What follows is the reason for Jesus' sadness.

# the days will come upon you
|

This indicates that they would experience difficult times. Some languages do not talk about time coming. AT: "in the future these things will happen to you" or "soon you will endure troublesome times"

# you
|
|
|
|
The word "you" is singular because Jesus was speaking to the city. But if this would be unnatural in your language, you could use a plural form of "you" to refer to the people of the city. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])

Since Jesus was speaking to the city, this refers to the walls and buildings of the city. AT: "They will destroy your walls" or "They will destroy your city"

This refers to the people who lived in the city. AT: "they will kill you people in the city"
