1
And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,
2
And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you, and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath sat. Loose him and bring him.
3
And if any man shall say to you: What are you doing? Say ye that the Lord hath need of him. And immediately he will let him come hither.
4
And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate without, in the meeting of two ways. And they loose him.
5
And some of them that stood there said to them: What do you loosing the colt?
6
Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them. And they let him go with them.
7
And they brought the colt to Jesus. And they lay their garments on him: and he sat upon him.
8
And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down boughs from the trees and strewed them in the way.
