Mark 11:1-7 ▼

1 And as they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples,

2 and said to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.

3 And if anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it’; and immediately he will send it back here.”

4 They went away and found a colt tied at the door, outside in the street; and they untied it.

5 And some of the bystanders were saying to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?”

6 And they told them just as Jesus had said, and they gave them permission.

7 They brought the colt to Jesus and put their cloaks on it; and He sat on it.
