Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

Verse 48 is found in chapter 11 of Luke. The denunciations of the Pharisees and experts in the law confront a form of religion concerned with appearance and honor. Jesus denounces burdens imposed on others and an interpretation of tradition that can ultimately resist God’s action.

So bezeugt ihr und willigt in eurer Väter Werke; denn sie töteten sie, so baut ihr ihre Gräber.
De cierto dais testimonio que consentís en los hechos de vuestros padres; porque a la verdad ellos los mataron, mas vosotros edificáis sus sepulcros.
Así que son testigos y aprueban las obras de sus antepasados: ellos los mataron y ustedes construyen.
Vous rendez donc témoignage aux oeuvres de vos pères, et vous les approuvez; car eux, ils ont tué les prophètes, et vous, vous bâtissez leurs tombeaux.
Voi dunque testimoniate de’ fatti de’ vostri padri, e li approvate; perciocchè essi uccisero i profeti, e voi edificate i lor monumenti.
Bem testificais, pois, que consentis nas obras de vossos pais; porque eles os mataram, e vós edificais os seus sepulcros.
可見你們祖宗所做的事,你們是證人,你們也贊同,因為他們殺了先知,你們建造先知的墳墓。
