1
And when they drew near unto Jerusalem and were come to Bethphage unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
2
saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied and a colt with her; loose them and bring them unto me.
3
And if anyone says anything unto you, ye shall say, The Lord has need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4
All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
5
Say unto the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King comes unto thee, meek and sitting upon an ass and a colt the foal of a beast under yoke.
6
And the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them
7
and brought the ass and the colt and put on them their clothes, and he sat upon them.
