Matthew 21:1-9 (King James Version)

Matthew 21

 ¹And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

 ²Saying 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.

 ³And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

 ⁴All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

 ⁵Tell 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.

 ⁶And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

 ⁷And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

 ⁸And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

 ⁹And 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.
