12 The day after, a great number of people who were there for the feast, when they had the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13 Took branches of palm-trees and went out to him, crying, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!

14 And Jesus saw a young ass and took his seat on it; as the Writings say,

15 Have no fear, daughter of Zion: see your King is coming, seated on a young ass.

16 (These things were not clear to his disciples at first: but when Jesus had been lifted up into his glory, then it came to their minds that these things in the Writings were about him and that they had been done to him.)

17 Now the people who were with him when his voice came to Lazarus in the place of the dead, and gave him life again, had been talking about it.

18 And that was the reason the people went out to him, because it had come to their ears that he had done this sign.

19 Then the Pharisees said one to another, You see, you are unable to do anything: the world has gone after him.

12 Le lendemain, une grande troupe qui était venue pour la fête, apprenant que Jésus venait à Jérusalem,

13 Prit des rameaux de palmiers, et sortit au-devant de lui, en criant: Hosanna! béni soit LE ROI D’ISRAEL, qui vient au nom du Seigneur!

14 Et Jésus ayant trouvé un ânon, y monta dessus, selon qu'il est écrit:

15 Ne crains point, fille de Sion; voici, ton Roi vient, monté sur le poulain d'une ânesse.

16 Ses disciples ne comprirent pas cela d'abord; mais quand Jésus fut glorifié, alors ils se souvinrent que ces choses avaient été écrites de lui, et qu'elles lui étaient arrivées.

17 Et la troupe qui était avec lui quand il avait appelé Lazare du sépulcre, et qu'il l'avait ressuscité des morts, lui rendait témoignage.

18 Et c'est aussi parce que le peuple avait appris qu'il avait fait ce miracle, qu'il était allé au-devant de lui.

19 Les pharisiens dirent donc entre eux: Vous voyez que vous ne gagnez rien; voilà que tout le monde court après lui.
