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.
