King James Power New Testament New International Version

19. Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20.  Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?  21. But he spake of the temple of his body.  22. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.  

19. Jesus answered and said to them, "You must destroy this sanctuary and in three days I shall raise it."   20. Therefore the Jewish leaders said, "This sanctuary was built in forty-six years, and You will raise it in three days?"   21. But He was talking about the sanctuary of His body. 22. However, when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this, and they believed in the Scripture and in the message which Jesus spoke.

19. Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."  20. The Jews replied, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?"  21. But the temple he had spoken of was his body.  22. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said.  Then they believed the Scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.
