1 And when they were near Jerusalem, and had come to Beth-phage, to the Mountain of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,
2 Saying to them, Go into the little town in front of you, and straight away you will see an ass with a cord round her neck, and a young one with her; let them loose and come with them to me.
3 And if anyone says anything to you, you will say, The Lord has need of them; and straight away he will send them.
4 Now this took place so that these words of the prophet might come true,
5 Say to the daughter of Zion, See, your King comes to you, gentle and seated on an ass, and on a young ass.
6 And the disciples went and did as Jesus had given them orders,
7 And got the ass and the young one, and put their clothing on them, and he took his seat on it.
8 And all the people put their clothing down in the way; and others got branches from the trees, and put them down in the way.
9 And those who went before him, and those who came after, gave loud cries, saying, Glory to the Son of David: A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord: Glory in the highest.
10 And when he came into Jerusalem, all the town was moved, saying, Who is this?
11 And the people said, This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
1 Y COMO se acercaron á Jerusalem, y vinieron á Bethfagé, al monte de las Olivas, entonces Jesús envió dos discípulos,
2 Diciéndoles: Id á la aldea que está delante de vosotros, y luego hallaréis una asna atada, y un pollino con ella: desatad la, y traédme los.
3 Y si alguno os dijere algo, decid: El Señor los ha menester. Y luego los dejará.
4 Y todo esto fué hecho, para que se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta, que dijo:
5 Decid á la hija de Sión: He aquí, tu Rey viene á ti, Manso, y sentado sobre una asna, Y sobre un pollino, hijo de animal de yugo.
6 Y los discípulos fueron, é hicieron como Jesús les mandó;
7 Y trajeron el asna y el pollino, y pusieron sobre ellos sus mantos; y se sentó sobre ellos.
8 Y la compañía, que era muy numerosa, tendía sus mantos en el camino: y otros cortaban ramos de los árboles, y los tendían por el camino.
9 Y las gentes que iban delante, y las que iban detrás, aclamaban diciendo: Hosanna al Hijo de David! Bendito el que viene en el nombre del Señor! Hosanna en las alturas!
10 Y entrando él en Jerusalem, toda la ciudad se alborotó, diciendo. ¿Quién es éste?
11 Y las gentes decían: Este es Jesús, el profeta, de Nazaret de Galilea.
