When they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
2
and said to them, "Go your way into the village that is opposite you. Immediately as you enter into it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Untie him, and bring him.
3
If anyone asks you, `Why are you doing this?` say, `The Lord needs him;` and immediately he will send him back here."
4
They went away, and found a colt tied at the door outside in the open street, and they untied him.
5
Some of those who stood there asked them, "What are you doing, untying the colt?"
6
They said to them just as Jesus had said, and they let them go.
7
They brought the colt to Jesus, and threw their garments on him, and Jesus sat on him.
