John 2:13-17
Authorized (King James) Version
13 And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, 14 and found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: 15 and when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables; 16 and said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise. 17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple(A)
13 (B)Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 (C)And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers [a]doing business. 15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables. 16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make (D)My Father’s house a house of merchandise!” 17 Then His disciples remembered that it was written, (E)“Zeal for Your house [b]has eaten Me up.”
