John 12:12-19

The Triumphal Entry

12 The next day ^athe large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 So they took branches of ^bpalm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, ^c“Hosanna! Blessed is ^dhe who comes in the name of the Lord, even ^ethe King of Israel!” 14 And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,

15 ^f“Fear not, daughter of Zion;
behold, your king is coming,
sitting on a donkey’s colt!”
16 ^gHis disciples did not understand these things at first, but ^hwhen Jesus was glorified, then ⁱthey remembered that these things had been written about him and had been done to him. 17 ^jThe crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to bear witness. 18 The reason why the crowd went to meet him ^kwas that they heard he had done this sign. 19 So the Pharisees said to one another, ^l“You see that you are gaining nothing. Look, ^mthe world has gone after him.”
