They brought the donkey and the colt to Jesus and laid their coats on them, and Jesus sat on them.
Then the officers hurried, and each man took off his own coat and put it on the stairs for Jehu. They blew the trumpet and shouted, “Jehu is king!”
and said to them, “Go to the town you can see there. When you enter it, you will quickly find a donkey tied there with its colt. Untie them and bring them to me.
The followers went and did what Jesus told them to do.
Many people spread their coats on the road. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
