< Mark 11 >
1 And when they come near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage, and Bethany, to the Mount of Olives, He sends forth two of His disciples,
AND when he drew nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, to the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
2 and says to them, “Go away into the village that is in front of you, and immediately, entering into it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one of men has sat, having loosed it, bring [it]:
and saith unto them, Go into the village opposite to you: and immediately as you enter it, you will find a foal tied, on which no man yet hath rode; loose him, and bring him hither.
3 and if anyone may say to you, Why do you do this? Say that the LORD has need of it, and immediately He will send it here.”
And if any man say to you, Why do ye this? say, That the Lord hath need of it; and immediately he will send it hither.
4 And they went away, and found the colt tied at the door outside, by the two ways, and they loose it,
And they went, and found the foal tied to a gate without, where two ways met; and they untie him.
5 and certain of those standing there said to them, “What do you—loosing the colt?”
Then some of those who stood by, said unto them, What are ye about, untying the colt?
6 And they said to them as Jesus commanded, and they permitted them.
Then they said unto them, as Jesus commanded them: and they permitted them to do it.
7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on it, and He sat on it,
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and put on him their garments; and he rode upon it.
8 and many spread their garments in the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way.
And multitudes spread their garments on the road: and others cut off boughs from the trees, and strewed them on the road.
9 And those going before and those following were crying out, saying, “Hosanna! Blessed [is] He who is coming in the Name of the LORD;
And they who went before, and who followed after, cried, saying, Hosanna: blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
10 blessed is the coming kingdom, in the Name of the LORD, of our father David; Hosanna in the highest!”
Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that is coming in the name of the Lord: hosanna in the highest.
11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple, and having looked around on all things, it being now evening, He went forth to Bethany with the Twelve.
And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and looking round about upon all things, it being now even-tide, he departed to Bethany with the twelve.
12 And on the next day, they having come forth from Bethany, He hungered,
And on the morrow, as they were coming out of Bethany, he was hungry:
13 and having seen a fig tree far off having leaves, He came, if perhaps He will find anything in it, and having come to it, He found nothing except leaves, for it was not a time of figs,
and seeing a fig-tree at a distance, full of leaves, he went to it, expecting probably that he might find some fruit upon it: and when he came to it, he found none, only leaves: for it was not a good season for figs.
14 and Jesus answering said to it, “No longer from you—throughout the age—may any eat fruit”; and His disciples were hearing. (aiōn )
And Jesus spake and said to it, Let no man eat fruit from thee henceforth for ever. And his disciples heard him. (aiōn )
15 And they come to Jerusalem, and Jesus having gone into the temple, began to cast forth those selling and buying in the temple, and He overthrew the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those selling the doves,
And they came to Jerusalem and Jesus entered into the temple, and began to cast out those who sold and bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves;
16 and He did not permit that any might carry a vessel through the temple,
and would not suffer that any person should carry a vessel through the temple.
17 and He was teaching, saying to them, “Has it not been written: My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations? And you made it a den of robbers!”
And he taught them, saying, Is it not written, that “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations?” but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18 And the scribes and the chief priests heard, and they were seeking how they will destroy Him, for they were afraid of Him, because all the multitude was astonished at His teaching;
And the scribes and chief priests heard him, and sought how they might destroy him: for they were afraid of him, because all the people were exceedingly struck with his teaching,
19 and when evening came, He was going forth outside the city.
And when the evening came, he went away out of the city.
20 And in the morning, passing by, they saw the fig tree having been dried up from the roots,
And in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig-tree withered from the roots.
21 and Peter having remembered says to Him, “Rabbi, behold, the fig tree that You cursed is dried up.”
And Peter reminding him said, Rabbi, behold, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering says to them, “Have faith from God;
And Jesus answering said to them, Have faith in God.
23 for truly I say to you that whoever may say to this mountain, Be taken up, and be cast into the sea, and may not doubt in his heart, but may believe that the things that he says come to pass, it will be to him whatever he may say.
For verily I say to you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou lifted up, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall harbour no doubt in his heart, but believe that what he saith shall come to pass; whatsoever he may speak shall be done for him.
24 Because of this I say to you, all whatever—praying—you ask, believe that you receive, and it will be to you.
Therefore I say unto you, That all things whatever ye ask in prayer, believe that ye shall receive them, and they shall be given you.
25 And whenever you may stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, that your Father who is in the heavens may also forgive you your trespasses;
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have a matter against any man: that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 [[and, if you do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in the heavens forgive your trespasses.”]]
But if ye forgive not, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
27 And they come again to Jerusalem, and in the temple, as He is walking, there come to Him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders, come to him,
28 and they say to Him, “By what authority do You do these things? And who gave You this authority that You may do these things?”
and say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things?
29 And Jesus answering said to them, “I will question you—I also—one word; and answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things;
Then Jesus answering said unto them, I also will ask you one question; and answer me; and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 the immersion of John—was it from Heaven or from men? Answer Me.”
The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.
31 And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, “If we may say, From Heaven, He will say, Why then did you not believe him?
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
32 But if we may say, From men…” They were fearing the people, for all were holding that John was indeed a prophet;
but if we say of men―they feared the people: for all men held John to be in truth a prophet.
33 and answering they say to Jesus, “We have not known”; and Jesus answering says to them, “Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
And they answering said to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus in reply said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
