Luke 11:49-51

49 "For this reason also 1the wisdom of God said, '2I 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 3since the foundation of the world, may be charged against this generation,
51 from 4the blood of Abel to 5the 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.'
