Chapter 19
31And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘ The Lord has need of it.’?' 32So those who were sent left and found it just as He had told them. 33And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, 'Why are you untying the colt?' 34They said, 'The Lord has need of it.' 35And they brought it to Jesus, and they threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36Now as He was going, they were spreading their cloaks on the road. 37And as soon as He was approaching, near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen,King James Version
Chapter 19
31And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him. 32And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them. 33And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34And they said, The Lord hath need of him. 35And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon. 36And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way. 37And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; 38Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. 39And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. 40And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.Christian Standard Bible
32So those who were sent left and found it just as he had told them.
33As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt? "
34"The Lord needs it," they said.
35Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their clothes on the colt, they helped Jesus get on it.
36As he was going along, they were spreading their clothes on the road.
37Now he came near the path down the Mount of Olives, and the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen:
New Living Translation
32So they went and found the colt, just as Jesus had said.
33And sure enough, as they were untying it, the owners asked them, 'Why are you untying that colt?'
34And the disciples simply replied, 'The Lord needs it.'
35So they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their garments over it for him to ride on.

Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” 39And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” 40He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”New International Version
