Mark 11:1-11

The Message Bible MSG

1 When they were nearing Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany on Mount Olives, he sent off two of the disciples with instructions:

2 "Go to the village across from you. As soon as you enter, you'll find a colt tethered, one that has never yet been ridden. Untie it and bring it.

3 If anyone asks, 'What are you doing?' say, 'The Master needs him, and will return him right away.'"

4 They went and found a colt tied to a door at the street corner and untied it.

5 Some of those standing there said, "What are you doing untying that colt?"

6 The disciples replied exactly as Jesus had instructed them, and the people let them alone.

7 They brought the colt to Jesus, spread their coats on it, and he mounted.

8 The people gave him a wonderful welcome, some throwing their coats on the street, others spreading out rushes they had cut in the fields.

9 Running ahead and following after, they were calling out, Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in God's name!

10 Blessed the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in highest heaven!

11 He entered Jerusalem, then entered the Temple. He looked around, taking it all in. But by now it was late, so he went back to Bethany with the Twelve.

New International Version NIV

1 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples,

2 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.

3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’ ”

4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. As they untied it,

5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?”

6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go.

7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it.

8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields.

9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, “Hosanna! ” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”

10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!”

11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
