Matthew

                                   Chapter 21

  1. And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to
     Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two
     disciples,
  2. Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and
     straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her:
     loose them, and bring them unto me.
  3. And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord
     hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
  4. All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was
     spoken by the prophet, saying,
  5. Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto
     thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of
     an ass.
  6. And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
  7. And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their
     clothes, and they set him thereon.
  8. And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way;
     others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in
     the way.
  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.
 10. And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved,
     saying, Who is this?
 11. And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of
     Nazareth of Galilee.
