< Mark 11 >

1 When they came near to Jerusalem, to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples
And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth 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 your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
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 unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Rabbi hath need of him; and straightway he will send him 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 their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
5 Some of those who stood there asked them, “What are you doing, untying the young donkey?”
And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
6 They said to them just as Yeshua had said, and they let them go.
And they said unto them even as Yahushua had commanded: and they let them go.
7 They brought the young donkey to Yeshua and threw their garments on it, and Yeshua sat on it.
And they brought the colt to Yahushua, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
8 Many spread their garments on the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.
And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 Those who went in front and those who followed cried out, “Hoshia'na! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of YHWH:
10 Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hoshia'na in the highest!”
Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of YHWH: Hosanna in the highest.
11 Yeshua entered into the temple in Jerusalem. When he had looked around at everything, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
And Yahushua entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
12 The next day, when they had come out from Bethany, he was hungry.
And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
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 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 yet.
14 Yeshua told it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” and his disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
And Yahushua answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
15 They came to Jerusalem, and Yeshua entered into the temple and began to throw out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
And they come to Jerusalem: and Yahushua 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 He would not allow anyone to carry a container through the temple.
And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 He taught, saying to them, “Isn’t it written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers!”
And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? 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.
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 When evening came, he went out of the city.
And when even was come, he went out of the city.
20 As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.
And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 Peter, remembering, said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which you cursed has withered away.”
And Kepha calling to remembrance saith unto him, Rabbi, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 Yeshua answered them, “Have faith in God.
And Yahushua answering saith unto them, Have faith in YHWH.
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 unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
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, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
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 ought 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 in heaven forgive your transgressions.”
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
27 They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to him,
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 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 unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
29 Yeshua said to them, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
And Yahushua answered and said unto 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 immersion of Yochanan—was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.”
The baptism of John, was it from 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 with themselves, saying, If we shall say, 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 Yochanan to really be a prophet.
But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
33 They answered Yeshua, “We don’t know.” Yeshua said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
And they answered and said unto Yahushua, We cannot tell. And Yahushua answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
