And when they drew near to Jerusalem and came into Bethphage, toward the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

saying to them, Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her. Loosening, lead them to Me.

And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, The Lord has need of them. And he will send them at once.

But all this happened that might be fulfilled that spoken by the prophet, saying:

"Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King comes to you, meek and mounted on an ass, even a colt, the son of an ass." Isa. 62:11; Zech. 9:9

And the disciples, having gone and having done as Jesus ordered them,

they led the ass and the colt. And they put on them their garments, and set Him on them.

And the very great crowd strewed their garments in the road. And others were cutting branches from the trees and were spreading them in the way.

And the crowd, the ones going before and the ones following, were crying out, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David! "Blessed is He coming in the name of the Lord"! Hosanna in the highest! Psa. 118:26

And as He entered into Jerusalem, all the city was shaken, saying, Who is this?

And the crowds said, This is Jesus, the Prophet, the One from Nazareth of Galilee.
