Luke 11:49-51
The Voice
49 This is why the Wisdom of God said, “I will send these people My prophets and emissaries,[a] and these people will kill and persecute many of them.” 50 As a result, this generation will be held accountable for the blood of all the prophets shed from the very beginning of time, 51 from Abel’s blood to Zechariah’s blood, who was killed in the temple itself between the altar and the holy place. I’m serious: this generation will be held accountable.
