14 In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.
14
In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money.
15 And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.
15
So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
16 And he told those who sold the pigeons, "Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a house of trade."
16
To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”

19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?”
21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
