1. And when they drew near unto Jerusalem and were come to Bethphage unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
2. saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied and a colt with her; loose them and bring them unto me.
3. And if anyone says anything unto you, ye shall say, The Lord has need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4. All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
5. Say unto the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King comes unto thee, meek and sitting upon an ass and a colt the foal of a beast under yoke.
6. And the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them
