Luke 19:28-40
New American Standard Bible
Triumphal Entry
28 After Jesus said these things, He (A)was going on ahead, (B)going up to Jerusalem.
29 (C)When He approached Bethphage and (D)Bethany, near the [a]mountain that is called (E)Olivet, He sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village [b]ahead of you; there, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here. 31 And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘[c]The Lord has need of it.’” 32 So those who were sent left and found it just as He had told them. 33 And as they were untying the colt, its [d]owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” 34 They said, “[e]The Lord has need of it.” 35 And they brought it to Jesus, (F)and they threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 Now as He was going, they were spreading their cloaks on the road. 37 And as soon as He was approaching, near the descent of (G)the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to (H)praise God [f]joyfully with a loud voice for all the [g]miracles which they had seen, 38 [h]shouting:
“(I)Blessed is the (J)King, the One who comes in the name of the Lord;
Peace in heaven and (K)glory in the highest!”
39 (L)And yet some of the Pharisees [i]in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples!” 40 Jesus replied, “I tell you, if these stop speaking, (M)the stones will cry out!”

The Triumphal Entry(A)
28 When He had said this, (B)He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 (C)And it came to pass, when He drew near to [a]Bethphage and (D)Bethany, at the mountain called (E)Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. 31 And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing it?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of it.’ ”
32 So those who were sent went their way and found it just (F)as He had said to them. 33 But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, “Why are you loosing the colt?”
34 And they said, “The Lord has need of him.” 35 Then they brought him to Jesus. (G)And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him. 36 And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road.
37 Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to (H)rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, 38 saying:
(I)“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’
(J)Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
39 And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”
40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, (K)the stones would immediately cry out.”
