Mark 11:1-7

1When they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany near the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples

2and told them, “Go into the village ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it.

3If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this? ’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here right away.’”

4So they went and found a colt outside in the street, tied by a door. They untied it,

5and some of those standing there said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?”

6They answered them just as Jesus had said; so they let them go.

7They brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and he sat on it.
