Mark 11

1 And, when they draw nigh to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, He sendeth two of His disciples, 2 and saith to them, 4 And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door without on the street; and they loose him. 5 And some of those standing there said to them, “What do ye, loosing the colt?" 6 And they said to them even as Jesus said; and they let them go. 7 And they bring the colt to Jesus, and cast on him their garments; and He sat on him. 8 And many spread their garments in the way; and others branches, having cut them from the fields. 9 And those going before, and those following, were crying, “Hosanna! Blessed is He That cometh in the name of the Lord! 10 Blessed is the coming Kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the Highest!" 11 And He entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and, having looked around on all things, the hour being late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the morrow, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 And, seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, He came, if perhaps He might find something thereon.
