Revised Version 1885

Luke 11:45-51 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

45. And one of the lawyers answering saith unto him, Master, in saying this thou reproachest us also.

46. And he said, Woe unto you lawyers also! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.

47. Woe unto you! for ye build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

48. So ye are witnesses and consent unto the works of your fathers: for they killed them, and ye build their tombs.

49. Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and some of them they shall kill and persecute;

50. that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

51. from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary: yea, I say unto you, it shall be required of this generation.
