Mark

1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Beth­phage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his dis­ci­ples, 2 And saith unto them, Go your way into the vil­lage over against you: and as soon as ye be en­tered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, where­on nev­er man sat; loose him, and bring him. 3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straight­way he will send him hith­er. 4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door with­out in a place where two ways met; and they loose him. 5 And cer­tain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loos­ing the colt? 6 And they said unto them even as Je­sus had com­mand­ed: and they let them go. 7 And they brought the colt to Je­sus, and cast their gar­ments on him; and he sat upon him. 8 And many spread their gar­ments in the way: and oth­ers cut down branch­es off the trees, and strawed them in the way. 9 And they that went be­fore, and they that fol­lowed, cried, say­ing, Hosan­na; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: 10 Blessed be the king­dom of our fa­ther David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosan­na in the high­est. 11 And Je­sus en­tered into Jerusalem, and into the tem­ple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the even­tide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the mor­row, when they were come from Bethany, he was hun­gry: 13 And see­ing a fig tree afar off hav­ing leaves, he came, if hap­ly he might find any thing there­on: and when he came to it, he found noth­ing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Je­sus an­swered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee here­after for ev­er. And his dis­ci­ples heard it. 15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Je­sus went into the tem­ple, and be­gan to cast out them that sold and bought in the tem­ple, and over­threw the ta­bles of the mon­ey­chang­ers, and the seats of them that sold doves; 16 And would not suf­fer that any man should car­ry any ves­sel through the tem­ple. 17 And he taught, say­ing unto them, Is it not writ­ten, My house shall be called of all na­tions the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves. 18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might de­stroy him: for they feared him, be­cause all the peo­ple was as­ton­ished at his doc­trine. 19 And when even was come, he went out of the city. 20 And in the morn­ing, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Pe­ter call­ing to re­mem­brance saith unto him, Mas­ter, be­hold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is with­ered away. 22 And Je­sus an­swer­ing saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For ver­i­ly I say unto you, That whoso­ev­er shall say unto this moun­tain, Be thou re­moved, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall be­lieve that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have what­so­ev­er he saith. 24 There­fore I say unto you, What things so­ev­er ye de­sire, when ye pray, be­lieve that ye re­ceive them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye stand pray­ing, for­give, if ye have ought against any: that your Fa­ther also which is in heav­en may for­give you your tres­pass­es. 26 But if ye do not for­give, nei­ther will your Fa­ther which is in heav­en for­give your tres­pass­es. 27 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walk­ing in the tem­ple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the el­ders, 28 And say unto him, By what au­thor­i­ty doest thou these things? and who gave thee this au­thor­i­ty to do these things? 29 And Je­sus an­swered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one ques­tion, and an­swer me, and I will tell you by what au­thor­i­ty I do these things. 30 The bap­tism of John, was it from heav­en, or of men? an­swer me. 31 And they rea­soned with them­selves, say­ing, If we shall say, From heav­en; he will say, Why then did ye not be­lieve him? 32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the peo­ple: for all men count­ed John, that he was a prophet in­deed. 33 And they an­swered and said unto Je­sus, We can­not tell. And Je­sus an­swer­ing saith unto them, Nei­ther do I tell you by what au­thor­i­ty I do these things.
