Mark 11:1-11

1 And when Jesus came nigh to Jerusalem and to Bethany, to the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples, [+And when Jesus came nigh to Jerusalem and to Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples],
2 and saith to them, Go ye into the castle that is against you; and at once as ye enter there ye shall find a colt tied, on which no man hath sat yet [+and anon ye entering in thither shall find a colt tied, upon which none of men sat yet]; untie ye, and bring him.
3 And if any man say any thing to you, What do ye? say ye, that he is needful to the Lord, and at once he shall let him go hither [and anon he shall leave him hither].
4 And they went forth, and found a colt tied before the gate withoutforth, in the meeting of two ways; and they untied him.
5 And some of them that stood there said to them, What do ye, untying the colt?
6 And they said to them, as Jesus commanded them; and they left it to them [and they let go to them].
7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and they laid on him their clothes, and Jesus sat on him [+and they put on him their clothes, and Jesus sat upon him].
8 And many strewed their clothes in the way, and other men cutted branches off trees [+soothly other men cut bows, or branches, from trees], and strewed in the way.
9 And they that went before, and that followed, cried, and said [saying], Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord;
10 blessed be the kingdom of our father David that is to come; Hosanna in highest things. [+blessed is the realm of our father David that cometh; Hosanna in highest.]
11 And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and when he had seen all things about, when it was even [+when the hour was now evening/when now the eventide hour was], he went out into Bethany, with the twelve.
