The Triumphal Entry

11 (A)Now when they drew near to Jerusalem, to (B)Bethphage and Bethany, at (C)the Mount of Olives, Jesus[a] sent (D)two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, (E)on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it. If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.’” And they went away and found a colt tied at a door outside in the street, and they untied it. And some of those standing there said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?” And they told them what Jesus had said, and they let them go. And they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it. And many (F)spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields. And those who went before and those who followed were shouting, (G)“Hosanna! (H)Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! 10 Blessed is (I)the coming (J)kingdom of (K)our father (L)David! (M)Hosanna (N)in the highest!”

11 (O)And he entered Jerusalem and went into the temple. And when he had looked around at everything, as it was already late, (P)he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

Jesus Curses the Fig Tree

12 (Q)On the following day, when they came from Bethany, (R)he was hungry. 13 (S)And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for (T)it was not the season for figs. 14 And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple

15 (U)And they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of (V)the money-changers and the seats of those who sold (W)pigeons. 16 And he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple. 17 And he was teaching them and saying to them, “Is it not written, (X)‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But (Y)you have made it a den of robbers.” 18 And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and (Z)were seeking a way to destroy him, for they feared him, because (AA)all the crowd was astonished at his teaching. 19 (AB)And when evening came they[b] went out of the city.

The Lesson from the Withered Fig Tree

20 (AC)As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. 21 And Peter remembered and said to him, (AD)“Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.” 22 And Jesus answered them, “Have (AE)faith in God. 23 (AF)Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, (AG)‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea’, and does not (AH)doubt in his heart, but (AI)believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him. 24 Therefore I tell you, (AJ)whatever you ask in prayer, (AK)believe that you (AL)have received[c] it, and it will be yours. 25 And whenever (AM)you stand praying, (AN)forgive, (AO)if you have anything against anyone, so that (AP)your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.”[d]

The Authority of Jesus Challenged

27 (AQ)And they came again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to him, 28 and they said to him, (AR)“By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?” 29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. 30 Was the baptism of John (AS)from heaven or from man? Answer me.” 31 And they discussed it with one another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven’, he will say, (AT)‘Why then did you not believe him?’ 32 But shall we say, ‘From man’?”—(AU)they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John really was (AV)a prophet. 33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

11 Tani kur iu afruan Jeruzalemit, drejt Betfage dhe Betania, afër malit të Ullinjve, Jezusi dërgoi dy nga dishepujt e vet,

duke u thënë: “Shkoni në fshatin përballë dhe, posa të hyni aty, do të gjeni një kërriç të lidhur, mbi të cilin akoma nuk ka hipur askush; zgjidheni dhe ma sillni.

Dhe në se ndokush iu thotë: "Pse po veproni kështu?," përgjigjuni: "I duhet Zotit. Ai do ta kthejë menjëherë këtu".”

Ata shkuan dhe e gjetën kërriçin të lidhur afër një dere, në rrugë, dhe e zgjidhën.

Disa nga të pranishmit u thanë atyre: “Ç’po bëni? Pse po e zgjidhni kërriçin?.”

Këta iu përgjigjën ashtu si u kishte thënë Jezusi dhe ata i lanë të shkojnë.

Atëherë ia çuan Jezusit kërriçin, vunë mbi të mantelet e tyre dhe ai u ul mbi të.

Shumë njerëz i shtronin rrobat e tyre rrugës dhe të tjerë pritnin degë nga pemët dhe i hidhnin rrugës.

Dhe si ata që pararendnin, edhe ata që ndiqnin Jezusin, thërrisnin dhe thonin: “Hosana! Bekuar është ai që vjen në emër të Zotit!

10 E bekuar është mbretëria e Davidit, atit tonë, që vjen në emër të Zotit. Hosana në vendet shumë të larta!.”

11 Kështu hyri Jezusi në Jeruzalem dhe në tempull; dhe, mbasi shikoi mirë çdo gjë, duke qenë se ishte vonë, doli bashkë me të dymbëdhjetët në drejtim të Betanias.

12 Të nesërmen, kur dolën nga Betania, ai kishte uri.

13 Dhe, duke parë nga larg një fik që kishte gjethe, shkoi për të parë në se mund të gjente diçka atje; por, kur iu afrua, s’gjeti asgjë përveç gjetheve, sepse nuk ishte koha e fiqve.

14 Atëherë Jezusi, duke iu drejtuar fikut, tha: “Askush mos ngrëntë kurrë fryt prej teje përjetë.” Dhe dishepujt e tij e dëgjuan.

15 Kështu arritën në Jeruzalem. Dhe Jezusi, mbasi hyri në tempull, filloi t’i dëbojë ata që shisnin dhe blinin brenda tempullit dhe përmbysi tavolinat e këmbyesve të parave dhe ndenjëset e shitësve të pëllumbave.

16 Dhe nuk lejoi asnjë që të mbartte sende nëpër tempull.

17 Dhe i mësonte duke u thënë atyre: “Vallë nuk është shkruar: "Shtëpia ime do të quhet shtëpi e lutjes për të gjithë kombet"? Ju, përkundrazi, e keni bërë shpellë kusarësh!.”

18 Tani skribët dhe krerët e priftërinjve kur i dëgjuan këto fjalë kërkonin mënyrën se si ta vrisnin, por kishin frikë prej tij, sepse gjithë turma ishte e mahnitur nga doktrina e tij.

19 Dhe kur u bë darkë, Jezusi doli jashtë qytetit.

20 Të nesërmen në mengjes, duke kaluar, panë se fiku ishte tharë me gjithë rrënjë.

21 Dhe Pjetri, duke u kujtuar, i tha: “Mësues, ja, fiku që ti mallkove qenka tharë.”

22 Atëherë Jezusi, duke u përgjigjur, u tha atyre: “Kini besimin e Perëndisë!

23 Sepse ju them në të vërtetë se nëse dikush do t’i thotë këtij mali: Luaj vendit dhe hidhu në det,," dhe nuk do të ketë dyshime në zemër të vet, por do të besojë se ajo që po thotë do të ndodhë, çdo gjë që të thotë do t’i bëhet.

24 Prandaj po ju them: Të gjitha ato që ju kërkoni duke lutur, besoni se do t’i merrni dhe ju do t’i merrni.

25 Dhe kur nisni të luteni, nëse keni diçka kundër ndokujt, faleni, që edhe Ati juaj që është në qiejt, t’ju falë mëkatet tuaja.

26 Por në se ju nuk falni, as Ati juaj, që është në qiejt, nuk do t’jua falë mëkatet tuaja.”

27 Pastaj ata erdhën përsëri në Jeruzalem; dhe ndërsa ai po ecte nëpër tempull, krerët e priftërinjve, skribët dhe pleqtë iu afruan,

28 dhe i thanë: “Me ç’pushtet i bën ti këto gjëra? Kush ta dha këtë pushtet për t’i kryer këto gjëra?.”

29 Dhe Jezusi, duke u përgjigjur, u tha atyre: “Edhe unë do t’ju pyes diçka; më jepni përgjigje, pra, dhe unë do t’ju them me ç’pushtet i bëj këto gjëra.

30 Pagëzimi i Gjonit a ishte nga qielli apo nga njerëzit? Më jepni përgjigje.

31 Ata filluan të arsyetonin midis tyre: “Po të themi "nga qielli," ai do të thotë: "Atëherë pse ju nuk i besuat?".

32 Por po t’i themi "nga njerëzit," kemi frikë nga populli, sepse të gjithë e konsideronin Gjonin se ishte me të vërtetë një profet.”

33 Prandaj, duke iu përgjigjur, i thanë Jezusit: “Nuk e dimë.” Dhe Jezusi duke u përgjigjur, u tha atyre: “As unë nuk po ju them se me çfarë pushteti i bëj këto gjëra.”

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)

11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany(C) at the Mount of Olives,(D) Jesus sent two of his disciples, saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden.(E) Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”

They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(F) As they untied it, some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,

“Hosanna![a]

“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”[b](G)

10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”

“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”(H)

11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.(I)

Jesus Curses a Fig Tree and Clears the Temple Courts(J)(K)(L)

12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.(M) 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.

15 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, 16 and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17 And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’[c]?(N) But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’[d](O)

18 The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him,(P) because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.(Q)

19 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[e] went out of the city.(R)

20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(S) look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”

22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[f] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.(T) 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.(U) 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”(V) [26] [g]

The Authority of Jesus Questioned(W)

27 They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”

29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”

31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’ …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)(X)

33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”

Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”

Der Einzug des Messias Jesus in Jerusalem

11 Und als sie sich Jerusalem näherten und nach Bethphage und Bethanien an den Ölberg kamen, sandte er zwei seiner Jünger

und sprach zu ihnen: Geht in das Dorf, das vor euch liegt, und sobald ihr dort hineinkommt, werdet ihr ein Füllen angebunden finden, auf dem nie ein Mensch gesessen hat; bindet es los und führt es her!

Und wenn jemand zu euch sagt: Warum tut ihr das?, so sprecht: Der Herr braucht es!, so wird er es sogleich hierher senden.

Sie aber gingen hin und fanden das Füllen angebunden an dem Tor draußen am Scheideweg und banden es los.

Und etliche der Umstehenden sprachen zu ihnen: Was macht ihr da, dass ihr das Füllen losbindet?

Sie aber redeten zu ihnen, wie Jesus befohlen hatte, und sie ließen es ihnen.

Und sie führten das Füllen zu Jesus und legten ihre Kleider darauf, und er setzte sich darauf.

Da breiteten viele ihre Kleider aus auf dem Weg, andere aber hieben Zweige von den Bäumen und streuten sie auf den Weg.

Und die vorausgingen und die nachfolgten, riefen und sprachen: »Hosianna! Gepriesen sei der, welcher kommt im Namen des Herrn!«[a]

10 Gepriesen sei das Reich unseres Vaters David, das kommt im Namen des Herrn! Hosianna in der Höhe!

11 Und Jesus zog ein in Jerusalem und in den Tempel. Und nachdem er alles betrachtet hatte, ging er, da die Stunde schon vorgerückt war, mit den Zwölfen hinaus nach Bethanien.

Der unfruchtbare Feigenbaum. Die zweite Tempelreinigung. Die Macht des Glaubens

12 Und als sie am folgenden Tag Bethanien verließen, hatte er Hunger.

13 Und als er von fern einen Feigenbaum sah, der Blätter hatte, ging er hin, ob er etwas daran finden würde. Und als er zu ihm kam, fand er nichts als Blätter; denn es war nicht die Zeit der Feigen.[b]

14 Und Jesus begann und sprach zu ihm: Es esse in Ewigkeit niemand mehr eine Frucht von dir! Und seine Jünger hörten es.

15 Und sie kamen nach Jerusalem. Und Jesus ging in den Tempel und begann die hinauszutreiben, die im Tempel verkauften und kauften; und er stieß die Tische der Wechsler um und die Stühle der Taubenverkäufer.

16 Und er ließ nicht zu, dass jemand ein Gerät durch den Tempel trug.

17 Und er lehrte und sprach zu ihnen: Steht nicht geschrieben: »Mein Haus soll ein Bethaus für alle Völker genannt werden«?[c] Ihr aber habt eine Räuberhöhle daraus gemacht!

18 Und die Schriftgelehrten und die obersten Priester hörten es und suchten, wie sie ihn umbringen könnten; denn sie fürchteten ihn, weil die ganze Volksmenge über seine Lehre staunte.

19 Und als es Abend geworden war, ging er aus der Stadt hinaus.

20 Und als sie am Morgen vorbeikamen, sahen sie, dass der Feigenbaum von den Wurzeln an verdorrt war.

21 Und Petrus erinnerte sich und sprach zu ihm: Rabbi, siehe, der Feigenbaum, den du verflucht hast, ist verdorrt!

22 Und Jesus antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Habt Glauben an Gott!

23 Denn wahrlich, ich sage euch: Wenn jemand zu diesem Berg spricht: Hebe dich und wirf dich ins Meer!, und in seinem Herzen nicht zweifelt, sondern glaubt, dass das, was er sagt, geschieht, so wird ihm zuteilwerden, was immer er sagt.

24 Darum sage ich euch: Alles, was ihr auch immer im Gebet erbittet, glaubt, dass ihr es empfangt, so wird es euch zuteilwerden!

25 Und wenn ihr dasteht und betet, so vergebt, wenn ihr etwas gegen jemand habt, damit auch euer Vater im Himmel euch eure Verfehlungen vergibt.

26 Wenn ihr aber nicht vergebt, so wird auch euer Vater im Himmel eure Verfehlungen nicht vergeben.

Die Frage nach der Vollmacht Jesu

27 Und sie kamen wiederum nach Jerusalem. Und als er im Tempel umherging, traten die obersten Priester und die Schriftgelehrten und die Ältesten zu ihm

28 und sprachen zu ihm: In welcher Vollmacht tust du dies? Und wer hat dir diese Vollmacht gegeben, dies zu tun?

29 Jesus aber antwortete und sprach zu ihnen: Auch ich will euch ein Wort fragen; wenn ihr mir antwortet, so will ich euch sagen, in welcher Vollmacht ich dies tue.

30 War die Taufe des Johannes vom Himmel oder von Menschen? Antwortet mir!

31 Und sie überlegten bei sich selbst und sprachen: Wenn wir sagen: Vom Himmel, so wird er fragen: Warum habt ihr ihm dann nicht geglaubt?

32 Wenn wir aber sagen: Von Menschen — da fürchteten sie das Volk; denn alle meinten, dass Johannes wirklich ein Prophet gewesen war.

33 Und sie antworten Jesus und sprachen: Wir wissen es nicht! Da erwiderte Jesus und sprach zu ihnen: So sage ich euch auch nicht, in welcher Vollmacht ich dies tue!
