2 Tubah 1741
Luke 19 : 29 - 48
| 29 | And it came to pass, when He drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain called Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples, |
| 30 | saying, "Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. |
| 31 | And if anyone asks you, "Why are you loosing it?' thus you shall say to him, "Because the Lord has need of it."' |
| 32 | So those who were sent went their way and found it just as He had said to them. |
| 33 | But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, "Why are you loosing the colt?" |
| 34 | And they said, "The Lord has need of him." |
| 35 | Then they brought him to Jesus. And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him. |
| 36 | And as He went, many spread their clothes on the road. |
| 37 | Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, |
| 38 | saying: Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the LORD!' Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!" |
| 39 | And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples." |
| 40 | But He answered and said to them, "I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out." |
| 41 | Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, |
| 42 | saying, "If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. |
| 43 | For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, |
| 44 | and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation." |
| 45 | Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, |
| 46 | saying to them, "It is written, "My house is a house of prayer,' but you have made it a "den of thieves."' |
| 47 | And He was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people sought to destroy Him, |
| 48 | and were unable to do anything; for all the people were very attentive to hear Him. |
