Matthew 21:1-11

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 And when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

2 saying to them, "Go into the village before you, and right away you will find a donkey tied and a colt with her. Untie [them] [and] bring [them] to me.

3 And if anyone says anything to you, you will say, 'The Lord {needs them},' and he will send them at once."

4 Now this took place so that what was spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying,

5 "Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your king is coming to you, humble and mounted on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a pack animal.'"

6 So the disciples went and did just as Jesus directed them,

7 [and] brought the donkey and the colt and put their cloaks on them, and he sat on them.

8 And a very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading [them] on the road.

9 And the crowds who went ahead of him and the ones who followed were shouting, saying, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed [is] the one who comes in the name of the Lord!<note: A quotation from Ps 118:25-26> Hosanna in the highest [heaven]!"<note: *Here "heaven" is understood>

10 And [when] he entered into Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, "Who is this?"

11 And the crowds were saying, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee!"

New International Version NIV

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

2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me.

3 If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”

4 This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

5 “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’ ”

6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.

7 They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on.

8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”

10 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”

11 The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”
