1 Quando se aproximavam de Jerusalém, e tinham chegado a Betfagé e Betânia, junto do monte das Oliveiras, enviou Jesus dois de seus discípulos,

2 e disse-lhes: Ide à aldeia que está em frente de vós, e logo que nela entrardes, achareis um jumentinho preso, que nunca foi montado; desprendei-o e trazei-o.

3 Se alguém vos perguntar: Por que fazeis isso? respondei: O Senhor precisa dele, e logo tornará a enviá-lo para aqui.

4 Eles partiram e acharam um jumentinho preso ao portão do lado de fora na rua, e o desprenderam.

5 Alguns que ali se achavam, lhes perguntaram: Que fazeis, desprendendo o jumentinho?

6 Eles responderam como Jesus lhes havia dito; e os deixaram ir.

7 Então trouxeram o jumentinho, sobre que lançaram as suas capas; e Jesus montou nele.

8 Muitos também estenderam as suas capas na estrada, e outros espalharam ramagens que tinham cortado nos campos.

9 Tanto os que precediam, como os que seguiam, clamavam: Hosana! Bendito aquele que vem em nome do Senhor!

10 Bendito o reino que vem, o reino de nosso pai Davi! Hosana nas maiores alturas!

11 Tendo Jesus entrado em Jerusalém, foi ao templo; e observando tudo, como fosse já tarde, saiu com os doze para Betânia.

1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples, 2 And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him. 3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither. 4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him. 5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt? 6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. 7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him. 8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way. 9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: 10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest. 11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
