Luke 19:28–38

After Jesus had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

As He approached Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent out two of His disciples,

saying, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.

If anyone asks, ‘Why are you untying it?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it.’”

So those who were sent went out and found it just as Jesus had told them.

As they were untying the colt, its owners asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”

“The Lord needs it,” they answered.

Then they led the colt to Jesus, threw their cloaks over it, and put Jesus on it.

As He rode along, the people spread their cloaks on the road.

And as He approached the descent from the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of disciples began to praise God joyfully in a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen:

“Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
