12 The day after, a great number of people who were there for the feast, when they had the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13 Took branches of palm-trees and went out to him, crying, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!

14 And Jesus saw a young ass and took his seat on it; as the Writings say,

15 Have no fear, daughter of Zion: see your King is coming, seated on a young ass.

16 (These things were not clear to his disciples at first: but when Jesus had been lifted up into his glory, then it came to their minds that these things in the Writings were about him and that they had been done to him.)

17 Now the people who were with him when his voice came to Lazarus in the place of the dead, and gave him life again, had been talking about it.

18 And that was the reason the people went out to him, because it had come to their ears that he had done this sign.

19 Then the Pharisees said one to another, You see, you are unable to do anything: the world has gone after him.

12 No dia seguinte, ouvindo uma grande multidão, que viera à festa, que Jesus vinha a Jerusalém,

13 Tomaram ramos de palmeiras, e saíram-lhe ao encontro, e clamavam: Hosana! Bendito o Rei de Israel que vem em nome do Senhor.

14 E achou Jesus um jumentinho, e assentou-se sobre ele, como está escrito:

15 Não temas, ó filha de Sião; eis que o teu Rei vem assentado sobre o filho de uma jumenta.

16 Os seus discípulos, porém, não entenderam isto no princípio; mas, quando Jesus foi glorificado, então se lembraram de que isto estava escrito dele, e que isto lhe fizeram.

17 A multidão, pois, que estava com ele quando Lázaro foi chamado da sepultura, testificava que ele o ressuscitara dentre os mortos.

18 Por isso também a multidão lhe saiu ao encontro, porque tinham ouvido que ele fizera este sinal.

19 Disseram, pois, os fariseus entre si: Vedes que nada aproveitais? Eis que toda a gente vai após ele.
