Jesus at the Temple^(A)

⁴⁵ When Jesus entered the temple courts, he began to drive out those who were selling.

¹⁴ In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves,^(A) and others sitting at tables exchanging money.^{(B) 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 To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house^(C) into a market!”
