RKJNT(i)
29 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you build the tombs of the prophets, and adorn the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Therefore you are witnesses against yourselves, that you are the sons of those who killed the prophets.
32 Fill up, then, the measure of the sins of your fathers.
33 You serpents, you generation of vipers, how can you escape being condemned to hell?
34 Therefore, behold, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you shall kill and crucify; and some of them you shall scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berachiah, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.
36 Truly I say to you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets, and stone those who are sent to you, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not let me!
