1 Quando Jesus e os discípulos se aproximavam de Jerusalém, já perto da vila de Betfagé, no Monte das Oliveiras, Jesus mandou que dois deles fossem à sua frente, à vila

2 Logo à entrada verão uma jumenta ali amarrada com a cria ao lado. Desamarrem-nas e tragam-nas cá. Se alguém vos perguntar o que fazem, respondam apenas: 'O Mestre precisa delas , e não haverá dificuldade.

6 Os dois discípulos fizeram como Jesus lhes disse e trouxeram-lhe os animais, pondo as suas roupas em cima do jumentinho. Jesus montou-o.

8 Muita gente começou a pôr as suas capas ao longo da estrada à sua frente, enquanto outras cortavam ramos das árvores e os espalhavam diante dele.

10 Toda a cidade de Jerusalém ficou em alvoroço quando ele entrou. Quem é este?, perguntava-se.

11 E o povo respondia: É Jesus, o profeta de Nazaré da Galileia!

1 And, when they drew near unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the Mount of Olives, then, Jesus sent forth two disciples;

2 saying unto themBe going into the village that is over against you, and, straightway, ye shall find an ass, bound, and a colt with her,loose them, and lead them unto me.

3 And, if anyone, unto you, say aught, ye shall sayTheir Lord, hath, need,and, straightway, he will send them.

4 But, this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through the prophet, saying:

5 Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy King, is coming unto thee, meek and mounted upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of a toiling ass.

6 And the disciples, went, and did as Jesus directed them;

7 and led the ass and the colt, and laid upon them their garments, and he took his seat upon them.

8 And, the chief multitude, spread their own mantles in the way, and, others, were cutting off young branches from the trees, and spreading them in the way;

9 and the multitudes, they who were going before him and they who were following after, were crying aloud, sayingHosanna! to the Son of David, Blessed is he that is coming in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest.

10 And, when he entered into Jerusalem, all the city was startled, sayingWho is this?

11 And, the multitudes, were sayingThis, is the prophet Jesus,He from Nazareth of Galilee.
