Matthew 21:5-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. "Tell the daughter of Zion: Behold, your king comes to you meekly, sitting on a donkey and on a colt, the son of one accustomed to the yoke."

6. Then the disciples, going out, did just as Jesus instructed them.

7. And they brought the donkey and the colt, and they laid their garments on them, and they helped him sit upon them.

8. Then a very numerous crowd spread their garments on the way. But others cut branches from the trees and scattered them on the way.

9. And the crowds that preceded him, and those that followed, cried out, saying: "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!"

10. And when he had entered into Jerusalem, the entire city was stirred up, saying, "Who is this?"

11. But the people were saying, "This is Jesus, the Prophet from Nazareth of Galilee."

12. And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and he cast out all who were selling and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of the vendors of doves.

13. And he said to them: "It is written: 'My house shall be called a house of prayer. But you have made it into a den of robbers.' "
