Mark 11
King James Version
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.”

The Message
Entering Jerusalem on a Colt
11 1-3 When they were nearing Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany on Mount Olives, he sent off two of the disciples with instructions: “Go to the village across from you. As soon as you enter, you’ll find a colt tethered, one that has never yet been ridden. Untie it and bring it. If anyone asks, ‘What are you doing?’ say, ‘The Master needs him, and will return him right away.’”
4-7 They went and found a colt tied to a door at the street corner and untied it. Some of those standing there said, “What are you doing untying that colt?” The disciples replied exactly as Jesus had instructed them, and the people let them alone. They brought the colt to Jesus, spread their coats on it, and he mounted.
8-10 The people gave him a wonderful welcome, some throwing their coats on the street, others spreading out rushes they had cut in the fields. Running ahead and following after, they were calling out,
Hosanna!
Blessed is he who comes in God’s name!
Blessed the coming kingdom of our father David!
Hosanna in highest heaven!
11 He entered Jerusalem, then entered the Temple. He looked around, taking it all in. But by now it was late, so he went back to Bethany with the Twelve.
The Cursed Fig Tree
12-14 As they left Bethany the next day, he was hungry. Off in the distance he saw a fig tree in full leaf. He came up to it expecting to find something for breakfast, but found nothing but fig leaves. (It wasn’t yet the season for figs.) He addressed the tree: “No one is going to eat fruit from you again—ever!” And his disciples overheard him.
15-17 They arrived at Jerusalem. Immediately on entering the Temple Jesus started throwing out everyone who had set up shop there, buying and selling. He kicked over the tables of the bankers and the stalls of the pigeon merchants. He didn’t let anyone even carry a basket through the Temple. And then he taught them, quoting this text:
My house was designated a house of prayer for the nations;
You’ve turned it into a hangout for thieves.
18 The high priests and religion scholars heard what was going on and plotted how they might get rid of him. They panicked, for the entire crowd was carried away by his teaching.
19 At evening, Jesus and his disciples left the city.
20-21 In the morning, walking along the road, they saw the fig tree, shriveled to a dry stick. Peter, remembering what had happened the previous day, said to him, “Rabbi, look—the fig tree you cursed is shriveled up!”
22-25 Jesus was matter-of-fact: “Embrace this God-life. Really embrace it, and nothing will be too much for you. This mountain, for instance: Just say, ‘Go jump in the lake’—no shuffling or hemming and hawing—and it’s as good as done. That’s why I urge you to pray for absolutely everything, ranging from small to large. Include everything as you embrace this God-life, and you’ll get God’s everything. And when you assume the posture of prayer, remember that it’s not all asking. If you have anything against someone, forgive—only then will your heavenly Father be inclined to also wipe your slate clean of sins.”
His Credentials
27-28 Then when they were back in Jerusalem once again, as they were walking through the Temple, the high priests, religion scholars, and leaders came up and demanded, “Show us your credentials. Who authorized you to speak and act like this?”
29-30 Jesus responded, “First let me ask you a question. Answer my question and then I’ll present my credentials. About the baptism of John—who authorized it: heaven or humans? Tell me.”
31-33 They were on the spot, and knew it. They pulled back into a huddle and whispered, “If we say ‘heaven,’ he’ll ask us why we didn’t believe John; if we say ‘humans,’ we’ll be up against it with the people because they all hold John up as a prophet.” They decided to concede that round to Jesus. “We don’t know,” they said.
Jesus replied, “Then I won’t answer your question either.”

11 وَلَمَّا اقْتَرَبُوا مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، إِذْ وَصَلُوا إِلَى قَرْيَةِ بَيْتِ فَاجِي وَقَرْيَةِ بَيْتِ عَنْيَا، عِنْدَ جَبَلِ الزَّيْتُونِ، أَرْسَلَ يَسُوعُ اثْنَيْنِ مِنْ تَلامِيذِهِ، 2 قَائِلاً لَهُمَا: «اذْهَبَا إِلَى الْقَرْيَةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ لَكُمَا، وَإذْ تَدْخُلانِ إِلَيْهَا، تَجِدَانِ جَحْشاً مَرْبُوطاً لَمْ يَرْكَبْ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ بَعْدُ: فَحُلّا رِبَاطَهُ وَأَحْضِرَاهُ إِلَى هُنَا. 3 وَإِنْ قَالَ لَكُمَا أَحَدٌ: لِمَاذَا تَفْعَلانِ هَذَا؟ فَقُولا: الرَّبُّ مُحْتَاجٌ إِلَيْهِ، وَفِي الْحَالِ يُرْسِلُهُ إِلَى هُنَا». 4 وَانْطَلَقَا، فَوَجَدَا الْجَحْشَ مَرْبُوطاً عِنْدَ الْبَابِ خَارِجاً عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ، فَحَلّا رِبَاطَهُ. 5 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا بَعْضُ الْوَاقِفِينَ هُنَاكَ: «مَاذَا تَفْعَلانِ؟ لِمَاذَا تَحُلّانِ رِبَاطَ الْجَحْشِ؟» 6 فَأَجَابَاهُمْ كَمَا أَوْصَاهُمَا يَسُوعُ فَتَرَكُوهُمَا. 7 فَأَحْضَرَا الْجَحْشَ إِلَى يَسُوعَ، وَوَضَعَا ثِيَابَهُمَا عَلَيْهِ، فَرَكِبَ عَلَيْهِ. 8 وَفَرَشَ كَثِيرُونَ الطَّرِيقَ بِثِيَابِهِمْ وَآخَرُونَ بِأَغْصَانٍ قَطَعُوهَا مِنَ الْحُقُولِ. 9 وَأَخَذَ السَّائِرُونَ أَمَامَهُ وَالسَّائِرُونَ خَلْفَهُ يَهْتِفُونَ: «أُوصَنَّا! مُبَارَكٌ الآتِي بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ! 10 مُبَارَكَةٌ مَمْلَكَةُ أَبِينَا دَاوُدَ الآتِيَةُ! أُوصَنَّا فِي الأَعَالِي!»
11 ثُمَّ دَخَلَ يَسُوعُ أُورُشَلِيمَ، حَتَّى وَصَلَ إِلَى الْهَيْكَلِ، وَرَاقَبَ كُلَّ مَا كَانَ يَجْرِي فِيهِ. وَإِذْ كَانَ الْمَسَاءُ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ، خَرَجَ إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا مَعَ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ.
يسوع يلعن شجرة التين ويطهر الهيكل
12 وَفِي الْغَدِ، بَعْدَمَا غَادَرُوا بَيْتَ عَنْيَا، جَاعَ. 13 وَإِذْ رَأَى مِنْ بَعِيدٍ شَجَرَةَ تِينٍ مُورِقَةً، تَوَجَّهَ إِلَيْهَا لَعَلَّهُ يَجِدُ فِيهَا بَعْضَ الثَّمَرِ. فَلَمَّا وَصَلَ إِلَيْهَا لَمْ يَجِدْ فِيهَا إِلّا الْوَرَقَ، لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ أَوَانُ التِّينِ. 14 فَتَكَلَّمَ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «لا يَأْكُلَنَّ أَحَدٌ ثَمَراً مِنْكِ بَعْدُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ!» وَسَمِعَ تَلامِيذُهُ ذلِكَ.
15 وَوَصَلُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَدَخَلَ يَسُوعُ الْهَيْكَلَ وَأَخَذَ يَطْرُدُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَبِيعُونَ وَالَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَشْتَرُونَ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ، وَقَلَّبَ مَوَائِدَ الصَّيَارِفَةِ وَمَقَاعِدَ بَاعَةِ الْحَمَامِ. 16 وَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَحَداً يَمُرُّ عَبْرَ الْهَيْكَلِ وَهُوَ يَحْمِلُ مَتَاعاً. 17 وَعَلَّمَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «أَمَا كُتِبَ: إِنَّ بَيْتِي بَيْتاً لِلصَّلاةِ يُدْعَى عِنْدَ جَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ؟ أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَقَدْ جَعَلْتُمُوهُ مَغَارَةَ لُصُوصٍ!» 18 وَسَمِعَ بِذلِكَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَالْكَتَبَةُ، فَأَخَذُوا يَبْحَثُونَ كَيْفَ يَقْتُلُونَهُ: فَإِنَّهُمْ خَافُوهُ، لأَنَّ الْجَمْعَ كُلَّهُ كَانَ مَذْهُولاً مِنْ تَعْلِيمِهِ. 19 وَلَمَّا حَلَّ الْمَسَاءُ، انْطَلَقُوا إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمَدِينَةِ.
20 وَبَيْنَمَا كَانُوا عَابِرِينَ فِي صَبَاحِ الْغَدِ بَاكِراً، رَأَوْا شَجَرَةَ التِّينِ وَقَدْ يَبِسَتْ مِنْ أَصْلِهَا. 21 فَتَذَكَّرَ بُطْرُسُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، انْظُرْ! إِنَّ التِّينَةَ الَّتِي لَعَنْتَهَا قَدْ يَبِسَتْ!» 22 فَرَدَّ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً لَهُمْ: «لِيَكُنْ لَكُمْ إِيْمَانٌ بِاللهِ! 23 فَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ أَيَّ مَنْ قَالَ لِهذَا الْجَبَلِ: انْقَلِعْ وَانْطَرِحْ فِي الْبَحْرِ! وَلا يَشُكُّ فِي قَلْبِهِ، بَلْ يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّ مَا يَقُولُهُ سَيَحْدُثُ، فَمَا يَقُولُهُ يَتِمُّ لَهُ. 24 لِهذَا السَّبَبِ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ مَا تَطْلُبُونَهُ وَتُصَلُّونَ لأَجْلِهِ، فَآمِنُوا أَنَّكُمْ قَدْ نِلْتُمُوهُ، فَيَتِمَّ لَكُمْ. 25 وَمَتَى وَقَفْتُمْ تُصَلُّونَ، وَكَانَ لَكُمْ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَيْءٌ، فَاغْفِرُوا لَهُ، لِكَيْ يَغْفِرَ لَكُمْ أَبُوكُمُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ زَلاتِكُمْ أَيْضاً. 26 وَلكِنْ، إِنْ لَمْ تَغْفِرُوا، لَا يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ أَيْضاً أَبُوكُمُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ زَلاتِكُمْ».
سلطة يسوع
27 ثُمَّ عَادُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى. وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ يَتَجَوَّلُ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ، تَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَالْكَتَبَةُ، وَالشُّيُوخُ، 28 وَسَأَلُوهُ: «بِأَيَّةِ سُلْطَةٍ تَفْعَلُ مَا فَعَلْتَهُ؟ وَمَنْ مَنَحَكَ هذِهِ السُّلْطَةَ لِتَفْعَلَ ذلِكَ؟» 29 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «وَأَنَا أَيْضاً أَسْأَلُكُمْ أَمْراً وَاحِداً. أَجِيبُونِي، فَأَقُولَ لَكُمْ بِأَيَّةِ سُلْطَةٍ أَفْعَلُ تِلْكَ الأُمُورَ: 30 أَمِنَ السَّمَاءِ كَانَتْ مَعْمُودِيَّةُ يُوحَنَّا أَمْ مِنَ النَّاسِ؟ أَجِيبُونِي!» 31 فَتَشَاوَرُوا فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ، قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ قُلْنَا: مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، يَقُولُ: إِذَنْ لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ؟ 32 فَهَلْ نَقُولُ: مِنَ النَّاسِ؟» فَإِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَخَافُونَ الشَّعْبَ لأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا جَمِيعاً يَعْتَبِرُونَ أَنَّ يُوحَنَّا نَبِيٌّ حَقّاً. 33 فَأَجَابُوا يَسُوعَ قَائِلِينَ: «لا نَدْرِي!» فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «وَلا أَنَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ بِأَيَّةِ سُلْطَةٍ أَفْعَلُ تِلْكَ الأُمُورَ!»
