1 耶稣和门徒走近耶路撒冷， 来到橄榄山的伯法其那里。耶稣派了两个门徒，

2 对他们说： "你们往对面的村子里去， 立刻就会看见一头驴拴在那里， 还有小驴跟它在一起。把它们解开， 牵来给我。

3 如果有人问你们， 就要说： ‘主需要它们。’他会立刻让你们牵走。"

4 这件事应验了先知所说的：

5 "要对锡安的居民（"居民"原文作"女子"）说： ‘看哪， 你的王来到你这里了； 他是温柔的， 他骑着驴， 骑的是小驴。’"

6 门徒照着耶稣的吩咐去作。

7 牵了驴和小驴来， 把衣服搭在它们上面， 耶稣就骑上。

8 有一大群人把自己的衣服铺在路上， 也有人从树上把树枝砍下来， 铺在路上。

9 前呼后拥的群众喊叫着： "‘和散那’归于大卫的子孙， 奉主名来的是应当称颂的， 高天之上当唱‘和散那’。"

10 耶稣进了耶路撒冷， 全城都震动起来， 他们问： "这人是谁？"

11 大家都说： "这就是那先知耶稣， 是从加利利的拿撒勒来的。"

1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me. 3 And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them. 4 Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,

5 Tell ye the daughter of Zion,

Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,

Meek, and riding upon an ass,

And upon a colt the foal of an ass.

6 And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them, 7 and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon. 8 And the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the way. 9 And the multitudes that went before him, 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. 10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this? 11 And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
