New Century Version
Matthew 21:13-15
New Century Version
13 Jesus said to all the people there, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘My Temple will be called a house for prayer.’[a] But you are changing it into a ‘hideout for robbers.’”[b]
14 The blind and crippled people came to Jesus in the Temple, and he healed them. 15 The leading priests and the teachers of the law saw that Jesus was doing wonderful things and that the children were praising him in the Temple, saying, “Praise[c] to the Son of David.” All these things made the priests and the teachers of the law very angry.
