28. And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.
29. And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
30. Saying: Go into the town which is over against you, at your entering into which you shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which no man ever hath sitten: loose him, and bring him hither.
31. And if any man shall ask you: Why do you loose him? you shall say thus unto him: Because the Lord hath need of his service.
32. And they that were sent, went their way, and found the colt standing, as he had said unto them.
33. And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said to them: Why loose you the colt?
34. But they said: Because the Lord hath need of him.
35. And they brought him to Jesus. And casting their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.
36. And as he went, they spread their clothes underneath in the way.
