< Mark 11 >
1 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two of His disciples
AND when they drew nigh to Urishlem, against Bethphage and Beth-ania, at the mount of Olives, he sent two from his disciples,
2 and said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.
and said to them, Go to that village which is over against you; and forthwith as you enter it, you will find a colt tied, which no man hath ridden; loose, bring him.
3 If anyone asks, ‘Why are you doing this?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it shortly.’”
And if any man shall say to you, Why do you this? say to him, Because for our Lord it is requested, and at once he will send him hither.
4 So they went and found the colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. They untied it,
And they went, and found the colt tied at the gate without in the street. And as they were loosing,
5 and some who were standing there asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”
some of those who were standing said to them, What are you doing that you loosen the colt?
6 The disciples answered as Jesus had instructed them, and the people gave them permission.
But they said to them as Jeshu had instructed them; and they permitted them.
7 Then they led the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, and He sat on it.
And they brought the colt to Jeshu, and threw upon him their garments; and Jeshu rode upon him.
8 Many in the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut from the fields.
But many spread their vestments in the way, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them in the way;
9 The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”
and these who went before him, and these who came after him, cried, saying, Save now!
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest!”
and blessed be the coming kingdom of our father David: Save now, in the heights!
11 Then Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
And Jeshu entered Urishlem, into the temple, and surveyed every thing. And when it was the time of the evening, he went forth to Beth-ania with the twelve.
12 The next day, when they had left Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
And the day after, when he went from Beth-ania, he hungered.
13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if there was any fruit on it. But when He reached it, He found nothing on it except leaves, since it was not the season for figs.
And he saw a certain fig-tree from afar which had leaves on it, and he came to it, if he might find upon it somewhat; but when he came, he found on it only the leaves, for the time was not for figs (to have been ingathered).
14 Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement. (aiōn )
And he said to it, Henceforth and for ever man from thee fruit shall not eat. And his disciples heard. (aiōn )
15 When they arrived in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.
And they came to Urishlem. And Jeshu went into the temple of Aloha, and began to cast forth those who sold and bought in the temple, and he overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them who sold doves:
16 And He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.
and he would not suffer any man to carry goods through the temple.
17 Then Jesus began to teach them, and He declared, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
And he taught, and said to them, Is it not written, That my house the house of prayer shall be called of all nations? but you have made it a den of thieves.
18 When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.
And the chief priests and Sophree heard it, and inquired how they might destroy him; for they feared from him, because all the people admired his doctrine.
19 And when evening came, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.
AND when it was evening, they went without from the city.
20 As they were walking back in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from its roots.
And in the morning, while they passed by, they saw that fig-tree that it was dry from its root.
21 Peter remembered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.”
And Shemun remembered and said to him, Rabi, behold, that fig-tree which thou didst curse hath dried.
22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus said to them.
And Jeshu answered and said to them, Let there be in you the faith of Aloha.
23 “Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.
Amen I say to you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be lifted up, and fall into the sea, and shall not be divided in his heart, but shall believe that that thing which he speaketh is, he shall have the thing that he saith.
24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
On this account I tell you, that every thing whatever you supplicate and ask, believe that you receive, and it shall be unto you.
25 And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”
And when you stand to pray, forgive whatever you have against any man; and your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you your transgressions.
But if you do not forgive, your Father who is in heaven will also not forgive you your transgressions.
27 After their return to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking in the temple courts, and the chief priests, scribes, and elders came up to Him.
And they came again to Urishlem: and as he walked in the temple, the chief priests and the Sophree and the elders came to him,
28 “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You the authority to do them?”
and said to him, By what authority these things doest thou? and who gave thee the authority to do them?
29 “I will ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
But Jeshu said to them, I also will ask you one word, that you may tell me, and I tell you by what authority I these things do.
30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me!”
The baptism of Juchanon, from whence was it? from heaven, or from the sons of man? Tell me.
31 They deliberated among themselves what they should answer: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
And they reasoned among themselves, and said, If we say to him, that (it was) from heaven, he saith to us, And why did you not believe him?
32 But if we say, ‘From men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet.
And if we should say, From the sons of man, there is fear from the people; for all have held Juchanon that he was truly a prophet.
33 So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
And they answered, saying to Jeshu, We know not. He saith to them, I also do not tell you by what authority I these things do.
