Luke 11:45-47
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
45 One of the experts in the [Mosaic] Law answered Him, Teacher, in saying this, You reproach and outrage and affront even us!
46 But He said, Woe to you, the lawyers, also! For you load men with oppressive burdens hard to bear, and you do not personally [even [a]gently] touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Woe to you! For you are [b]rebuilding and repairing the tombs of the prophets, whom your fathers killed (destroyed).
