And, when they drew near unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the Mount of Olives, then, Jesus sent forth two disciples;

saying unto them - Be going into the village that is over against you, and, straightway, ye shall find an ass, bound, and a colt with her, - loose them, and lead them unto me.

And, if anyone, unto you, say aught, ye shall say - Their Lord, hath, need, - and, straightway, he will send them.

But, this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through the prophet, saying:

Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy King, is coming unto thee, meek and mounted upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of a toiling ass.

And the disciples, went, and did as Jesus directed them;

and led the ass and the colt, and laid upon them their garments, and he took his seat upon them.

And, the chief multitude, spread their own mantles in the way, and, others, were cutting off young branches from the trees, and spreading them in the way;

and the multitudes, they who were going before him and they who were following after, were crying aloud, saying - Hosanna! to the Son of David, Blessed is he that is coming in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest.

And, when he entered into Jerusalem, all the city was startled, saying - Who is this?

And, the multitudes, were saying - This, is the prophet Jesus, - He from Nazareth of Galilee.
