John 12:11-13

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹¹ Because on account of him many of the Jews were going away [were withdrawing from and leaving the Judeans] and believing in and adhering to Jesus.

¹² The next day a vast crowd of those who had come to the Passover Feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

¹³ So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him. And as they went, they kept shouting, Hosanna! Blessed is He and praise to Him Who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!^(A)
