Luke 19:25-35

25 "And they said to him, 'Master, he has ten minas already.'

26 "¹I tell you that to everyone who has, more shall be given, but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away.

27 "But ²these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and ³slay them in my presence."

Triumphal Entry

28 After He had said these things, He ⁴was going on ahead, ⁵going up to Jerusalem.

29 ⁶When He approached Bethphage and ⁷Bethany, near the mount that is called ⁸Olivet, He sent two of the disciples,

30 saying, "Go into the village ahead of you; there, as you enter, you will find a colt tied on which no one * yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.

31 "If anyone asks you, 'Why * are you untying it?' you shall say, 'The Lord has need of it.' "

32 So those who were sent went away and found it just as He had told them.

33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?"

34 They said, "The Lord has need of it."

35 They brought it to Jesus, ⁹and they threw their coats on the colt and put Jesus on it.
