chapter_Mark_11
Mark 11:1: And when they come nigh to Jerusalem, to Bethphage, and Bethany, unto the mount of the Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples, Mark 11:2: and saith to them, 'Go away to the village that is over-against you, and immediately, entering into it, ye shall find a colt tied, on which no one of men hath sat, having loosed it, bring it: Mark 11:3: and if any one may say to you, Why do ye this? say ye that the lord hath need of it, and immediately he will send it hither.' Mark 11:4: And they went away, and found the colt tied at the door without, by the two ways, and they loose it, Mark 11:5: and certain of those standing there said to them, 'What do ye &#8212; loosing the colt?' Mark 11:6: and they said to them as Jesus commanded, and they suffered them. Mark 11:7: And they brought the colt unto Jesus, and did cast upon it their garments, and he sat upon it, Mark 11:8: and many did spread their garments in the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way. Mark 11:9: And those going before and those following were crying out, saying, 'Hosanna! blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord; Mark 11:10: blessed is the coming reign, in the name of the Lord, of our father David; Hosanna in the highest.' Mark 11:11: And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple, and having looked round on all things, it being now evening, he went forth to Bethany with the twelve. Mark 11:12: And on the morrow, they having come forth from Bethany, he hungered, Mark 11:13: and having seen a fig-tree afar off having leaves, he came, if perhaps he shall find anything in it, and having come to it, he found nothing except leaves, for it was not a time of figs, Mark 11:14: and Jesus answering said to it, 'No more from thee &#8212; to the age &#8212; may any eat fruit;' and his disciples were hearing. Mark 11:15: And they come to Jerusalem, and Jesus having gone into the temple, began to cast forth those selling and buying in the temple, and the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those selling the doves, he overthrew, Mark 11:16: and he did not suffer that any might bear a vessel through the temple, Mark 11:17: and he was teaching, saying to them, 'Hath it not been written &#8212; My house a house of prayer shall be called for all the nations, and ye did make it a den of robbers?' Mark 11:18: And the scribes and the chief priests heard, and they were seeking how they shall destroy him, for they were afraid of him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching; Mark 11:19: and when evening came, he was going forth without the city. Mark 11:20: And in the morning, passing by, they saw the fig-tree having been dried up from the roots, Mark 11:21: and Peter having remembered saith to him, 'Rabbi, lo, the fig-tree that thou didst curse is dried up.' Mark 11:22: And Jesus answering saith to them, 'Have faith of God; Mark 11:23: for verily I say to you, that whoever may say to this mount, Be taken up, and be cast into the sea, and may not doubt in his heart, but may believe that the things that he saith do come to pass, it shall be to him whatever he may say. Mark 11:24: Because of this I say to you, all whatever &#8212; praying &#8212; ye do ask, believe that ye receive, and it shall be to you. Mark 11:25: 'And whenever ye may stand praying, forgive, if ye have anything against any one, that your Father also who is in the heavens may forgive you your trespasses; Mark 11:26: and, if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in the heavens forgive your trespasses.' Mark 11:27: And they come again to Jerusalem, and in the temple, as he is walking, there come unto him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders, Mark 11:28: and they say to him, 'By what authority dost thou these things? and who gave thee this authority that these things thou mayest do?' Mark 11:29: And Jesus answering said to them, 'I will question you &#8212; I also &#8212; one word; and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things; Mark 11:30: the baptism of John &#8212; from heaven was it? or from men? answer me.' Mark 11:31: And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, 'If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him? Mark 11:32: But if we may say, From men,' &#8212; they were fearing the people, for all were holding John that he was indeed a prophet; Mark 11:33: and answering they say to Jesus, 'We have not known;' and Jesus answering saith to them, 'Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.'
