30 And G1161 Jesus G2424 answering G5274 said, G2036 A certain G5100 man G444 went down G2597 from G575 Jerusalem G2419 to G1519 Jericho, G2410 and G2532 fell among G4045 thieves, G3027 which G3739 G2532 stripped G1562 him G846 of his raiment, G1562 and G2532 wounded G4127 G2007 him, and departed, G565 leaving G863 him half dead. G2253 G5177
Then G1161 he took G3880 unto him the twelve, G1427 and said G2036 unto G4314 them, G846 Behold, G2400 we go up G305 to G1519 Jerusalem, G2414 and G2532 all things G3956 that are written G1125 by G1223 the prophets G4396 concerning the Son G5207 of man G444 shall be accomplished. G5055
Wherefore, behold, the days H3117 come, H935 saith H5002 the LORD, H3068 that I will do judgment H6485 upon her graven images: H6456 and through all her land H776 the wounded H2491 shall groan. H602
They say H559 to their mothers, H517 Where is corn H1715 and wine? H3196 when they swooned H5848 as the wounded H2491 in the streets H7339 of the city, H5892 when their soul H5315 was poured out H8210 into their mothers' H517 bosom. H2436

Commentary on Luke 10 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 10
In this chapter we have,
