1
And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent forth two of His disciples
2
and said unto them, "Go your way into the village opposite you, and as soon as ye have entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon man never sat. Loose him and bring him.
3
And if any man say unto you, `Why do ye this?' say ye that the Lord hath need of him, and straightway he will send him hither."
4
And they went their way and found the colt tied outside by the door at a place where two ways met, and they loosed him.
5
And certain of those who stood there said unto them, "What do ye, loosing the colt?"
6
And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded, and they let them go.
7
And they brought the colt to Jesus and cast their garments on him, and He sat upon him.
