The Triumphal Entry

12 jThe next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 So they took branches of kpalm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, l“Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the mKing of Israel!” 14 And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,

15  n“Fear not, daughter of Zion;

behold, your king is coming,

sitting on a donkey’s colt!”


Matthew 21:4–9

4 This took place bto fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying,

5  c“Say to the daughter of Zion,

‘Behold, your king is coming to you,

dhumble, and mounted on a donkey,

on a colt,1 the foal of a beast of burden.’”

6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them. 8 Most of the crowd espread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, f“Hosanna to the gSon of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”


Mark 11:7–10

7 And they brought qthe colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it. 8 And many rspread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields. 9 And those who went before and those who followed were shouting, s“Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! 10 Blessed is the tcoming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!”


Luke 19:35–38

35 And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the pcolt, they set Jesus on it. 36 And as he rode along, they qspread their cloaks on the road. 37 As he was drawing near—already on the way down the Mount of Olives—the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, 38 saying, r“Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the shighest!”
