28 And when he had said this, he went on in front of them, going up to Jerusalem.

29 And it came about that when he got near Beth-phage and Bethany by the mountain which is named the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,

30 Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.

31 And if anyone says to you, Why are you taking him? say, The Lord has need of him.

32 And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.

33 And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?

34 And they said, The Lord has need of him.

35 And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.

36 And while he went on his way they put their clothing down on the road in front of him.

37 And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;

38 Saying, A blessing on the King who comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees among the people said to him, Master, make your disciples be quiet.

40 And he said in answer, I say to you, if these men keep quiet, the very stones will be crying out.

28 Y dicho esto, iba delante subiendo á Jerusalem.

29 Y aconteció, que llegando cerca de Bethfagé, y de Bethania, al monte que se llama de las Olivas, envió dos de sus discípulos,

30 Diciendo: Id á la aldea de enfrente; en la cual como entrareis, hallaréis un pollino atado, en el que ningún hombre se ha sentado jamás; desatadlo, y traedlo.

31 Y si alguien os preguntare, ¿por qué lo desatáis? le responderéis así: Porque el Señor lo ha menester.

32 Y fueron los que habían sido enviados, y hallaron como les dijo.

33 Y desatando ellos el pollino, sus dueños les dijeron: ¿Por qué desatáis el pollino?

34 Y ellos dijeron: Porque el Señor lo ha menester.

35 Y trajéronlo á Jesús; y habiéndo echado sus vestidos sobre el pollino, pusieron á Jesús encima.

36 Y yendo él tendían sus capas por el camino.

37 Y como llegasen ya cerca de la bajada del monte de las Olivas, toda la multitud de los discípulos, gozándose, comenzaron á alabar á Dios á gran voz por todas las maravillas que habían visto,

38 Diciendo: Bendito el rey que viene en el nombre del Señor: paz en el cielo, y gloria en lo altísimo!

39 Entonces algunos de los Fariseos de la compañía, le dijeron: Maestro, reprende á tus discípulos.

40 Y él respondiendo, les dijo: Os digo que si éstos callaren, las piedras clamarán.
