Luke 19:46-48
International Children’s Bible
46 He said, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘My Temple will be a house where people will pray.’[a] But you have changed it into a ‘hideout for robbers’!”[b]
47 Jesus taught in the Temple every day. The leading priests, the teachers of the law, and some of the leaders of the people wanted to kill Jesus. 48 But all the people were listening closely to him and were interested in all the things he said. So the leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the leaders did not know how they could kill him.
