Matthew 23:31

Because of the sins of her prophets And the iniquities of her priests, Who have shed in her midst The blood of the righteous;

“Again, you have heard that the ancients were told, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

“Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, but your fathers killed them.

“And which one of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They killed those who had previously announced the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become;

you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?
