Luke 11:45–52
45 One of the lawyers said to Him in reply, “Teacher, when You say this, You insult us, too.”
46 But He said, “Woe to you lawyers as well, for you weigh men down with burdens hard to bear, while you yourselves will not even touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Woe to you, for you build the tombs of the prophets, and it was your fathers who killed them.
48 So you are witnesses and approve the deeds of your fathers, because it was they who killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 For this reason also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill, and some they will persecute,
50 so that the blood of all the prophets shed since the foundation of the world may be charged against this generation,
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the house of God. Yes, I tell you, it shall be charged against this generation.’
52 Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge. You yourselves did not enter, and you hindered those who were entering.”
Luke 13:34–35
34 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it.
35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
