Matthew 23:33

30 and say, `If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.`

31 Therefore you testify to yourselves that you are sons of those who killed the prophets.

32 Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers.

33 You serpents, you offspring of vipers, how will you escape the judgment of Gehenna?

34 Therefore, behold, I send to you prophets, wise men, and scribes. Some of them will you kill and crucify; and some of them will you scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city;

35 that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous to the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom you killed between the sanctuary and the altar.

36 Most assuredly I tell you, all these things will come on this generation.
