1 And when they came
nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of
Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
2 And
saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you:
and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied,
whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
3 And
if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord
hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
|
4 And they went their
way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where
two ways met; and they loose him.
5 And
certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye,
loosing the colt?
6 And they said
unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them
go.
7 And they brought the colt to
Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon
him.
8 And many spread their
garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the
|
trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 And
they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying,
Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the
Lord:
10 Blessed be the kingdom of
our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in
the highest.
11 And Jesus entered
into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round
about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out
unto Bethany with the twelve.
