Luke 19:28-40
After
he had said this, he went on ahead, going up to
When
he had come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the place
called the
“Go
into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it you will find
tied there a colt that has never been
ridden. Untie it and bring it
here. If
anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ just say this,
‘The
Lord needs it.’ So those who were sent
departed and found
It
as he had told them. As they were
untying the colt, its owners
asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?” They said, “The Lord needs it.” Then they brought it to Jesus; and after
throwing their
cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it. As he rode along people
kept spreading their cloaks on the road. As he was now
approaching the path down from the
multitude of the disciples began to praise God
joyfully with a loud
voice for all the deeds of power that they had
seen, saying,
“Blessed is the king who comes in the
name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven, and glory in the
highest heaven!”
Some
of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, order
your disciples to stop. He answered, “I tell you, if these were
silent, the stones would shout out.”
Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29
O
give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his steadfast
love
endures forever!
Let
Open
to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter
through
them and give thanks to the Lord. This is the gate of the Lord;
the righteous shall enter through it I thank you
that you have
answered me and have become my salvation. The stone that
the builders rejected has become the chief
cornerstone. This is
the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. This
is the day that
the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in
it.
Save
us O Lord, we beseech you, give us success!
Blessed
is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.
We
bless you from the house of the Lord. The Lord is God, and he
has given us light. Bind the festal procession with branches, up
to the horns of the altar.
You are my God, and I will give thanks
to you; you are my God, I will extol you. O give thanks to the
Lord,
for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.
