John 2:12-17

¹²After this Jesus, his mother, his brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and they stayed there for a few days.

¹³Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

¹⁴He found sellers of oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money changers were sitting there.

¹⁵So he made a whip of cords and drove all of them out from the temple, including both the sheep and the oxen. He scattered the coins of the money changers and overthrew their tables.

¹⁶To the pigeon sellers he said, “Take these things away from here. Stop making the house of my Father a marketplace.”

¹⁷His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.”
