The Gospel According to Mark

And when they draw near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sends two of his disciples,

and says to them, Go into the village which is over against you, and immediately on entering into it ye will find a colt tied, upon which no [child] of man has ever sat: loose it and lead it [here].

And if any one say to you, Why do ye this? say, The Lord has need of it; and straightway he sends it hither.
