Matthew 23:35-37

International Children’s Bible

³⁵ So you will be guilty for the death of all the good people who have been killed on earth. You will be guilty for the murder of that good man Abel. And you will be guilty for the murder of Zechariah^[a] son of Berakiah. He was murdered when he was between the Temple and the altar. ³⁶ I tell you the truth. All of these things will happen to you people who are living now.
