12 The(A) next day, when the large crowd that had come to the festival heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, 13 they took palm branches(B) and went out to meet him. They kept shouting:
14 Jesus found a young donkey(F) and sat on it, just as it is written:

Jesus’ Triumphant Entry
12 The next day, the news that Jesus was on the way to Jerusalem swept through the city. A large crowd of Passover visitors 13 took palm branches and went down the road to meet him. They shouted,
“Praise God![a]
Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord!
Hail to the King of Israel!”[b]
14 Jesus found a young donkey and rode on it, fulfilling the prophecy that said:
15 “Don’t be afraid, people of Jerusalem.[c]
Look, your King is coming,
riding on a donkey’s colt.”[d]
16 His disciples didn’t understand at the time that this was a fulfillment of prophecy. But after Jesus entered into his glory, they remembered what had happened and realized that these things had been written about him.
