Mark 11:1-21 ▼

1 And whan they came nye Ierusalem to Bethphage and Bethanye vnto mount Oliuete, he sent two of his disciples,

2 and sayde vnto them: Go in to the towne that lyeth before you, and as soone as ye come in, ye shal fynde a foale bounde, wher vpon no man hath sytte: lowse it, and brynge it hither.

3 And yf eny man saye vnto you: wherfore do ye that? Then saye ye: The LORDE hath nede therof, and forth with he shal sende it hither.

4 They wete their waie and founde the foale tyed by ye dore without at the partynge of the waye, and lowsed it.

5 And certayne of those yt stode there, axed them: What do ye, that ye lowse the foale?

6 But they sayde vnto the, like as Iesus had commaunded them. And so they let them alone.

7 And they brought the foale vnto Iesus, and layed their clothes theron, and he sat theron.

8 But many spred their garmetes in the waye: some cut downe braunches fro the trees, and strowed the in the waye.

9 And they that wente before, and that folowed after, cried, and sayde: Hosyanna, blessed be he, that commeth in the name of the LORDE:

10 blessed be the kyngdome of oure father Dauid, which commeth in the name of the LORDE. Hosyanna in the height.

11 And the LORDE entred in to Ierusalem, and wente in to the temple, and loked vpon all. And at euen he wente out vnto Bethany with the twolue:

12 and on the morow wha they departed from Bethanye, he hugred,

13 and sawe a fygge tre afarre of, which had leaues. Then came he nye, (to se) yf he coude fynde eny thinge theron.And whan he came to it, he founde nothinge but leaues (for the tyme of fygges was not yet)

14 And Iesus answered, and sayde vnto it: Neuer ma eate frute of the for euermore. And his disciples herde it.

15 And they came to Ierusalem. And Iesus wente in to the temple, and beganne to dryue out the sellers and byers in the teple, & ouerthrew the tables of the money chaungers, and the stoles of the doue sellers,

16 and suffred not eny man to cary a vessell thorow the temple.

17 And he taught and sayde vnto them: Is it not wrytten: My house shalbe called a house of prayer for all people? But ye haue made it a denne of murthurers.

18 And the scrybes and hye prestes herde of it. And they sought how they might destroye him, but they were afrayed of him, for all the people marueled at his doctryne.

19 And at euen he wente out of the cite.

20 And on the morow they passed by, and sawe the fygge tre, that it was wythred vnto the rote.

21 And Peter thought theron, and sayde vnto him: Master, beholde, the fygge tre yt thou cursedest, is wythred awaye.
