AND when he drew nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, to the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
2 and said to them, “Go your way into the village that is opposite you. Immediately as you enter into it, you will find a young donkey tied, on which no one has sat. Untie him and bring him.
and saith unto them, Go into the village opposite to you: and immediately as you enter it, you will find a foal tied, on which no man yet hath rode; loose him, and bring him hither.
3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs him;’ and immediately he will send him back here.”
And if any man say to you, Why do ye this? say, That the Lord hath need of it; and immediately he will send it hither.
4 They went away, and found a young donkey tied at the door outside in the open street, and they untied him.
And they went, and found the foal tied to a gate without, where two ways met; and they untie him.
5 Some of those who stood there asked them, “What are you doing, untying the young donkey?”
Then some of those who stood by, said unto them, What are ye about, untying the colt?
6 They said to them just as Jesus had said, and they let them go.
Then they said unto them, as Jesus commanded them: and they permitted them to do it.
7 They brought the young donkey to Jesus and threw their garments on it, and Jesus sat on it.
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and put on him their garments; and he rode upon it.
8 Many spread their garments on the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.
And multitudes spread their garments on the road: and others cut off boughs from the trees, and strewed them on the road.
9 Those who went in front and those who followed cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
And they who went before, and who followed after, cried, saying, Hosanna: blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
10 Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that is coming in the name of the Lord: hosanna in the highest.

13 Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
and seeing a fig-tree at a distance, full of leaves, he went to it, expecting probably that he might find some fruit upon it: and when he came to it, he found none, only leaves: for it was not a good season for figs.

And he taught them, saying, Is it not written, that “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations?” but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18 The chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

21 Peter, remembering, said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which you cursed has withered away.”

23 For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening, he shall have whatever he says.
For verily I say to you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou lifted up, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall harbour no doubt in his heart, but believe that what he saith shall come to pass; whatsoever he may speak shall be done for him.
24 Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.
Therefore I say unto you, That all things whatever ye ask in prayer, believe that ye shall receive them, and they shall be given you.
25 Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions.
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have a matter against any man: that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions.”
But if ye forgive not, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

28 and they began saying to him, “By what authority do you do these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?”
and say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things?
29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Then Jesus answering said unto them, I also will ask 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 from men? Answer me.”
The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.
31 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we should say, ‘From heaven;’ he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
32 If we should say, ‘From men’”—they feared the people, for all held John to really be a prophet.
but if we say of men―they feared the people: for all men held John to be in truth a prophet.
33 They answered Jesus, “We don’t know.” Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
And they answering said to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus in reply said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
