11WHEN THEY were getting near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent ahead two of His disciplesG2532G3753G1448G1519G2419G1519G967G2532G963G4314G3735G1636G649G1417G846G31012And instructed them, Go into the village in front of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied, which has never been ridden by anyone; unfasten it and bring it [here].G2532G3004G846G5217G1519G2968G2713G5216G2532G2112G1531G1519G846G2147G4454G1210G1909G3739G3762G444G2523G3089G846G713If anyone asks you, Why are you doing this? answer, The Lord needs it, and He will send it back here presently.G2532G1437G5100G2036G5213G5101G4160G5124G2036G3754G2962G2192G5532G846G2532G2112G649G846G56024So they went away and found a colt tied at the door out in the [winding] open street, and they loosed it.G1161G565G2532G2147G4454G1210G4314G2374G1854G1909G296G2532G3089G8465And some who were standing there said to them, What are you doing, untying the colt?G2532G5100G2476G1563G3004G846G5101G4160G3089G44546And they replied as Jesus had directed them, and they allowed them to go.G1161G2036G846G2531G2424G1781G2532G863G846G8637And they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their outer garments upon it, and He sat on it.G2532G71G4454G4314G2424G2532G1911G846G2440G1911G846G2532G2523G1909G8468And many [of the people] spread their garments on the road, and others [scattered a layer of] leafy branches which they had cut from the fields.G1161G4183G4766G846G2440G1519G3598G1161G243G2875G4746G1537G1186G2532G4766G1519G35989And those who went before and those who followed cried out [with a cry of happiness], Hosanna! [Be graciously inclined and propitious to Him!] Praised {and} blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord!G2532G4254G2532G190G2896G3004G5614G2127G2064G1722G3686G296210Praised {and} blessed {in the name of the Lord} is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna (O save us) in the highest [heaven]!G2127G932G2257G3962G1138G2064G1722G3686G2962G5614G1722G531011And Jesus went into Jerusalem and entered the temple [enclosure]; and when He had looked around, surveying {and} observing everything, as it was already late, He went out to Bethany together with the Twelve [apostles].G2532G2424G1525G1519G2414G2532G1519G2411G2532G4017G3956G2235G3798G5610G5607G1831G1519G963G3326G142712On the day following, when they had come away from Bethany, He was hungry.G2532G1887G846G1831G575G963G398313And seeing in the distance a fig tree [covered] with leaves, He went to see if He could find any [fruit] on it [for in the fig tree the fruit appears at the same time as the leaves]. But when He came up to it, He found nothing but leaves, for the fig season had not yet come.G2532G1492G4808G3113G2192G5444G2064G1487G686G2147G5100G1722G846G2532G2064G1909G846G2147G3762G1508G5444G1063G2540G4810G2258G375614And He said to it, No one ever again shall eat fruit from you. And His disciples were listening [to what He said].G2532G2424G611G2036G846G3367G5315G2590G1537G4675G3371G1519G165G2532G846G3101G19115And they came to Jerusalem. And He went into the temple [area, the porches and courts] and began to drive out those who sold and bought in the temple area, and He overturned the [four-footed] tables of the money changers and the seats of those who dealt in doves;G2532G2064G1519G2414G2532G2424G1525G1519G2411G756G1544G4453G2532G59G1722G2411G2532G2690G5132G2855G2532G2515G846G4453G405816And He would not permit anyone to carry any household equipment through the temple enclosure [thus making the temple area a short-cut traffic lane].G2532G863G3756G863G2443G5100G1308G4632G1223G241117And He taught and said to them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? But you have turned it into a den of robbers.G2532G1321G3004G846G1125G3756G1125G3754G3450G3624G2564G3956G1484G3624G4335G1161G5210G4160G846G4693G302718And the chief priests and the scribes heard [of this] and kept seeking some way to destroy Him, for they feared Him, because the entire multitude was struck with astonishment at His teaching.G2532G1122G2532G749G191G2532G2212G4459G622G846G1063G5399G846G3754G3956G3793G1605G1909G846G132219And when evening came on, {He and His disciples}, as accustomed, went out of the city.G2532G3753G3796G1096G1607G1854G417220In the morning, when they were passing along, they noticed that the fig tree was withered [completely] away to its roots.G2532G4404G3899G1492G4808G3583G1537G449121And Peter remembered and said to Him, Master, look! The fig tree which You doomed has withered away!G2532G4074G363G3004G846G4461G2396G4808G3739G2672G358322And Jesus, replying, said to them, Have faith in God [constantly].G2532G2424G611G3004G846G2192G4102G231623Truly I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted up and thrown into the sea! and does not doubt at all in his heart but believes that what he says will take place, it will be done for him.G1063G281G3004G5213G3754G3739G302G2036G5129G3735G142G2532G906G1519G2281G2532G1252G3361G1252G1722G846G2588G235G4100G3754G3739G3004G1096G846G2071G3739G1437G203624For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to you, and you will [get it].G1223G5124G3004G5213G3745G3956G302G154G4336G4100G3754G2983G2532G5213G207125And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him {and} let it drop (leave it, let it go), in order that your Father Who is in heaven may also forgive you your [own] failings {and} shortcomings {and} let them drop.G2532G3752G4739G4336G863G1536G2192G1536G2596G5100G2443G5216G3962G2532G3588G1722G3772G863G5213G5216G390026{But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your failings and shortcomings.}G1161G1487G5210G863G3756G863G3761G863G5216G3962G3588G1722G3772G863G5216G390027And they came again to Jerusalem. And when Jesus was walking about in the [courts and porches of the] temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to Him,G2532G2064G3825G1519G2414G2532G846G4043G1722G2411G2064G4314G846G749G2532G1122G2532G424528And they kept saying to Him, By what [sort of] authority are You doing these things, or who gave You this authority to do them?G2532G3004G846G1722G4169G1849G4160G5023G2532G5101G1325G4671G5026G1849G2443G4160G502329Jesus told them, I will ask you a question. Answer Me, and then I will tell you by what [sort of] authority I do these things.G1161G2424G611G2036G846G1905G2504G1905G5209G1520G3056G2532G611G3427G2532G2046G5213G1722G4169G1849G4160G502330Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men? Answer Me.G908G2491G2258G1537G3772G2228G1537G444G611G342731And they reasoned {and} argued with one another, If we say, From heaven, He will say, Why then did you not believe him?G2532G3049G4314G1438G3004G1437G2036G1537G3772G2046G1302G3767G4100G3756G4100G84632But [on the other hand] can we say, From men? For they were afraid of the people, because everybody considered {and} held John actually to be a prophet.G235G1437G2036G1537G444G5399G2992G1063G537G2192G2491G3754G2258G4396G368933So they replied to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus said to them, Neither am I going to tell you what [sort of] authority I have for doing these things.G2532G611G3004G2424G1492G3756G1492G2532G2424G611G3004G846G3761G1473G3004G5213G1722G4169G1849G4160G5023
