1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, 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 unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto 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 one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them. 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 this is come to pass, 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 Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass. “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 went, and did even as Jesus appointed them, The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.
7 and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat 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 the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread 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 him, 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!”
