28 And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem. 29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, 30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither. 31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him. 32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him. 35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon. 36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way. 37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; 38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. 39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. 40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

28 Après avoir ainsi parlé, Jésus marcha devant la foule, pour monter à Jérusalem.

29 Lorsqu'il approcha de Bethphagé et de Béthanie, vers la montagne appelée montagne des oliviers, Jésus envoya deux de ses disciples,

30 en disant: Allez au village qui est en face; quand vous y serez entrés, vous trouverez un ânon attaché, sur lequel aucun homme ne s'est jamais assis; détachez-le, et amenez-le.

31 Si quelqu'un vous demande: Pourquoi le détachez-vous? vous lui répondrez: Le Seigneur en a besoin.

32 Ceux qui étaient envoyés allèrent, et trouvèrent les choses comme Jésus leur avait dit.

33 Comme ils détachaient l'ânon, ses maîtres leur dirent: Pourquoi détachez-vous l'ânon?

34 Ils répondirent: Le Seigneur en a besoin.

35 Et ils amenèrent à Jésus l'ânon, sur lequel ils jetèrent leurs vêtements, et firent monter Jésus.

36 Quand il fut en marche, les gens étendirent leurs vêtements sur le chemin.

37 Et lorsque déjà il approchait de Jérusalem, vers la descente de la montagne des oliviers, toute la multitude des disciples, saisie de joie, se mit à louer Dieu à haute voix pour tous les miracles qu'ils avaient vus.

38 Ils disaient: Béni soit le roi qui vient au nom du Seigneur! Paix dans le ciel, et gloire dans les lieux très hauts!

39 Quelques pharisiens, du milieu de la foule, dirent à Jésus: Maître, reprends tes disciples.

40 Et il répondit: Je vous le dis, s'ils se taisent, les pierres crieront!

28 E dette queste cose, Gesù andava innanzi, salendo a Gerusalemme.

29 E avvenne che come fu vicino a Betfage e a Betania presso al monte detto degli Ulivi, mandò due de iscepoli, dicendo:

30 Andate nella borgata dirimpetto, nella quale entrando, troverete legato un puledro dasino, sopra il quale non è mai montato alcuno; scioglietelo e menatemelo.

31 E se qualcuno vi domanda perché lo sciogliete, direte così: Il Signore ne ha bisogno.

32 E quelli cherano mandati, partirono e trovarono le cose comegli avea lor detto.

33 E comessi scioglievano il puledro, i suoi padroni dissero loro: Perché sciogliete il puledro?

34 Essi risposero: Il Signore ne ha bisogno.

35 E lo menarono a Gesù; e gettati i loro mantelli sul puledro, vi fecero montar Gesù.

36 E mentre egli andava innanzi, stendevano i loro mantelli sulla via.

37 E comera già presso la città, alla scesa del monte degli Ulivi, tutta la moltitudine dei discepoli cominciò con allegrezza a lodare Iddio a gran voce per tutte le opere potenti che aveano vedute,

38 dicendo: Benedetto il Re che viene nel nome del Signore; pace in cielo e gloria ne luoghi altissimi!

39 E alcuni de Farisei di tra la folla gli dissero: Maestro, sgrida i tuoi discepoli!

40 Ed egli, rispondendo, disse: Io vi dico che se costoro si tacciono, le pietre grideranno.
