Matthew 21:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 And brought the ass and the colt, and put on them their [a]clothes, and set him [b]thereon.
8 And a great multitude spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 Moreover, the people that went before, and they also that followed, cried, saying, [c]Hosanna to the Son of David, [d]Blessed be he that cometh in the Name of the Lord, Hosanna thou which art in the highest heavens.
