Matthew 23:33-35
1599 Geneva Bible
33 O serpents, the generation of vipers, how should ye escape the damnation of [a]hell!
34 [b]Wherefore behold, I send unto you Prophets, and wise men, and Scribes, and of them ye shall kill and crucify: and of them shall ye scourge in your Synagogues, and persecute from city to city,
35 [c]That upon you may come all the righteous blood that was shed upon the earth, (A)from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zechariah the son of [d]Berechiah, (B)whom ye slew between the Temple and the altar.
