nkjv - Luke:19:28-44

nkjv@Luke:19:28 @ When He had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:19:29 @ And it came to pass, when He drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain called Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples,

nkjv@Luke:19:30 @ saying, "Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here.

nkjv@Luke:19:31 @ And if anyone asks you, "Why are you loosing it?' thus you shall say to him, "Because the Lord has need of it."'

nkjv@Luke:19:32 @ So those who were sent went their way and found it just as He had said to them.

nkjv@Luke:19:33 @ But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, "Why are you loosing the colt?"

nkjv@Luke:19:34 @ And they said, "The Lord has need of him."

nkjv@Luke:19:35 @ Then they brought him to Jesus. And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him.

nkjv@Luke:19:36 @ And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road.

nkjv@Luke:19:37 @ Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen,

nkjv@Luke:19:38 @ saying: ""Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the LORD!' Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

nkjv@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples."

nkjv@Luke:19:40 @ But He answered and said to them, "I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out."

nkjv@Luke:19:41 @ Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it,

nkjv@Luke:19:42 @ saying, "If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

nkjv@Luke:19:43 @ For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side,

nkjv@Luke:19:44 @ and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation."
