< Mark 11 >
1 AND when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
When they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his talmidim,
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.
and said to them, "Go your way into the village that is opposite you. Immediately as you enter into it, you will find a young donkey tied, on which no one has yet sat. Untie 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.
If anyone asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'Because the Lord needs it,' and he will send it back here at once."
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.
They went away, and found a colt tied at the door outside in the open street, and they untied him.
5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
Some of those who stood there asked them, "What are you doing, untying the young donkey?"
6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
They said to them just as Yeshua had said, and they let them go.
7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
They brought the young donkey to Yeshua, and threw their garments on it, and Yeshua sat on it.
8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
Many spread their garments on the way, and others spread branches which they had cut from the fields.
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
Those who went in front, and those who followed, shouted, "Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes 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.
Blessed is the kingdom of our father David. 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.
And he entered into the temple in Jerusalem. When he had looked around at everything, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
The next day, when they had come out 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.
Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it. (aiōn )
Yeshua told it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." and his talmidim heard it. (aiōn )
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.
He would not allow anyone to carry a container 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.
He taught, saying to them, "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."
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.
The chief cohanim and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the crowd was astonished at his teaching.
19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
When evening came, they went out of the city.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
Peter, remembering, said to him, "Teacher, look. The fig tree which you cursed has withered away."
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
Yeshua answered 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.
Truly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
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.
Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your wrongdoing.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your wrongdoing."
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,
They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking in the temple, the chief cohanim, and the scribes, and the elders came to him,
28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
and they began saying to him, "By what authority do you do these things? And who gave you 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.
Yeshua said to them, "I will also ask you one question. 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.
The immersion of John—was it from heaven, or from people? 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?
They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we should say, 'From heaven;' he will say, 'Why then did you 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.
If we should say, 'From people'"—they feared the crowd, for all held John to really be a prophet.
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.
They answered and said to Yeshua, "We do not know." Yeshua said to them, "Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things."
