Mark 11:16-18

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁶ and He would not permit anyone to carry ^[a]merchandise through the temple. ¹⁷ And He began to teach and say to them, “Is it not written, ‘^(A)My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? ^(B)But you have made it a robbers’ ^[b]den.” ¹⁸ The chief priests and the scribes heard this, and ^(C)began seeking how to destroy Him; for they were afraid of Him, for ^(D)the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.
