*
When He had said this ,
He went on ahead ,
going up to Jerusalem .
*
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 ,
*
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 .
*
And if anyone asks you , "
Why are you loosing it ?'
thus you shall say to him , "
Because the Lord has need of it ."'
*
So those who were sent went their way and found it just as He had said to them .
*
But as they were loosing the colt ,
the owners of it said to them , "
Why are you loosing the colt ?"
*
And they said , "
The Lord has need of him ."
*
Then they brought him to Jesus .
And they threw their own clothes on the colt ,
and they set Jesus on him .
*
And as He went ,
many spread their clothes on the road .
*
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 ,
*
saying : ""
Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the LORD !'
Peace in heaven and glory in the highest !"
*
And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd , "
Teacher ,
rebuke Your disciples ."
*
But He answered and said to them , "
I tell you that if these should keep silent ,
the stones would immediately cry out ."
*
Now as He drew near ,
He saw the city and wept over it ,
*
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 .
*
For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you ,
surround you and close you in on every side ,
*
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 ."
