As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples,
saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here.
and He said to them, “Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.
If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’ ”
And if anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it,’ and immediately he will send it here.”
They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. As they untied it,
some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?”
But some of those who stood there said to them, “What are you doing, loosing the colt?”
They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go.
And they spoke to them just as Jesus had commanded. So they let them go.
When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it.
Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it.
Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields.
And many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying:
“Hosanna!
‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
“Hosanna!
‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
