11  A, no ka tata ratou ki Hiruharama, ki Petapaki, ki Petani, a ka tae ki Maunga Oriwa, tokorua ana akonga i tonoa e ia,

A i mea ia ki a raua, Haere ki te kainga e anga mai ana ki a korua: e tomo kau ki reira, ka kite korua i tetahi kuao e here ana, kahore ano kia nohoia e te tangata; wetekina, arahina mai.

A ki te ki mai tetahi tangata ki a korua, He aha tenei ka meinga ai e korua? ka mea atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mana: na ka tukua tonutia mai ki konei.

Na haere ana raua, ka kite i te kuao e here ana ki te kuwaha i waho i te ara; a wetekina ana e raua.

A ka mea etahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira ki a raua, he aha ta korua e wewete na i te kuao?

Na ka korerotia e raua ki a ratou ta Ihu i mea ai: a tukua ana raua e ratou.

Ka arahina te kuao ki a Ihu, na wharikitia ana o raua kakahu ki runga ki a ia; a noho ana ia i runga.

Na he tokomaha i whariki i o ratou kakahu ki te ara: ko etahi i kokoti i nga manga o nga rakau, wharikitia ana ki te ara.

Ko te hunga i haere i mua, me te hunga i haere i muri, i karanga, i mea, Ohana: Ka whakapaingia ia e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki:

10 Ka whakapaingia te rangatiratanga e haere mai ana, te rangatiratanga o to tatou matua o Rawiri: Ohana i runga rawa.

11 Na ka tomo a Ihu ki Hiruharama, ki roto hoki ki te temepara: a, ka mutu tana tirotiro i nga mea katoa, ko te wa hoki o te ahiahi, ka haere ratou ko te tekau ma rua ki Petani.

12 Na, i te aonga ake, i a ratou kua puta i Petani, ka hiakai ia:

13 A, i tona kitenga i tetahi piki i tawhiti, he rau ona, ka haere ia, me kore e kitea tetahi mea i runga: a, no tona taenga, kihai i kitea e ia tetahi mea, he rau anake: ehara hoki i te wa o te piki.

14 Na ka oho a Ihu, ka mea ki taua rakau, Kaua rawa te tangata e kai i tetahi hua ou ake tonu atu; me te whakarongo ano ana akonga.

15 A ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama: na ka tomo a Ihu ki te temepara, ka anga ki te pei ki waho i te hunga e hoko atu ana, e hoko mai ana i roto i te temepara, a whakatahuritia ake nga tepu o nga kaiwhakawhitiwhiti moni, me nga nohoanga o nga kaihoko k ukupa;

16 A kihai i tukua e ia kia mauria tetahi oko e te tangata ra te temepara.

17 A i whakaako ia, i mea ki a ratou, Kahore koia i tuhituhia, Ka kiia toku whare he whare inoi mo nga tauiwi katoa? otiia kua meinga nei e koutou hei ana mo nga kaipahua.

18 I rongo hoki nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi, a ka rapu ki te pehea e whakangaromia ai ia: i mataku hoki ratou i a ia, no te mea i miharo te mano katoa ki tana ako.

19 A i nga ahiahi ka haere ia ki waho o te pa.

20 A, i te ata i a ratou e haere ana, ka kite i te piki, kua maroke ake i nga pakiaka.

21 Na ka mahara a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, na, te piki i kanga ra e koe, kua maroke.

22 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kia mau te whakapono ki te Atua.

23 He pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te mea tetahi ki tenei maunga, Kia ranga atu koe, kia whakataka ki te moana: e kore hoki e ruarua tona ngakau, engari ka whakapono ia tera e puta mai nga mea i kiia e ia; ka whiwhi ia ki tana i mea ai.

24 Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga mea katoa e tono ai koutou ina inoi, me whakapono ka riro mai i a koutou, a ka whiwhi koutou.

25 A, ka tu koutou, ka karakia, ki te mea he take riri ta koutou ki tetahi, murua: kia murua ai hoki o koutou he e to koutou Matua i te rangi.

26 Na ki te kore koutou e muru, e kore ano to koutou Matua i te rangi e muru i o koutou he.

27 Na ka tae ano ratou ki Hiruharama: a, i a ia e haereere ana i te temepara, ka haere mai ki a ia nga tohunga nui, me nga karaipi, me nga kaumatua:

28 Ka mea ki a ia, Tena, te mana i meatia ai enei mea e koe? na wai hoki tenei mana i hoatu ki a koe, i mea ai koe i enei mea?

29 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Maku hoki e ui ki a koutou kia kotahi kupu, ma koutou e whakahoki mai ki ahau, katahi ka korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.

30 Ko te iriiringa a Hoani, no te rangi, no te tangata ranei? korerotia mai ki ahau.

31 A ka korerorero ratou ki a ratou ano, ka mea, Ki te mea tatou, No te rangi; ka mea ia, ha, he aha koutou te whakapono ai ki a ia?

32 A ki te mea tatou, No te tangata; ka mataku ratou i te iwi: ki ta ratou katoa hoki he poropiti pono a Hoani.

33 Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a Ihu, Kahore matou e matau. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, E kore ano e korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(A)(B)

11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany(C) at the Mount of Olives,(D) Jesus sent two of his disciples, saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden.(E) Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”

They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(F) As they untied it, some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,

“Hosanna![a]

“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”[b](G)

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

“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”(H)

11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.(I)

Jesus Curses a Fig Tree and Clears the Temple Courts(J)(K)(L)

12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.(M) 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.

15 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, 16 and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17 And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’[c]?(N) But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’[d](O)

18 The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him,(P) because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.(Q)

19 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[e] went out of the city.(R)

20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(S) look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”

22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[f] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.(T) 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.(U) 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”(V) [26] [g]

The Authority of Jesus Questioned(W)

27 They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”

29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”

31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’ …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)(X)

33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”

Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
