John 12:12-19
21st Century King James Version
12 On the next day many people who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet Him and cried, “Hosanna! Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord!”
14 And Jesus, when He had found a young ass, sat thereon, as it is written:
15 “Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass’s colt.”
16 These things His disciples understood not at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things unto Him.
17 The people therefore who were with Him, when He called Lazarus out of his grave and raised him from the dead, bore record.
18 For this cause the people also met Him, for they heard that He had done this miracle.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “Perceive ye how ye prevail not at all? Behold, the world has gone after him!”

John 12:12-19
New International Version
Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)
12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem. 13 They took palm branches(B) and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna![a]”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”(D)
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written:
16 At first his disciples did not understand all this.(F) Only after Jesus was glorified(G) did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him.
17 Now the crowd that was with him(H) when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word. 18 Many people, because they had heard that he had performed this sign,(I) went out to meet him. 19 So the Pharisees said to one another, “See, this is getting us nowhere. Look how the whole world has gone after him!”(J)
