Mark 11:1-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

11 And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,

² And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you, and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath sat: loose him, and bring him.

³ And if any man shall say to you, What are you doing? say ye that the Lord hath need of him: and immediately he will let him come hither.

⁴ And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate without, in the meeting of two ways: and they loose him.

⁵ And some of them that stood there, said to them: What do you loosing the colt?

⁶ Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them; and they let him go with them.

⁷ And they brought the colt to Jesus; and they lay their garments on him, and he sat upon him.

⁸ And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down boughs from the trees, and strewed them in the way.

⁹ And they that went before and they that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

¹⁰ Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that cometh: Hosanna in the highest.

¹¹ And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple: and having viewed all things round about, when now the eventide was come, he went out to Bethania with the twelve.
