Mark 11:16-18

Revised Standard Version

¹⁶ and he would not allow any one to carry anything through the temple. ¹⁷ And he taught, and said to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers.” ¹⁸ And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and sought a way to destroy him; for they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.
