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 2 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. 3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.’” 4 And they went away and found a colt tied at a door outside in the street, and they untied it. 5 And some of those standing there said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?” 6 And they told them what Jesus had said, and they let them go. 7 And they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it. 8 And many (F)spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields. 9 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.”

Markuksen 11
Raamattu 1933/38
11 Ja kun he lähestyivät Jerusalemia, tullen Beetfageen ja Betaniaan Öljymäelle, lähetti hän kaksi opetuslastaan
2 ja sanoi heille: "Menkää kylään, joka on edessänne, niin te kohta, kun sinne tulette, löydätte sidottuna varsan, jonka selässä ei yksikään ihminen vielä ole istunut; päästäkää se ja tuokaa tänne.
3 Ja jos joku teille sanoo: 'Miksi te noin teette?', niin sanokaa: 'Herra tarvitsee sitä ja lähettää sen kohta tänne takaisin'."
4 Niin he menivät ja löysivät oven eteen ulos kujalle sidotun varsan ja päästivät sen.
5 Ja muutamat niistä, jotka siellä seisoivat, sanoivat heille: "Mitä te teette, kun päästätte varsan?"
6 Niin he sanoivat heille, niinkuin Jeesus oli käskenyt; ja he antoivat heidän mennä.
7 Ja he toivat varsan Jeesuksen luo ja heittivät vaatteensa sen päälle, ja hän istui sen selkään.
8 Ja monet levittivät vaatteensa tielle, ja toiset lehviä, joita katkoivat kedoilta.
9 Ja ne, jotka kulkivat edellä, ja jotka seurasivat, huusivat: "Hoosianna, siunattu olkoon hän, joka tulee Herran nimeen!
10 Siunattu olkoon isämme Daavidin valtakunta, joka tulee. Hoosianna korkeuksissa!"
11 Ja hän kulki sisälle Jerusalemiin ja meni pyhäkköön; ja katseltuaan kaikkea hän lähti niiden kahdentoista kanssa Betaniaan, sillä aika oli jo myöhäinen.
12 Kun he seuraavana päivänä lähtivät Betaniasta, oli hänen nälkä.
13 Ja kun hän kaukaa näki viikunapuun, jossa oli lehtiä, meni hän katsomaan, löytäisikö ehkä jotakin siitä; mutta tultuaan sen luo hän ei löytänyt muuta kuin lehtiä. Sillä silloin ei ollut viikunain aika.
14 Niin hän puhui ja sanoi sille: "Älköön ikinä enää kukaan sinusta hedelmää syökö". Ja hänen opetuslapsensa kuulivat sen.
15 Ja he tulivat Jerusalemiin. Ja hän meni pyhäkköön ja rupesi ajamaan ulos niitä, jotka myivät ja ostivat pyhäkössä, ja kaatoi kumoon rahanvaihtajain pöydät ja kyyhkysten myyjäin istuimet,
16 eikä sallinut kenenkään kantaa mitään astiaa pyhäkön kautta.
17 Ja hän opetti ja sanoi heille: "Eikö ole kirjoitettu: 'Minun huoneeni on kutsuttava kaikkien kansojen rukoushuoneeksi'? Mutta te olette tehneet siitä ryövärien luolan."
18 Ja ylipapit ja kirjanoppineet kuulivat sen ja miettivät, kuinka saisivat hänet surmatuksi; sillä he pelkäsivät häntä, koska kaikki kansa oli hämmästyksissään hänen opetuksestansa.
19 Illan tultua he menivät kaupungin ulkopuolelle.
20 Ja kun he varhain aamulla kulkivat ohi, näkivät he viikunapuun kuivettuneen juuria myöten.
21 Silloin Pietari muisti Jeesuksen sanat ja sanoi hänelle: "Rabbi, katso, viikunapuu, jonka sinä kirosit, on kuivettunut".
22 Jeesus vastasi ja sanoi heille: "Pitäkää usko Jumalaan.
23 Totisesti minä sanon teille: jos joku sanoisi tälle vuorelle: 'Kohoa ja heittäydy mereen', eikä epäilisi sydämessään, vaan uskoisi sen tapahtuvan, minkä hän sanoo, niin se hänelle tapahtuisi.
24 Sentähden minä sanon teille: kaikki, mitä te rukoilette ja anotte, uskokaa saaneenne, niin se on teille tuleva.
25 Ja kun te seisotte ja rukoilette, niin antakaa anteeksi, jos kenellä teistä on jotakin toistansa vastaan, että myös teidän Isänne, joka on taivaissa, antaisi teille anteeksi teidän rikkomuksenne."
27 Ja he tulivat taas Jerusalemiin. Ja kun hän käveli pyhäkössä, tulivat ylipapit ja kirjanoppineet ja vanhimmat hänen luoksensa
28 ja sanoivat hänelle: "Millä vallalla sinä näitä teet? Tahi kuka sinulle on antanut vallan näitä tehdä?"
29 Mutta Jeesus vastasi heille: "Minä myös teen teille yhden kysymyksen; vastatkaa te minulle, niin minä sanon teille, millä vallalla minä näitä teen.
30 Oliko Johanneksen kaste taivaasta vai ihmisistä? Vastatkaa minulle."
31 Niin he neuvottelivat keskenään sanoen: "Jos sanomme: 'Taivaasta', niin hän sanoo: 'Miksi ette siis uskoneet häntä?'
32 Vai sanommeko: 'Ihmisistä'?" - sitä he kansan tähden pelkäsivät sanoa, sillä kaikkien mielestä Johannes totisesti oli profeetta.
33 Ja he vastasivat ja sanoivat Jeesukselle: "Emme tiedä". Silloin Jeesus sanoi heille: "Niinpä en minäkään sano teille, millä vallalla minä näitä teen".

11 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
2 And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
27 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
29 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.
31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
33 And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

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, 2 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. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”
4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(F) As they untied it, 5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” 6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
“Hosanna![a]”
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.”
