Luke 11:47-51

471Woe to you! For you build the 2tombs of the prophets, and it was your fathers who killed them.

48So you are witnesses and approve the deeds of your fathers; because it was they who killed them, and you build their tombs.

49For this reason also 3the wisdom of God said, ‘4I will send to them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and some they will 5persecute,

50so that the blood of all the prophets, shed 6since the foundation of the world, may be 7charged against this generation,

51from 8the blood of Abel to 9the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the house of God; yes, I tell you, it shall be 10charged against this generation.’
