Luke 11:49-51

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁹ This is why in his wisdom God said, ‘I will send prophets and apostles to them. Some of my prophets and apostles will be killed, and others will be treated cruelly.’ ⁵⁰ So you who live now will be punished for the deaths of all the prophets who were killed since the beginning of the world. ⁵¹ You will be punished for the killing of Abel and for the killing of Zechariah.^[a] Zechariah was killed between the altar and the Temple. Yes, I tell you that you people who live now will be punished for them all.
