The Triumphal Entry
12 The next day (A)the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 So they took branches of (B)palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, (C)“Hosanna! Blessed is (D)he who comes in the name of the Lord, even (E)the King of Israel!” 14 And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,
15 (F)“Fear not, daughter of Zion;
behold, your king is coming,
sitting on a donkey's colt!”

25 Save us, we pray, O Lord!
O Lord, we pray, give us success!
26 (A)Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
We (B)bless you from the house of the Lord.
27 The Lord is God,
and he has made (C)his light to shine upon us.
Bind the festal sacrifice with cords,
up to (D)the horns of the altar!

The Coming King of Zion
9 (A)Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem!
(B)Behold, (C)your king is coming to you;
righteous and having salvation is he,
(D)humble and mounted on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to (A)ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 The governor again said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.” 22 Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” (B)They all said, “Let him be crucified!” 23 And he said, “Why? (C)What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Let him be crucified!”
