The Triumphal Entry

1

And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, unto the mount of the Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

2

saying to them, `Go on to the village over-against you, and immediately ye shall find an ass bound, and a colt with her--having loosed, bring ye to me;

3

and if any one may say anything to you, ye shall say, that the lord hath need of them, and immediately he will send them.'

4

And all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying,

5

`Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Lo, thy king doth come to thee, meek, and mounted on an ass, and a colt, a foal of a beast of burden.'

6

And the disciples having gone and having done as Jesus commanded them,

7

brought the ass and the colt, and did put on them their garments, and set him upon them;

8

and the very great multitude spread their own garments in the way, and others were cutting branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way,

9

and the multitudes who were going before, and who were following, were crying, saying, `Hosanna to the Son of David, blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.'

10

And he having entered into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, `Who is this?'

11

And the multitudes said, `This is Jesus the prophet, who is from Nazareth of Galilee.'
