Mark 11:1-11

21st Century King James Version

11 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent forth two of His disciples

² and said unto them, “Go your way into the village opposite you, and as soon as ye have entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon man never 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 outside by the door at a place where two ways met, and they loosed him.

⁵ And certain of those who 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 upon the way, and others cut down branches off the trees and strewed them upon the way.

⁹ And those who went before, and those who 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, as now the eventide had come, He went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
