31 Therfore ye be wytnesses vnto youre selues, that ye are the children of them, which slew the prophetes.
32 Go to, fulfyll ye also the measure of youre fathers.
33 O ye serpentes, O ye generacion of vypers, how wyl ye escape the damnacion of Hell?

35 that vpon you maye come all the righteous bloude which hath bene shed vpon ye earth, from the bloude of righteous Abel, vnto ye bloude of Zachary ye sonne of Barachias, whom ye slew betwene the temple and the altare.
36 Verely I saye vnto you: All these thinges shal light vpo this generacion.
