Now this took place so that what was spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled:
Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; He is righteous and endowed with salvation, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
Now all this took place so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled:
And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them on immediately.”
But all this has taken place so that the Scriptures of the prophets will be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left Him and fled.
They *brought the colt to Jesus and *put their cloaks on it; and He sat on it.
And they brought it to Jesus, and they threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it.
On the next day, when the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
“Do not fear, daughter of Zion; behold, your King is coming, seated on a donkey’s colt.”
