1 And when Jesus came nigh to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at [or to] the mount of Olives, then sent he his two disciples [or then Jesus sent his two disciples],
2 and said to them, Go ye into the castle that is against you, and anon ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her; untie ye, and bring to me.
3 And if any man say to you anything, say ye, that the Lord hath need to them; and anon he shall leave them.
4 All this was done, that that thing should be fulfilled, that was said by the prophet, saying,
5 Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy king cometh to thee, meek, sitting on an ass, and a foal [or a colt] of an ass under yoke.
6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded [to] them.
7 And they brought an ass, and the foal [or the colt], and laid their clothes on them, and made him [to] sit above.
8 And full much people spreaded their clothes in the way; others cutted branches of trees, and strewed in the way.
9 And the people that went before, and that pursued, cried, and said, Hosanna to the son of David; blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in high things [or in the highest things].
10 And when he was entered into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, and said, Who is this?
11 But the people said, This is Jesus, the prophet, of Nazareth of Galilee.
