1. WHEN THEY were getting near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent ahead two of His disciples
2. And instructed them, Go into the village in front of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied, which has never been ridden by anyone; unfasten it and bring it [here].
3. If anyone asks you, Why are you doing this? answer, The Lord needs it, and He will send it back here presently.
4. So they went away and found a colt tied at the door out in the [winding] open street, and they loosed it.
5. And some who were standing there said to them, What are you doing, untying the colt?
