Matthew 21:12-14

Amplified Bible

Cleansing the Temple

¹² And Jesus entered the temple [grounds] and drove out [with force] all who were buying and selling [birds and animals for sacrifice] in the temple area, and He turned over the tables of the moneychangers [who made a profit exchanging foreign money for temple coinage] and the chairs of those who were selling doves [for sacrifice].^{(A) 13} Jesus said to them, “It is written [in Scripture], ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer’; but you are making it a robbers’ den.”^(B)

¹⁴ And the blind and the lame came to Him in [the porticoes and courts of] the temple area, and He healed them.
