John 2:17-22

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁷ And his disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal^(A) for your house will consume^(B) me.^[a](C)

¹⁸ So the Jews replied to him, “What sign will you show us for doing these things?”

¹⁹ Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple,^[b](D) and I will raise it up in three days.”^(E)

²⁰ Therefore the Jews said, “This temple took forty-six years to build,^[c] and will you raise it up in three days?” ^(F)

²¹ But he was speaking about the temple of his body.^{(G) 22} So when he was raised from the dead,^(H) his disciples remembered that he had said this,^(I) and they believed the Scripture^(J) and the statement Jesus had made.
