Matthew 23:31-35

Lamsa(i) 31 Now you testify concerning yourselves, that you are the children of those who killed the prophets. 32 You also fill up the measure of your fathers. 33 O you serpents, and seed of scorpions! how can you flee from the judgment of hell? 34 Because of this, I am sending to you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify; and some you will scourge in your synagogues, and pursue them from city to city; 35 So that all the blood of the righteous shed on the ground may come on you, from the blood of Abel the righteous down to the blood of Zachariah, son of Barachiah, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.
