MODERN LITERAL VERSION

11:1 And when they draw near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, toward the Mountain of Olives, he sends two of his disciples,

11:2 and says to them, Go your* way into the village that is before you* and immediately as you* travel into it, you* will find a colt tied, upon which {F} no man has sat; loose it and lead it here.

11:3 And if anyone says to you*, Why are you* doing this? Say that the Lord has need of him, and immediately he will send it here.

11:4 And they went away and found a colt tied at the door outside in the road, and they loose him.


11:5 And some of those who stood there said to them, What are you* doing, loosening the colt?


11:6 And they said to them just-as Jesus had commanded and they let them leave.

11:7 And they led the colt to Jesus and cast their garments upon it, and he sat upon it.

11:8 And many spread their garments upon the road, and others were cutting down foliage from the trees and were spreading them in the road.

11:9 And those who precede and those who followed him, cried out, saying, Hosanna; he who comes in the name of the Lord is blessed.

11:10 The kingdom that is coming in the name of the Lord is blessed, of our father David. Hosanna in the highest.


11:11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem and into the temple, and having looked around on all things, already being the evening hour, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

11:12 And on the next-day, when they had come out from Bethany, he hungered.

11:13 And seeing a fig tree from afar having leaves, he came to see if he will then find anything in it and when he came to it, he found nothing except leaves; for* it was not the time of figs.

11:14 And Jesus answering, said to it, No one may eat fruit from you– no longer, forever. And his disciples heard it.


11:15 And they come to Jerusalem and Jesus entered into the temple and began to cast out those who are selling and buying in the temple and turned over the tables of the brokers and the chairs of those who are selling the doves;

11:16 and he did not allow that* anyone should carry goods through the temple.

11:17 And he taught, saying to them, Has it not been written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations? But you* have made* it a den of robbers.' {Is. 56:7 and Jer. 7:11}

11:18 And the scribes and the high-priests heard it and sought how they might destroy him , but they feared him, because all the crowd was astounded at his teaching.

11:19 And when it became evening, he went forth outside the city.

11:20 And as they traveled by in the morning, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

11:21 And having remembered, Peter says to him, Rabbi, behold, the fig tree is dried up which you cursed.


11:22 And answering, Jesus says to them, Have faith of God.

11:23 For* assuredly I say to you*, Whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted up and be cast into the sea, and should not doubt in his heart, but should believe that what he says happens; whatever he says will be to him.

11:24 Therefore I say to you*, All things, as many things as you* may ask for when you* pray, believe that you* receive them and you* will have them.

11:25 And whenever you* stand praying, if you* have anything against anyone, forgive them; that* your* Father who is in the heavens may also forgive you* your* trespasses.

11:26 But if you* do not forgive, neither will your* Father who is in the heavens forgive your* trespasses.
{Mk 11:27-33 & Mt 21:23-27 & Lk 20:1-8 Courtyard of the Temple, Tues.}


11:27 And they come again to Jerusalem and as he is walking in the temple, the high-priests and the scribes and the elders come to him;

11:28 and they say to him, By what authority are you doing these things? And who gave you this authority, that* you should do these things?


11:29 And Jesus answering, said to them, I will also ask you* one question and answer me and I will tell you* by what authority I am doing these things.

11:30 The immersion* of John, was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.


11:31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Then * why did you* not believe him?

11:32 But should we say, From men? (They feared the people. All held John to really be a prophet.)


11:33 And they answering, say to Jesus, We do not know.
And answering, Jesus says to them, Neither do I tell you* by what authority I am doing these things .
