Mark 11:1-7 ▼

1 When they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany near the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples

2 and told them, “Go into the village ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it.

3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this? ’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here right away.’ ”

4 So they went and found a colt outside in the street, tied by a door. They untied it,

5 and some of those standing there said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt? ”

6 They answered them just as Jesus had said; so they let them go.

7 They brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and he sat on it.
