11:1 And when they came near to Jerusalem, to Beth-phage and Bethany, at the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, 11:2 And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him. 11:3 And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away. 11:4 And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose. 11:5 And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass? 11:6 And they said to them the words which Jesus had said; and they let them go. 11:7 And they took the young ass to Jesus, and put their clothing on him, and he got on his back. 11:8 And a great number put down their clothing in the way; and others put down branches which they had taken from the fields. 11:9 And those who went in front, and those who came after, were crying, Glory: A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord: 11:10 A blessing on the coming kingdom of our father David: Glory in the highest. 11:11 And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
