Luke 19:28–40

²⁸And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem. ²⁹And it came to pass as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany at the mountain called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, ³⁰saying, Go into the village over against you, in which ye will find, on entering it, a colt tied up, on which no child of man ever sat at any time: loose it and lead it here. ³¹And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose it? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it. ³²And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them. ³³And as they were loosing the colt, its masters said to them, Why loose ye the colt? ³⁴And they said, Because the Lord has need of it. ³⁵And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on it. ³⁶And as he went, they strewed their clothes in the way. ³⁷And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud voice for all the works of power which they had seen, ³⁸saying, Blessed the King that comes in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. ³⁹And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples. ⁴⁰And he answering said to them, I say unto you, If these shall be silent, the stones will cry out.
