Mark 11:1-7

1Now when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples

2and said to them, "Go into the village in front of you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, 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 has need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"

4And they went away and found a colt tied at a door outside in the street, and they untied it.

5And some of those standing there said to them, "What are you doing, untying the colt?"

6And they told them what Jesus had said, and they let them go.

7And they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it.
