019:028 After thus speaking, He journeyed onward, proceeding up to Jerusalem.
019:029 And when he was come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount
called the Oliveyard, He sent two of the disciples on in front,
019:030 saying to them, "Go into the village facing you. On entering it you
will find an ass's foal tied up which no one has ever yet ridden:
untie it, and bring it here.
019:031 And if any one asks you, `Why are you untying the colt?'
simply say, `The Master needs it.'"
019:032 So those who were sent went and found things as He had told them.
019:033 And while they were untying the colt the owners called out,
"Why are you untying the colt?"
019:034 and they replied, "The Master needs it."
019:035 Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their outer
garments on the colt they placed Jesus on it.
019:036 So He rode on, while they carpeted the road with their garments.
019:037 And when He was now getting near Jerusalem, and descending
the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began
in their joy to praise God in loud voices for all the mighty
deeds they had witnessed.
019:038 "Blessed is the King," they cried, "who comes in the name of
the Lord: in Heaven peace, and glory in the highest realms."
019:039 Thereupon some of the Pharisees in the crowd appealed to Him,
saying, "Rabbi, reprove your disciples."
019:040 "I tell you," He replied, "that if *they* became silent,
the very stones would cry out."
019:041 When He came into full view of the city, He wept aloud
over it, and exclaimed,
019:042 "O that at this time thou hadst known--yes even thou--
what makes peace possible! But now it is hid from thine eyes.
