Luke 11:48-52

48So you are witnesses and you approve of the deeds of your fathers; because it was they who killed them, and you build their 1tombs. 49For this reason also, 2the wisdom of God said, ‘3I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill, and some they will 4persecute, 50so that the blood of all the prophets, shed 5since the foundation of the world, may be charged 6against this generation, 51from 7the blood of Abel to 8the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the house of God; yes, I tell you, it shall be charged 9against this generation.’ 52Woe to you 1011lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge; 12you yourselves did not enter, and you hindered those who were entering.”
