14 and he found in the temple those selling oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting,
15 and having made a whip of small cords, he put all forth out of the temple, also the sheep, and the oxen; and of the money-changers he poured out the coins, and the tables he overthrew,
16 and to those selling the doves he said, `Take these things hence; make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.`
17 And his disciples remembered that it is written, `The zeal of Thy house did eat me up;`
18 the Jews then answered and said to him, `What sign dost thou shew to us -- that thou dost these things?`
19 Jesus answered and said to them, `Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.`
20 The Jews, therefore, said, `Forty and six years was this sanctuary building, and wilt thou in three days raise it up?`
