I see a lamentation. But not a threat.

It's a national consequence for rejecting Christ.

Check out what happened shortly after Jesus said that. About 70 AD
Edit: I looked back and now see that others brought up the little 70AD sack of Jerusalem.

Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Jesus: "Take heed that no man deceive you."
