28 ¶ And when he had thus spoken, [a]he went forth before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
29 (A)[b]And it came to pass, when he was come near to Bethphage, and Bethany, besides the mount which is called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 Saying, Go ye to the town which is before you, wherein as soon as ye are come, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
31 And if any ask you, why ye loose him, thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
32 So they that were sent, went their way, and found it as he had said unto them.
33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
35 ¶ (B)So they brought him to Jesus, and they cast their garments on the colt, and set Jesus thereon.
36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
37 And when he was now come near to the going down of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice, and to praise God with a loud voice, for all the great works that they had seen,
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the Name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest places.
39 [c]Then some of the Pharisees of the company said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 But he answered, and said unto them, I tell you, that if these should hold their peace, the stones would cry.

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)
28 After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.(C) 29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany(D) at the hill called the Mount of Olives,(E) he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, 30 “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them.(F) 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.”
35 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks(G) on the road.
37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives,(H) the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:
“Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”(J)
39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”(K)
40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”(L)
