Mark 11
Big screen- 1And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sends forth two of his disciples,
- 2And says unto them, Go your way into the village opposite to you: and as soon as all of you be entered into it, all of you shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
- 3And if any man say unto you, Why do all of you this? say all of you that the Lord has need of him; and immediately he will send him here.
- 4And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
- 5And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do all of you, loosing the colt?
- 6And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
- 7And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
- 8And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and scattered them in the way.
- 9And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord:
- 10Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that comes in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
- 11And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the evening was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
- 12And on the next day, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
- 13And seeing a fig tree far off having leaves, he came, if lest by any means he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
- 14And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of you hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
- 15And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
- 16And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
- 17And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but all of you have made it a den of thieves.
- 18And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
- 19And when even was come, he went out of the city.
- 20And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
- 21And Peter calling to remembrance says unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which you cursed is withered away.
- 22And Jesus answering says unto them, Have faith in God.
- 23For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be you removed, and be you cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he says shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he says.
- 24Therefore I say unto you, What things whatsoever all of you desire, when all of you pray, believe that all of you receive them, and all of you shall have them.
- 25And when all of you stand praying, forgive, if all of you have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
- 26But if all of you do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
- 27And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
- 28And say unto him, By what authority do you these things? and who gave you this authority to do these things?
- 29And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
- 30The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.
- 31And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did all of you not believe him?
- 32But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
- 33And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering says unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
