1 AND when they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto mount Olivet, then Jesus sent two disciples, Now when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,
2 Saying to them: Go ye into the village that is over against you, and immediately you shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them and bring them to me. saying to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me. saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me.
3 And if any man shall say anything to you, say ye, that the Lord hath need of them: and forthwith he will let them go. If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them at once.” If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
4 Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying, This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:
5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion: Behold thy king cometh to thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of her that is used to the yoke. “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.’” “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”
6 And the disciples going, did as Jesus commanded them. The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.
7 And they brought the ass and the colt, and laid their garments upon them, and made him sit thereon. They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them. They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on.
8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way: and others cut boughs from the trees, and strewed them in the way: Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
9 And the multitudes that went before and that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest. And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
