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 En la sekvanta tago granda homamaso, veninte al la festo, kaj sciiĝinte, ke Jesuo venas al Jerusalem,
13 prenis branĉojn de la palmoj, kaj iris al li renkonte, kaj kriis:Hosana! Estu benata la Reĝo de Izrael, kiu venas en la nomo de la Eternulo!
14 Kaj Jesuo, trovinte junan azenon, sidis sur ĝi, kiel estas skribite:
15 Ne timu, filino de Cion:jen via Reĝo venas, sidanta sur ido de azeno.
16 Tion la disĉiploj unue ne komprenis; sed post la gloriĝo de Jesuo ili rememoris, ke tio estis skribita pri li kaj ke oni faris al li tion.
17 La homamaso do, kiu ĉeestis kun li, kiam li elvokis Lazaron el la tombo, kaj levis lin el la mortintoj, atestis pri li.
18 Pro tio ankaŭ la homamaso iris al li renkonte, ĉar ili sciiĝis, ke li faris tiun signon.
19 La Fariseoj do diris inter si:Vidu, kiel nenio prosperis al vi; jen la mondo eliris post li.
