The Triumphal Entry
Zechariah 9:9–13; Matthew 21:1–11; Luke 19:28–40; John 12:12–19
1And when they came near to Jerusalem, to Beth-phage and Bethany, at the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,+ 2And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him.+ 3And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away.+ 4And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose.+ 5And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass? 6And they said to them the words which Jesus had said; and they let them go. 7And they took the young ass to Jesus, and put their clothing on him, and he got on his back.+ 8And a great number put down their clothing in the way; and others put down branches which they had taken from the fields.+ 9And those who went in front, and those who came after, were crying, Glory: A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord:+ 10A blessing on the coming kingdom of our father David: Glory in the highest.+ 11And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.+Jesus Curses the Fig Tree
Matthew 21:18–22; Mark 11:20–25
12And on the day after, when they had come out from Bethany, he was in need of food.+ 13And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.+ 14And he said to it, Let no man take fruit from you for ever. And his disciples took note of his words.+Jesus Cleanses the Temple
Matthew 21:12–17; Luke 19:45–48; John 2:12–25
15And they came to Jerusalem; and he went into the Temple, and sent out those who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were offering doves for money;+ 16And he would not let any man take a vessel through the Temple. 17And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.+ 18And it came to the ears of the chief priests and scribes, and they took thought how they might put him to death; being in fear of him, because all the people were full of wonder at his teaching.+ 19And every evening he went out of the town.+The Withered Fig Tree
Matthew 21:18–22; Mark 11:12–14
20And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.+ 21And Peter, having a memory of it, said to him, Master, see, the tree which was cursed by you is dead.+ 22And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.+ 23Truly I say to you, Whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and be put into the sea; and has no doubt in his heart, but has faith that what he says will come about, he will have his desire.+ 24For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.+ 25And whenever you make a prayer, let there be forgiveness in your hearts, if you have anything against anyone; so that you may have forgiveness for your sins from your Father who is in heaven.+ 26[]
