“ It is written,” he said to them,“‘ My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it‘ a den of robbers.’

He told them,“ It is written that the Lord said,‘ My house will be a house where people can pray.’( Isaiah 56:7) But you have made it a‘ den for robbers.’ ”( Jeremiah 7:11)

saying to them,“ It is written,‘ My house shall be a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”

and he said,“ It is written, my house will be a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves!”

saying to them,“ It is written:‘ And My house will be a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”

saying to them,“ It is written,‘ My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a‘ den of thieves.’”

saying unto them, It is written, And my house shall be a house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of robbers.

and He said,“ It is written, My house will be a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves!”

Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

saying to them,“ It is written,‘ My house will be a house of prayer,’ but you have turned it into a den of robbers!”

I will bring them to my holy mountain of Jerusalem and will fill them with joy in my house of prayer. I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices, because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations.

Don’t you yourselves admit that this Temple, which bears my name, has become a den of thieves? Surely I see all the evil going on there. I, the Lord, have spoken!

And this is the basic law of the Temple: absolute holiness! The entire top of the mountain where the Temple is built is holy. Yes, this is the basic law of the Temple.

But no, the people are like crafty merchants selling from dishonest scales— they love to cheat.

Your royal laws cannot be changed. Your reign, O Lord, is holy forever and ever.

“ What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you shut the door of the Kingdom of Heaven in people’s faces. You won’t go in yourselves, and you don’t let others enter either.
