and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been their fellows in the blood of prophets.
And the Lord God of their fathers sent to them by the hand of his messengers, and the Lord rose up by night, and he admonished them each day; for-thy that he would spare his people, and his dwelling place.
In vain I smote your sons, they received not chastising; your sword devoured your prophets, your gener-ation is destroyed as a lion.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, that build [the] sepulchres of prophets, and make fair the burials of just men,
And so ye be in witnessing to yourselves, that ye be the sons of them that slew the prophets.
See ye Israel after the flesh, whether they that eat sacrifices, be not partners of the altar?
that our hope be firm for you; witting for as ye be fellows of passions, so ye shall be also of comfort.
