1When they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethsphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
2saying to them, "Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them, and bring them to me.
3If anyone says anything to you, you will say, `The Lord needs them,` and immediately he will send them."
4All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
5"Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King comes to you, Humble, and riding on a donkey, On a colt, the foal of a donkey."
6The disciples went, and did just as Jesus commanded them,
7and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.
