ἵνα ἐκζητηθῇ τὸ αἷμα πάντων τῶν προφητῶν, τὸ ἐκχυννόμενον ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου, ἀπὸ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης
in_order_that /may_be/_sought_out the blood ˱of˲_all the prophets ¬which /being/_poured_out from /the/_foundation ˱of˲_/the/_world from ¬the generation this
The implication seems to be that God will also send prophets to the people living at this time because the people’s violent persecution of the prophets will constitute a conscious, deliberate rejection of God’s message that will provide grounds for definitive judgment. That is because the people of this time should know better than to persecute the prophets, based on the prominent bad example of their own ancestors. Alternate translation: “so that the people living at this time, who should have known better, can be held accountable for the blood that people have shed of all the prophets since the beginning of the world”

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who will do the action. Alternate translation: “so that God can hold the people living at this time accountable for the blood of all the prophets that people shed from the foundation of the world”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τὸ αἷμα πάντων τῶν προφητῶν, τὸ ἐκχυννόμενον
the blood ˱of˲_all the prophets ¬which /being/_poured_out
Jesus uses the term the blood … that has been shed to refer to the deaths of the prophets by association with their blood. Alternate translation: “the deaths of all the prophets”
ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου
from /the/_foundation ˱of˲_/the/_world
Alternate translation: “since the beginning of the world” or “since God made the world”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης
¬the generation this
Jesus uses the term generation to mean the people who were born in the current generation. Alternate translation: “the people living at this time”
11:42-52 What sorrow awaits you Pharisees! Woes are the opposite of blessings (see study note on 6:24-26). Jesus pronounced six woes, three against the Pharisees (11:42, 43, 44) and three against the teachers of religious law (11:46, 47, 52).
