Mace(i)
1 When they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bepthphage, to the mount of Olives, Jesus dispatched two disciples,
2 saying, go to yonder village, and you will immediately find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them to me.
3 if any man oppose you, say, the Lord wants them; and then he will send them.
4 all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
5 saying, " tell ye the daughter of Sion, behold, thy king cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting on an ass, even a colt, the fole of an ass."
6 and the disciples went, and having done as Jesus commanded them,
7 they brought the ass with the colt, threw their clothes on them, and mounted him thereon:
8 abundance of people spread their garments upon the ground; others lop'd down branches from the trees, and strewed them in the way:
9 while the crowd that were marching before, and behind, cried out, "Hosanna to the son of David: blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord, Hosanna, Hosanna."
10 and when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was in an uproar, saying, who is this?
11 and the crowd said, 'tis Jesus the prophet of Nazareth in Galilee.
12 Then Jesus entered into the temple of God, drove out all those that sold and bought in the temple, overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the stalls of those that sold doves,
13 and said to them, it is written, " my house shall be the house of prayer, but ye have made it a den of thieves."
14 Then the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them:
15 but when the chief priests and Scribes saw the wonders that he did, and the young people crying in the temple, "Hosanna to the son of David;" they were full of indignation.
16 and said to him, do you hear what they say? yes, said Jesus; have ye never read, "out of the mouth of babes and sucklings I will make a consort of praise?"
17 then leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany, where he stay'd that night.
