11 (A)Когато наближиха до Иерусалим, до Витфагия и Витания, при Елеонската планина, Иисус изпраща двама от учениците Си

и им казва: идете в селото, що е насреща ви, и щом влезете в него, ще намерите вързано осле, което никой човек не е възсядал; отвържете го и докарайте.

И ако някой ви рече: защо правите това? отговорете, че то е потребно Господу; и веднага ще го прати тука.

Те отидоха и намериха ослето, вързано о вратата на улицата, и го отвързаха.

И някои от стоещите там им казваха: какво правите? защо отвързвате ослето?

А те им отговориха, както им бе заповядал Иисус, и ония ги пуснаха.

(B)И докараха ослето при Иисуса, намятаха върху него дрехите си, и Иисус го възседна.

(C)А мнозина постилаха дрехите си по пътя; други пък сечеха клони от дърветата и постилаха по пътя.

(D)И които вървяха отпред, и които Го съпровождаха, възклицаваха и казваха: осана, благословен Идещият в име Господне!

10 Благословено царството на отца ни Давида, което иде в име Господне! Осана във висините!

11 И влезе Иисус в Иерусалим и в храма; като разгледа всичко, и понеже беше вече късно, излезе и отиде във Витания с дванайсетте.

12 На другия ден, когато излязоха от Витания, Той огладня;

13 и като видя отдалеч една смоковница, покрита с листа, отиде, дано намери нещо на нея; но, като дойде при нея, не намери нищо, освен листа, понеже още не беше време за смокини.

14 И рече ѝ Иисус: занапред никой да не вкуси плод от тебе вовеки! И чуха товаучениците Му.

15 (E)Дойдоха в Иерусалим. Иисус, като влезе в храма, почна да пъди продавачите и купувачите в храма; и прекатури масите на менячите и пейките на гълъбопродавците;

16 и не позволяваше да пренесе някой през храма какъвто и да е съд.

17 (F)И поучаваше ги, като казваше: не е ли писано: „домът Ми ще се нарече дом молитвен за всички народи“? А вие го направихте разбойнишки вертеп.

18 Чуха това книжниците и първосвещениците и гледаха, как да Го погубят, понеже се бояха от Него, тъй като цял народ се чудеше на учението Му.

19 А когато се стъмни, Той излезе вън от града.

20 Сутринта, минавайки, видяха, че смоковницата бе изсъхнала от корен.

21 И като си спомни, Петър Му казва: Рави, виж, смоковницата, която Ти прокле, изсъхнала.

22 Иисус им отговори и рече:

23 имайте вяра в Бога. Защото, истина ви казвам: ако някой каже на тая планина: дигни се и се хвърли в морето, и не се усъмни в сърцето си, а повярва, че ще стане по думите му, – ще му се сбъдне, каквото и да каже.

24 (G)Затова казвам ви: всичко, каквото бихте поискали в молитва, вярвайте, че ще получите; и ще ви бъде дадено.

25 (H)И кога стоите на молитва, прощавайте, ако имате нещо против някого, та и Небесният ви Отец да прости вам прегрешенията ви.

26 Ако ли вие не прощавате, и Небесният ви Отец няма да прости вам прегрешенията ви.

27 (I)И дойдоха пак в Иерусалим. И когато Той ходеше из храма, приближиха се до Него първосвещениците и книжниците и стареите

28 и Му казват: с каква власт вършиш това? и кой Ти е дал тая власт да вършиш това?

29 А Иисус им отговори и рече: ще ви попитам и Аз една дума, и отговорете Ми; тогава и Аз ще ви кажа, с каква власт върша това.

30 Кръщението Иоаново от небето ли беше, или от човеците? отговорете Ми.

31 А те разсъждаваха помежду си и казваха: ако речем, от небето, ще каже: а защо му не повярвахте?

32 Ако ли речем, от човеците – бояха се от народа; понеже всички приемаха, че Иоан наистина беше пророк.

33 И казаха в отговор Иисусу: не знаем. Тогава Иисус им отговори и рече: и Аз ви не казвам, с каква власт върша това.

Исус влиза в Ерусалим като цар

(Мат. 21:1-11; Лк. 19:28-40; Йн. 12:12-19)

11 Като наближиха Ерусалим, недалеч от Витфагия и Витания — близо до Елеонската планина, Исус изпрати двама от учениците си напред и им каза: „Идете в града, който се простира пред вас. Веднага щом влезете там, ще намерите едно вързано магаренце, което никой още не е възсядал — отвържете го и го доведете. Ако някой ви попита защо правите това, отговорете му така: «Господ има нужда от него и веднага ще го върне.»“

Те влязоха в града и намериха на улицата едно магаренце, вързано до една врата, и го отвързаха. Наблизо стояха няколко души, които ги попитаха: „Какво правите? Защо отвързвате магарето?“ Учениците им отговориха така, както им беше казал Исус, и хората им разрешиха да го вземат. Те го откараха при Исус и като метнаха връхните си дрехи на гърба на магарето, той го възседна. Много хора постилаха връхните си дрехи на пътя му, други слагаха пред него клонките, които бяха счупили в полето, и ги постилаха на пътя. Някои вървяха пред Исус, други — зад него и всички викаха:

„«Осанна!»
    «Благословен да бъде този, който идва в името на Господа!»(A)
10 Благословено да е идващото царство
    на нашия баща Давид!
Осанна във висините!“

11 Исус влезе в Ерусалим и отиде в храма. Огледа всичко вътре, но тъй като вече беше късно, излезе и отиде във Витания с дванадесетте апостола.

Безплодната смокиня

(Мат. 21:18-19)

12 На другия ден, когато излизаха от Витания, Исус усети глад. 13 В далечината видя едно раззеленено смокиново дърво и отиде да провери дали по него има някакъв плод. Когато се приближи, видя само листа, защото още не беше дошло времето на смокините. 14 Тогава Исус каза на дървото: „Вече никой да не вкуси от плода ти!“ И учениците му чуха това.

Исус отива в храма

(Мат. 21:12-17; Лк. 19:45-48; Йн. 2:13-22)

15 После пристигнаха в Ерусалим. Исус влезе в храма и започна да гони хората, които продаваха и купуваха там. Той преобърна масите на онези, които обменяха пари, и скамейките на продавачите на гълъби, 16 и не разреши на никого да пренася свои неща през храма. 17 След това започна да учи хората, като им говореше: „Писано е: «Моят дом ще бъде наречен дом на молитва на всички народи»(B), а вие сте го превърнали в «свърталище на разбойници»(C).“

18 Главните свещеници и законоучителите чуха тези думи и започнаха да търсят начин да убият Исус. Те се страхуваха от него, защото целият народ беше удивен от учението му. 19 С идването на вечерта Исус и учениците му напуснаха града.

Исус показва силата на вярата

(Мат. 21:20-22)

20 На сутринта, минавайки покрай смокиновото дърво, те видяха, че то е изсъхнало до корен. 21 Петър си спомни за него и каза на Исус: „Учителю, виж! Вчера ти прокле тази смокиня и сега тя е суха и мъртва.“

22 Исус отговори: „Вярвайте в Бога. 23 Истина ви казвам: ако заповядате на тази планина: „Стани и скочи в морето!“, без да допускате в сърцето си никакво съмнение и вярвате, че каквото казвате, ще се сбъдне, то ще бъде изпълнено за вас. 24 Затова ви казвам: вярвайте, че всичко, което поискате в молитвите си, сте го получили — и то ще бъде ваше. 25 А когато заставате да се молите, прощавайте, ако имате нещо против някого. Тогава вашият Баща в небесата също ще прости греховете ви.“ 26 [a]

Откъде идва властта на Исус

(Мат. 21:23-27; Лк. 20:1-8)

27 Исус и учениците му отново дойдоха в Ерусалим. Когато влязоха в храма, главните свещеници, законоучителите и юдейските водачи се приближиха до Исус 28 и му казаха: „С чия власт вършиш тези неща? И кой ти я даде да ги вършиш?“

29 Исус им каза: „Ще ви задам един въпрос и ако ми отговорите, ще ви кажа с чия власт върша всичко това. 30 Откъде беше Йоановото кръщение — от Бога или от хората? Отговорете ми!“

31 Те взеха да обсъждат това помежду си, разсъждавайки: „Ако отговорим „От Бога“, той ще каже: „Защо тогава не му повярвахте?“ 32 А как да му кажем: «От хората»?“ Те се страхуваха от народа, тъй като всички вярваха, че Йоан действително е бил пророк. 33 Затова отговориха: „Не знаем.“

Исус им каза: „Тогава и аз няма да ви кажа с чия власт върша това.“

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)

11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany(C) at the Mount of Olives,(D) Jesus sent two of his disciples, saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden.(E) Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”

They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(F) As they untied it, some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,

“Hosanna![a]

“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”[b](G)

10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”

“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”(H)

11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.(I)

Jesus Curses a Fig Tree and Clears the Temple Courts(J)(K)(L)

12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.(M) 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.

15 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, 16 and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17 And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’[c]?(N) But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’[d](O)

18 The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him,(P) because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.(Q)

19 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[e] went out of the city.(R)

20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(S) look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”

22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[f] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.(T) 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.(U) 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”(V) [26] [g]

The Authority of Jesus Questioned(W)

27 They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”

29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”

31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’ …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)(X)

33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”

Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”

11 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,

And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.

And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.

And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.

And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?

And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.

And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.

And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.

And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.

11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:

13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.

14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;

16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.

17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.

18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.

19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.

20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

27 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,

28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?

29 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

30 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.

31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?

32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.

33 And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

The Triumphal Entry(A)

11 Now (B)when they drew near Jerusalem, to [a]Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples; and He said to them, “Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it. And if anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it,’ and immediately he will send it here.”

So they went their way, and found [b]the colt tied by the door outside on the street, and they loosed it. But some of those who stood there said to them, “What are you doing, loosing the colt?”

And they spoke to them just as Jesus had commanded. So they let them go. Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it. (C)And many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying:

“Hosanna!
(D)‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
10 Blessed is the kingdom of our father David
That comes [c]in the name of the Lord!
(E)Hosanna in the highest!”

11 (F)And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into the temple. So when He had looked around at all things, as the hour was already late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

The Fig Tree Withered(G)

12 (H)Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 (I)And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.”

And His disciples heard it.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple(J)

15 (K)So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold (L)doves. 16 And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple. 17 Then He taught, saying to them, “Is it not written, (M)‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it a (N)‘den of thieves.’

18 And (O)the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they feared Him, because (P)all the people were astonished at His teaching. 19 When evening had come, He went out of the city.

The Lesson of the Withered Fig Tree(Q)

20 (R)Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.”

22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. 23 For (S)assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, (T)whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Forgiveness and Prayer(U)

25 “And whenever you stand praying, (V)if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. 26 [d]But (W)if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”

Jesus’ Authority Questioned(X)

27 Then they came again to Jerusalem. (Y)And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to Him. 28 And they said to Him, “By what (Z)authority are You doing these things? And who gave You this authority to do these things?”

29 But Jesus answered and said to them, “I also will ask you one question; then answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things: 30 The (AA)baptism of John—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me.”

31 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘From men’ ”—they feared the people, for (AB)all counted John to have been a prophet indeed. 33 So they answered and said to Jesus, “We do not know.”

And Jesus answered and said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
