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

So that punishment may come on this generation for the blood of all the prophets which was given from the earliest days;

δια να εκζητηθη το αιμα παντων των προφητων, το εκχυνομενον απο της αρχης του κοσμου, απο της γενεας ταυτης,

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