mas chorai por vós mesmas, e por vossos filhos.
29 Porque eis que vêm dias em que dirão: Bem-aventuradas as estéreis, e os ventres que não deram a luz, e os peitos que não amamentaram.
30 Então começarão a dizer aos montes: Cai sobre nós; E aos morros: Cobri-nos!
