1 And  when  they came near  to  Jerusalem  , to  Bethphage  and  Bethany  , at  the mount  of Olives  , he sends forward  two  of his  disciples  2 And  said  to them  , Go your way  into  the village  over against  you  : and  as soon as  you be entered  into  it  , you will find  a colt  tied  , on which  +  never  man  sat  ; loose  him  , and bring  3 And  if  any man  say  to you  , Why  do you  this  ? say you  that  the Lord  has  need  of him  ; and  immediately  he will send  him  here  4 And  they went their way  , and  found  the colt  tied  by  the door  without  in  a place where two ways met  ; and  they loose  him  5 And  certain of them  that stood  there  said  to them  , What  do you  , loosing  the colt  6 And  they said  to them  even as  Jesus  had commanded  : and  they let  them  go  7 And  they brought  the colt  to  Jesus  , and  cast  their  garments  on  him  ; and  he sat  on  him  8 And  many  spread  their  garments  in  the way  : and  others  cut down  branches  off  the trees  , and  strawed  [them] in  the way  9 And  those went before  , and  those followed  , cried  , saying  , Hosanna  ; Blessed  [is] he that comes  in  the name  of the Lord  10 Blessed  [be] the kingdom  of our  father  David  , that comes  in  the name  of the Lord  : Hosanna  in  the highest  11 And  Jesus  entered  into  Jerusalem  , and  into  the temple  : and  when he had looked round about on  all things  , and now  the eventide  +  was come  , he went out  to  Bethany  with  the twelve  12 And  on the tomorrow  , when they  were come  from  Bethany  , he was hungry  13 And  seeing  a fig tree  afar off  having  leaves  , he came  , if  haply  he might find  any thing  thereon  +  : and  when he came  to  it  , he found  nothing  but  leaves  ; for  the time  of figs  was  not  14 And  Jesus  answered  and said  to it  , No man  eat  fruit  of  you  hereafter  for  ever  . And  his  disciples  heard  15 And  they come  to  Jerusalem  : and  Jesus  went  into  the temple  , and began  to cast out  them that sold  and  bought  in  the temple  , and  overthrew  the tables  of the moneychangers  , and  the seats  of them  that sold  doves  16 And  would  not  suffer  that  any man  should carry  [any] vessel  through  the temple  17 And  he taught  , saying  to them  , Is it  not  written  ,  My  house  will be called  of all  nations  the house  of prayer  ? but  you  have made  it  a den  of thieves  18 And  the scribes  and  chief priests  heard  [it], and  sought  how  they might destroy  him  : for  they feared  him  , because  all  the people  was astonished  at  his  doctrine  19 And  when  even  was come  , he went  out of  the city  20 And  in the morning  , as they passed by  , they saw  the fig tree  dried up  from  the roots  21 And  Peter  calling to remembrance  said  to him  , Master  , see  , the fig tree  which  you cursed  is withered away  22 And  Jesus  answering  said  to them  , Have  faith  in God  23 For  truly  I say  to you  , That  whoever  +  will say  to this  mountain  , Be you removed  , and  be cast  into  the sea  ; and  will  not  doubt  in  his  heart  , but  will believe  that  those things which  he says  will come to pass  ; he  will have  anything  +  he says  24 Therefore  +  I say  to you  , What  things  soever  you desire  , when you pray  , believe  that  you receive  [them], and  you  will have  25 And  when  you stand  praying  , forgive  , if  you have  should  against  any  : that  your  Father  also  which  is in  heaven  may forgive  you  your  trespasses  26 But  if  you  do  not  forgive  , neither  will  your  Father  which  is in  heaven  forgive  your  trespasses  27 And  they come  again  to  Jerusalem  : and  as he  was walking  in  the temple  , there come  to  him  the chief priests  , and  the scribes  , and  the elders  28 And  say  to him  , By  what  authority  do you  these things  ? and  who  gave  you  this  authority  to  do  these things  29 And  Jesus  answered  and said  to them  , I will  also  ask  of you  one  question  , and  answer  me  , and  I will tell  you  by  what  authority  I do  these things  30 The baptism  of John  , was  [it] from  heaven  , or  of  men  ? answer  me  31 And  they reasoned  with  themselves  , saying  , If  we will say  , From  heaven  ; he will say  , Why  then  did you  not  believe  him  32 But  if  we will say  , Of  men  ; they feared  the people  : for  all  [men] counted  John  , that  he was  a prophet  indeed  33 And  they answered  and said  to Jesus  , We  cannot  tell  . And  Jesus  answering  said  to them  , Neither  do I  tell  you  by  what  authority  I do  these things
