4 This took place for the fulfilment of what had been spoken by the prophet,
5 Tell the daughter of Sion, 'Here is your king coming to you, He is gentle and mounted on an ass, And on a colt the foal of a beast of burden.'
6 So the disciples went and did as Jesus told them;
7 they brought the ass and the colt and put their clothes on them. Jesus seated himself on them,
8 and the greater part of the crowd spread their clothes on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and strewed them on the road.
9 And the crowds who went in front of him and who followed behind shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed be he who comes in the Lord's name! Hosanna in high heaven!"
