John 12:12-19

New King James Version

The Triumphal Entry^(A)

^12 (B)The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, ¹³ took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out:

^14 (D)Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written:

^16 (F)His disciples did not understand these things at first; ^(G)but when Jesus was glorified, ^(H)then they remembered that these things were written about Him and that they had done these things to Him.

¹⁷ Therefore the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from the dead, bore witness. ^18 (I)For this reason the people also met Him, because they heard that He had done this sign. ¹⁹ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, ^(J)“You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, the world has gone after Him!”
