Mark - ch 11 v 1 - 20
- And when they draw nigh unto Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,
- and saith unto them, Go your way into the village that is over against you: and straightway as ye enter into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat; loose him, and bring him.
- And if any one say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye, The Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him back hither.
- And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door without in the open street; and they loose him.
- And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
- And they said unto them even as Jesus had said: and they let them go.
- And they bring the colt unto Jesus, and cast on him their garments; and he sat upon him.
- And many spread their garments upon the way; and others branches, which they had cut from the fields.
- And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, Hosanna; Blessed `is' he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
- Blessed `is' the kingdom that cometh, `the kingdom' of our father David: Hosanna in the highest.
- And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and when he had looked round about upon all things, it being now eventide, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
- And on the morrow, when they were come out from Bethany, he hungered.
- And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the season of figs.
- And he answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And his disciples heard it.
- And they come to Jerusalem: and he entered into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and them that bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;
- and he would not suffer that any man should carry a vessel through the temple.
- And he taught, and said unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but ye have made it a den of robbers.
- And the chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, for all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.
- And every evening he went forth out of the city.
- And as they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.
