Part 25

40:020:023 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

40:020:024 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren.

40:020:025 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

40:020:026 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

40:020:027 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

40:020:028 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

40:020:029 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

40:020:030 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

40:020:031 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

40:020:032 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?

40:020:033 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

40:020:034 So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

40:021:001 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

40:021:002 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.

40:021:003 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

40:021:004 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

40:021:005 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

40:021:006 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

40:021:007 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

40:021:008 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

40:021:009 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

40:021:010 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

40:021:011 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

40:021:012 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

40:021:013 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

40:021:014 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

40:021:015 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased,

40:021:016 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
