‘My house shall be a house of prayer,’
but you have made it a den of robbers.”(A)
47 Every day he was teaching in the temple. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people kept looking for a way to kill him,(B) 48 but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were spellbound by what they heard.
