Matthew 21:1-11
The Triumphal Entry
1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,
1:
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.
2:
3 And if any [man] say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
3:
4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
4:
5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.
5:
6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
6:
7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set [him] thereon.
7:
8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed [them] in the way.
8:
9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
9:
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
10:
11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
11:
