1 E, logo que se aproximaram de Jerusalém, de Betfagé e de Betânia, junto do Monte das Oliveiras, enviou dois dos seus discípulos,
2 E disse-lhes: Ide à aldeia que está defronte de vós; e, logo que ali entrardes, encontrareis preso um jumentinho, sobre o qual ainda não montou homem algum; soltai-o, e trazei-mo.
3 E, se alguém vos disser: Por que fazeis isso? dizei-lhe que o Senhor precisa dele, e logo o deixará trazer para aqui.
4 E foram, e encontraram o jumentinho preso fora da porta, entre dois caminhos, e o soltaram.
5 E alguns dos que ali estavam lhes disseram: Que fazeis, soltando o jumentinho?
6 Eles, porém, disseram-lhes como Jesus lhes tinha mandado; e deixaram-nos ir.
7 E levaram o jumentinho a Jesus, e lançaram sobre ele as suas vestes, e assentou-se sobre ele.
8 E muitos estendiam as suas vestes pelo caminho, e outros cortavam ramos das árvores, e os espalhavam pelo caminho.
9 E aqueles que iam adiante, e os que seguiam, clamavam, dizendo: Hosana, bendito o que vem em nome do Senhor;
10 Bendito o reino do nosso pai Davi, que vem em nome do Senhor. Hosana nas alturas.
11 E Jesus entrou em Jerusalém, no templo, e, tendo visto tudo em redor, como fosse já tarde, saiu para Betânia com os doze.
12 E, no dia seguinte, quando saíram de Betânia, teve fome.
13 E, vendo de longe uma figueira que tinha folhas, foi ver se nela acharia alguma coisa; e, chegando a ela, não achou senão folhas, porque não era tempo de figos.
14 E Jesus, falando, disse à figueira: Nunca mais coma alguém fruto de ti. E os seus discípulos ouviram isto.
15 E vieram a Jerusalém; e Jesus, entrando no templo, começou a expulsar os que vendiam e compravam no templo; e derrubou as mesas dos cambiadores e as cadeiras dos que vendiam pombas.
16 E não consentia que alguém levasse algum vaso pelo templo.
17 E os ensinava, dizendo: Não está escrito: A minha casa será chamada, por todas as nações, casa de oração? Mas vós a tendes feito covil de ladrões.
18 E os escribas e príncipes dos sacerdotes, tendo ouvido isto, buscavam ocasião para o matar; pois eles o temiam, porque toda a multidão estava admirada acerca da sua doutrina.
19 E, sendo já tarde, saiu para fora da cidade.
20 E eles, passando pela manhã, viram que a figueira se tinha secado desde as raízes.
21 E Pedro, lembrando-se, disse-lhe: Mestre, eis que a figueira, que tu amaldiçoaste, se secou.
22 E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Tende fé em Deus;
23 Porque em verdade vos digo que qualquer que disser a este monte: Ergue-te e lança-te no mar, e não duvidar em seu coração, mas crer que se fará aquilo que diz, tudo o que disser lhe será feito.
24 Por isso vos digo que todas as coisas que pedirdes, orando, crede receber, e tê-las-eis.
25 E, quando estiverdes orando, perdoai, se tendes alguma coisa contra alguém, para que vosso Pai, que está nos céus, vos perdoe as vossas ofensas.
26 Mas, se vós não perdoardes, também vosso Pai, que está nos céus, vos não perdoará as vossas ofensas.
27 E tornaram a Jerusalém, e, andando ele pelo templo, os principais dos sacerdotes, e os escribas, e os anciãos, se aproximaram dele.
28 E lhe disseram: Com que autoridade fazes tu estas coisas? ou quem te deu tal autoridade para fazer estas coisas?
29 Mas Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhes: Também eu vos perguntarei uma coisa, e respondei-me; e então vos direi com que autoridade faço estas coisas:
30 O batismo de João era do céu ou dos homens? respondei-me.
31 E eles arrazoavam entre si, dizendo: Se dissermos: Do céu, ele nos dirá: Então por que o não crestes?
32 Se, porém, dissermos: Dos homens, tememos o povo. Porque todos sustentavam que João verdadeiramente era profeta.
33 E, respondendo, disseram a Jesus: Não sabemos. E Jesus lhes replicou: Também eu vos não direi com que autoridade faço estas coisas.
1 And when they came near to Jerusalem, to Beth-phage and Bethany, at the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
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.
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.
4 And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose.
5 And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass?
6 And they said to them the words which Jesus had said; and they let them go.
7 And they took the young ass to Jesus, and put their clothing on him, and he got on his back.
8 And a great number put down their clothing in the way; and others put down branches which they had taken from the fields.
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:
10 A blessing on the coming kingdom of our father David: Glory in the highest.
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.
12 And on the day after, when they had come out from Bethany, he was in need of food.
13 And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.
14 And he said to it, Let no man take fruit from you for ever. And his disciples took note of his words.
15 And they came to Jerusalem; and he went into the Temple, and sent out those who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were offering doves for money;
16 And he would not let any man take a vessel through the Temple.
17 And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.
18 And it came to the ears of the chief priests and scribes, and they took thought how they might put him to death; being in fear of him, because all the people were full of wonder at his teaching.
19 And every evening he went out of the town.
20 And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.
21 And Peter, having a memory of it, said to him, Master, see, the tree which was cursed by you is dead.
22 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.
23 Truly I say to you, Whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and be put into the sea; and has no doubt in his heart, but has faith that what he says will come about, he will have his desire.
24 For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.
25 And whenever you make a prayer, let there be forgiveness in your hearts, if you have anything against anyone; so that you may have forgiveness for your sins from your Father who is in heaven.

27 And they came again to Jerusalem: and while he was walking in the Temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority:
28 And they said to him, By what authority do you do these things? or who gave you authority to do these things?
29 And Jesus said to them, I will put to you one question; give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things.
30 The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? give me an answer.
31 And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?
32 But if we say, From men--they were in fear of the people, because all took John to be truly a prophet.
33 And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.
