Luke 11:49-51
EasyEnglish Bible

49 God is wise. Because you do not obey what is true, he said, “I will send my prophets and apostles to go to them. But they will kill some of my servants. They will hurt others of them.” 50 Since the beginning of the world, people have killed God's prophets. But God will punish the people who are alive today for all those murders. 51 Abel was the first to die like this and Zechariah was the last. They even killed Zechariah in the yard of the temple, near the altar.[a] Yes, God will punish the people who are alive today for all those murders.

  1. 11:51 Through the years bad men have killed many good men. The prophets wrote in the Bible about many people who died in that way. Abel was the first person like that (Genesis 4:8.). Zechariah was the last person like that (2 Chronicles 24:21).
