1 E, logo que se aproximaram de Jerusalém, de Betfagé e de Betânia, junto do Monte das Oliveiras, enviou dois dos seus discípulos,2 E disse-lhes: Ide à aldeia que está defronte de vós; e, logo que ali entrardes, encontrareis preso um jumentinho, sobre o qual ainda não montou homem algum; soltai-o, e trazei-mo.3 E, se alguém vos disser: Por que fazeis isso? Dizei-lhe que o Senhor precisa dele, e logo o deixará trazer para aqui.4 E foram, e encontraram o jumentinho preso fora da porta, entre dois caminhos, e o soltaram.5 E alguns dos que ali estavam lhes disseram: Que fazeis, soltando o jumentinho?6 Eles, porém, disseram-lhes como Jesus lhes tinha mandado; e deixaram-nos ir.7 E levaram o jumentinho a Jesus, e lançaram sobre ele as suas vestes, e assentou-se sobre ele.8 E muitos estendiam as suas vestes pelo caminho, e outros cortavam ramos das árvores, e os espalhavam pelo caminho.9 E aqueles que iam adiante, e os que seguiam, clamavam, dizendo: Hosana, bendito o que vem em nome do Senhor;10 Bendito o reino do nosso pai Davi, que vem em nome do Senhor. Hosana nas alturas.11 E Jesus entrou em Jerusalém, no templo e, tendo visto tudo em redor, como fosse já tarde, saiu para Betânia com os doze.

1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples, 2 And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him. 3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither. 4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him. 5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt? 6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. 7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him. 8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way. 9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: 10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest. 11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
