New King James Version
Praise to God for His Everlasting Mercy
2 (C)Let Israel now say,
“His mercy endures forever.”
Psalm 118:19-29
New King James Version
19 (A)Open to me the gates of righteousness;
I will go through them,
And I will praise the Lord.
20 (B)This is the gate of the Lord,
(C)Through which the righteous shall enter.
21 I will praise You,
For You have (D)answered me,
And have become my salvation.
22 (E)The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
23 [a]This was the Lord’s doing;
It is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day the Lord has made;
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save now, I pray, O Lord;
O Lord, I pray, send now prosperity.
26 (F)Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.
27 God is the Lord,
And He has given us (G)light;
Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
28 You are my God, and I will praise You;
(H)You are my God, I will exalt You.
29 Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.

The Triumphal Entry(A)
28 When He had said this, (B)He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 (C)And it came to pass, when He drew near to [a]Bethphage and (D)Bethany, at the mountain called (E)Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples, 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. 31 And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing it?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of it.’ ”
32 So those who were sent went their way and found it just (F)as He had said to them. 33 But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, “Why are you loosing the colt?”
34 And they said, “The Lord has need of him.” 35 Then they brought him to Jesus. (G)And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him. 36 And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road.
37 Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to (H)rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, 38 saying:
(I)“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’
(J)Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
39 And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”
40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, (K)the stones would immediately cry out.”

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)
28 After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.(C) 29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany(D) at the hill called the Mount of Olives,(E) he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, 30 “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them.(F) 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.”
35 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks(G) on the road.
37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives,(H) the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:
“Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”(J)
39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”(K)
40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”(L)
