1 When they came near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go|strong="G4198" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" village|strong="G2968" that|strong="G3588" is|strong="G3588" opposite|strong="G2713" you|strong="G5210", and|strong="G2532" immediately|strong="G2112" you|strong="G5210" will|strong="G2532" find|strong="G2147" a|strong="G2532" donkey|strong="G3688" tied|strong="G1210", and|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" colt|strong="G4454" with|strong="G3326" her|strong="G1519". Untie|strong="G3089" them|strong="G3588" and|strong="G2532" bring|strong="G2532" them|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" me|strong="G1473". 3 If|strong="G1437" anyone|strong="G5100" says|strong="G3004" anything|strong="G5100" to|strong="G2532" you|strong="G5210", you|strong="G5210" shall|strong="G2532" say|strong="G3004", ‘The|strong="G2532" Lord|strong="G2962" needs|strong="G5532" them|strong="G3588",’ and|strong="G2532" immediately|strong="G2112" he|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2532" send them|strong="G3588".” 4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, 5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you,
humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”
6 The disciples went and did just as Jesus commanded them, 7 and brought the donkey and the colt and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them. 8 A very great multitude spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 The multitudes who went in front of him, and those who followed, kept shouting, “Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” 10 When he had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?” 11 The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.” 12 Jesus entered into the temple of God and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves. 13 He said to them, “It|strong="G2532" is|strong="G3588" written|strong="G1125", ‘My|strong="G1473" house|strong="G3624" shall|strong="G2532" be|strong="G2532" called|strong="G2564" a|strong="G2532" house|strong="G3624" of|strong="G2532" prayer|strong="G4335",’ but|strong="G1161" you|strong="G5210" have|strong="G2532" made|strong="G4160" it|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" den|strong="G4693" of|strong="G2532" robbers|strong="G3027"!” 14 The lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them. 15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant, 16 and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes|strong="G3483". Did|strong="G2532" you|strong="G3754" never|strong="G3763" read, ‘Out|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" mouth|strong="G4750" of|strong="G1537" children|strong="G3516" and|strong="G2532" nursing|strong="G2337" babies|strong="G2337", you|strong="G3754" have|strong="G2532" perfected praise’?” 17 He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and camped there. 18 Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry. 19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let|strong="G1096" there|strong="G2532" be|strong="G1096" no|strong="G3756" fruit|strong="G2590" from|strong="G1537" you|strong="G4771" forever|strong="G1519"!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. 20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?” 21 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly|strong="G2192" I|strong="G2532" tell|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210", if|strong="G1437" you|strong="G5210" have|strong="G2192" faith|strong="G4102" and|strong="G2532" don’t|strong="G3588" doubt|strong="G1252", you|strong="G5210" will|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3756" only|strong="G3440" do|strong="G4160" what|strong="G3588" was|strong="G1096" done|strong="G4160" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" fig|strong="G4808" tree|strong="G4808", but|strong="G1161" even|strong="G2532" if|strong="G1437" you|strong="G5210" told|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3778" mountain|strong="G3735", ‘Be|strong="G1096" taken|strong="G1096" up|strong="G1519" and|strong="G2532" cast|strong="G2532" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" sea|strong="G2281",’ it|strong="G2532" would|strong="G1096" be|strong="G1096" done|strong="G4160". 22 All|strong="G3956" things|strong="G3956", whatever|strong="G3745" you|strong="G1722" ask in|strong="G1722" prayer|strong="G4335", believing|strong="G4100", you|strong="G1722" will|strong="G2532" receive|strong="G2983".” 23 When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?” 24 Jesus answered them, “I|strong="G1473" also|strong="G2504" will|strong="G3739" ask|strong="G2065" you|strong="G5210" one|strong="G1520" question|strong="G2065", which|strong="G3739" if|strong="G1437" you|strong="G5210" tell|strong="G3004" me|strong="G1473", I|strong="G1473" likewise|strong="G1161" will|strong="G3739" tell|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210" by|strong="G1722" what|strong="G3739" authority|strong="G1849" I|strong="G1473" do|strong="G4160" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778". 25 The|strong="G1722" baptism of|strong="G1537" John|strong="G2491", where|strong="G4159" was|strong="G1510" it|strong="G1161" from|strong="G1537"? From|strong="G1537" heaven|strong="G3772" or|strong="G2228" from|strong="G1537" men|strong="G3588"?” They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’ 26 But if we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.” 27 They answered Jesus, and said, “We don’t know.” He also said to them, “Neither|strong="G3761" will|strong="G2532" I|strong="G1473" tell|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210" by|strong="G1722" what|strong="G4169" authority|strong="G1849" I|strong="G1473" do|strong="G4160" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778". 28 But|strong="G1161" what|strong="G5101" do|strong="G5101" you|strong="G5210" think|strong="G1380"? A|strong="G2192" man|strong="G4413" had|strong="G2192" two|strong="G1417" sons|strong="G5043", and|strong="G1161" he|strong="G1161" came|strong="G4334" to|strong="G3004" the|strong="G1722" first|strong="G4413", and|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004", ‘Son|strong="G5043", go|strong="G5217" work|strong="G2038" today|strong="G4594" in|strong="G1722" my|strong="G1722" vineyard.’ 29 He|strong="G1161" answered|strong="G3004", ‘I|strong="G1161" will|strong="G2309" not|strong="G3756",’ but|strong="G1161" afterward|strong="G5305" he|strong="G1161" changed his|strong="G3588" mind|strong="G3338", and|strong="G1161" went|strong="G3588". 30 He|strong="G2532" came|strong="G4334" to|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" second|strong="G1208", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G5615" thing|strong="G5615".

There|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1510" a|strong="G2532" man who|strong="G3748" was|strong="G1510" a|strong="G2532" master of|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" household|strong="G3617" who|strong="G3748" planted|strong="G5452" a|strong="G2532" vineyard, set|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" hedge about|strong="G1722" it|strong="G2532", dug|strong="G3736" a|strong="G2532" wine|strong="G3025" press|strong="G3025" in|strong="G1722" it|strong="G2532", built|strong="G3618" a|strong="G2532" tower|strong="G4444", leased|strong="G1554" it|strong="G2532" out|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2532" farmers, and|strong="G2532" went|strong="G2532" into|strong="G1722" another|strong="G1722" country. 34 When|strong="G3753" the|strong="G1161" season|strong="G2540" for|strong="G4314" the|strong="G1161" fruit|strong="G2590" came|strong="G3588" near|strong="G1448", he|strong="G1161" sent his|strong="G2983" servants|strong="G1401" to|strong="G4314" the|strong="G1161" farmers to|strong="G4314" receive|strong="G2983" his|strong="G2983" fruit|strong="G2590". 35 The|strong="G2532" farmers took|strong="G2983" his|strong="G2983" servants|strong="G1401", beat|strong="G1194" one|strong="G3739", killed another|strong="G3739", and|strong="G2532" stoned|strong="G3036" another|strong="G3739". 36 Again|strong="G3825", he|strong="G2532" sent|strong="G2532" other|strong="G4183" servants|strong="G1401" more|strong="G4119" than|strong="G4183" the|strong="G2532" first|strong="G4413"; and|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" treated|strong="G4160" them|strong="G3588" the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G5615" way|strong="G5615". 37 But|strong="G1161" afterward|strong="G5305" he|strong="G1161" sent to|strong="G4314" them|strong="G3588" his|strong="G1438" son|strong="G5207", saying|strong="G3004", ‘They|strong="G1161" will|strong="G1473" respect|strong="G1788" my|strong="G1473" son|strong="G5207".’ 38 But|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1722" farmers, when|strong="G1161" they|strong="G2532" saw|strong="G3708" the|strong="G1722" son|strong="G5207", said|strong="G3004" among|strong="G1722" themselves|strong="G1438", ‘This|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G1722" heir|strong="G2818".

This|strong="G3778" was|strong="G1510" from|strong="G3844" the|strong="G1722" Lord|strong="G2962". It|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" marvelous|strong="G2298" in|strong="G1722" our|strong="G2424" eyes|strong="G3788"’? 43 “Therefore|strong="G1223" I|strong="G2532" tell|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210", God|strong="G2316"’s Kingdom will|strong="G2316" be|strong="G2532" taken away from|strong="G2532" you|strong="G5210" and|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2316" be|strong="G2532" given|strong="G1325" to|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" nation|strong="G1484" producing|strong="G4160" its|strong="G1325" fruit|strong="G2590". 44 He|strong="G2532" who|strong="G2532" falls on|strong="G1909" this|strong="G2532" stone|strong="G3037" will|strong="G2532" be|strong="G2532" broken to|strong="G2532" pieces, but|strong="G1161" on|strong="G1909" whomever it|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2532" fall, it|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2532" scatter|strong="G3039" him|strong="G2532" as|strong="G1161" dust|strong="G3039".” 45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them. 46 When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.
