Mark 11:7–10

⁷Then they led the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, and He sat on it.

⁸Many in the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut from the fields. ⁹The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting:

“Hosanna!”^a

“Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”^b

¹⁰“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”

“Hosanna in the highest!”^c
