Matthew 21:1-7

1Now when they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,

2telling them, “Go to the village ahead of you. Right away you will find a donkey tied there, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.

3If anyone says anything to you, you are to say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them at once.”

4This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet:

5“Tell the people of Zion, ‘Look, your king is coming to you, unassuming and seated on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

6So the disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.

7They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them, and he sat on them.
