Luke 19:22-37

²²'And he saith to him, Out of thy mouth I will judge thee, evil servant: thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow!

²³and wherefore didst thou not give my money to the bank, and I, having come, with interest might have received it?

²⁵(and they said to him, Sir, he hath ten pounds) —

²⁶for I say to you, that to every one having shall be given, and from him not having, also what he hath shall be taken from him,

³¹and if any one doth question you, Wherefore do ye loose it? thus ye shall say to him — The Lord hath need of it.'

³²And those sent, having gone away, found according as he said to them,

³³and while they are loosing the colt, its owners said unto them, 'Why loose ye the colt?'

³⁴and they said, 'The Lord hath need of it;'

³⁵and they brought it unto Jesus, and having cast their garments upon the colt, they did set Jesus upon it.

³⁶And as he is going, they were spreading their garments in the way,

³⁷and as he is coming nigh now, at the descent of the mount of the Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began rejoicing to praise God with a great voice for all the mighty works they had seen,
