1
And when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Beth'phage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
2
and said to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat; untie it and bring it.
3
If any one says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"
4
And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door out in the open street; and they untied it.
5
And those who stood there said to them, "What are you doing, untying the colt?"
6
And they told them what Jesus had said; and they let them go.
7
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and threw their garments on it; and he sat upon it.
8
And many spread their garments on the road, and others spread leafy branches which they had cut from the fields.
