Luke 11:45-54 - Jesus Talks To Experts On The Law

45 And a certain of the skilled in the law having answered, said, Teacher, speaking these things, and thou injurest us.

46 And he said, And woe to you, skilled in the law! for ye load men with loads difficult to carry, and ye yourselves touch not one of the fingers to the load.

47 Woe to you! for ye build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. 48 Surely ye testify and assent to your fathers' works: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their tombs. 49 And for this said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and the sent, and of them shall they kill and drive out: 50 That the blood of all the prophets shed from the foundation of the world be required of this generation; 51 From the blood of Abel even to the blood of Zacharias perishing between the altar and house: yea, I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.

52 Woe to you, skilled in the law! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye came not in yourselves, and those coming in ye hindered.

53 And he saying these things to them, the scribes and Pharisees began to hold on greatly, and to put questions to him of many things: 54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to seize something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
