Matthew 21:13-15
International Children’s Bible
13 Jesus said to all the people there, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘My Temple will be a house where people will pray.’[a] But you are changing God’s house into a ‘hideout for robbers.’”[b]
14 The blind and crippled people came to Jesus in the Temple, and Jesus healed them. 15 The leading priests and the teachers of the law saw that Jesus was doing wonderful things. They saw the children praising him in the Temple. The children were saying, “Praise[c] to the Son of David.” All these things made the priests and the teachers of the law very angry.
