The Triumphal Entry

¹² On the next day ^(A)the large crowd who had come to ^(B)the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, ¹³ took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, and began to shout, “^(C)Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the ^[a]Lord, even the ^(D)King of Israel.” ¹⁴ And Jesus, finding a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written, ¹⁵ “^(E)Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King is coming, seated on a donkey’s colt.” ^16 (F)These things His disciples did not understand at the first; but when Jesus ^(G)was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about Him, and that they had done these things to Him. ¹⁷ So ^(H)the crowd, who was with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead, continued to bear witness about Him. ^18 (I)For this reason also the crowd went and met Him, ^(J)because they heard that He had done this ^[b]sign. ¹⁹ So the Pharisees said to one another, “You see that you are gaining nothing; look, the world has gone after Him.”
