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.
“Go into that village over there,” he told them. “As soon as you enter it, you will see a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here.
And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
If anyone asks, ‘What are you doing?’ just say, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it soon.’”
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.
The two disciples left and found the colt standing in the street, tied outside the front door.
And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
As they were untying it, some bystanders demanded, “What are you doing, untying that colt?”
And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
They said what Jesus had told them to say, and they were permitted to take it.
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their garments over it, and he sat on it.
And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
Many in the crowd spread their garments on the road ahead of him, and others spread leafy branches they had cut in the fields.

Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.

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.
He noticed a fig tree in full leaf a little way off, so he went over to see if he could find any figs. But there were only leaves because it was too early in the season for fruit.
And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
Then Jesus said to the tree, “May no one ever eat your fruit again!” And the disciples heard him say it.

When the leading priests and teachers of religious law heard what Jesus had done, they began planning how to kill him. But they were afraid of him because the people were so amazed at his teaching.
And when even was come, he went out of the city.
The Withered Fig Tree
And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
The next morning as they passed by the fig tree he had cursed, the disciples noticed it had withered from the roots up.
And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
Peter remembered what Jesus had said to the tree on the previous day and exclaimed, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree you cursed has withered and died!”
And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
Then Jesus said to the disciples, “Have faith in God.
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.
I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart.
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you’ve received it, it will be yours.
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.

They demanded, “By what authority are you doing all these things? Who gave you the right to do them?”
And Jesus 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.
“I’ll tell you by what authority I do these things if you answer one question,” Jesus replied.
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.
“Did John’s authority to baptize come from heaven, or was it merely human? Answer me!”
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
They talked it over among themselves. “If we say it was from heaven, he will ask why we didn’t believe John.
But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
But do we dare say it was merely human?” For they were afraid of what the people would do, because everyone believed that John was a prophet.
