Mark 11

1And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,

2And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you, and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath sat: loose him, and bring him.

3And if any man shall say to you, What are you doing? say ye that the Lord hath need of him: and immediately he will let him come hither.

4And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate without, in the meeting of two ways: and they loose him.

5And some of them that stood there, said to them: What do you loosing the colt?

6Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them; and they let him go with them.

7And they brought the colt to Jesus; and they lay their garments on him, and he sat upon him.

8And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down boughs from the trees, and strewed them in the way.

9And they that went before and they that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

10Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that cometh: Hosanna in the highest.

11And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple: and having viewed all things round about, when now the eventide was come, he went out to Bethania with the twelve.

12And the next day when they came out from Bethania, he was hungry.

13And when he had seen afar off a fig tree having leaves, he came if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he was come to it, he found nothing but leaves. For it was not the time for figs.

14And answering he said to it: May no man hereafter eat fruit of thee any more for ever. And his disciples heard it.

15And they came to Jerusalem. And when he was entered into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the chairs of them that sold doves.

16And he suffered not that any man should carry a vessel through the temple;

17And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written, My house shall be called the house of prayer to all nations? But you have made it a den of thieves.

18Which when the chief priests and the scribes had heard, they sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because the whole multitude was in admiration at his doctrine.

19And when evening was come, he went forth out of the city.

20And when they passed by in the morning they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

21And Peter remembering, said to him: Rabbi, behold the fig tree, which thou didst curse, is withered away.

22And Jesus answering, saith to them: Have the faith of God.

23Amen I say to you, that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou removed and be cast into the sea, and shall not stagger in his heart, but believe, that whatsoever he saith shall be done; it shall be done unto him.

24Therefore I say unto you, all things, whatsoever you ask when ye pray, believe that you shall receive; and they shall come unto you.

25And when you shall stand to pray, forgive, if you have aught against any man; that your Father also, who is in heaven, may forgive you your sins.

26But if you will not forgive, neither will your Father that is in heaven, forgive you your sins.

27And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients,

28And they say to him: By what authority dost thou these things? and who hath given thee this authority that thou shouldst do these things?

29And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one word, and answer you me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

30The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.

31But they thought with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not believe him?

32If we say, From men, we fear the people. For all men counted John that he was a prophet indeed.

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

1Et cum appropinquarent Jerosolymæ et Bethaniæ ad montem Olivarum, mittit duos ex discipulis suis,

2et ait illis: Ite in castellum, quod contra vos est, et statim introëuntes illuc, invenietis pullum ligatum, super quem nemo adhuc hominum sedit: solvite illum, et adducite.

3Et si quis vobis dixerit: Quid facitis? dicite, quia Domino necessarius est: et continuo illum dimittet huc.

4Et abeuntes invenerunt pullum ligatum ante januam foris in bivio: et solvunt eum.

5Et quidam de illic stantibus dicebant illis: Quid facitis solventes pullum?

6Qui dixerunt eis sicut præceperat illis Jesus, et dimiserunt eis.

7Et duxerunt pullum ad Jesum: et imponunt illi vestimenta sua, et sedit super eum.

8Multi autem vestimenta sua straverunt in via: alii autem frondes cædebant de arboribus, et sternebant in via.

9Et qui præibant, et qui sequebantur, clamabant, dicentes: Hosanna: benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini:

10benedictum quod venit regnum patris nostri David: hosanna in excelsis.

11Et introivit Jerosolymam in templum: et circumspectis omnibus, cum jam vespera esset hora, exiit in Bethaniam cum duodecim.

12Et alia die cum exirent a Bethania, esuriit.

13Cumque vidisset a longe ficum habentem folia, venit si quid forte inveniret in ea: et cum venisset ad eam, nihil invenit præter folia: non enim erat tempus ficorum.

14Et respondens dixit ei: Jam non amplius in æternum ex te fructum quisquam manducet. Et audiebant discipuli ejus.

15Et veniunt in Jerosolymam. Et cum introisset in templum, cœpit ejicere vendentes et ementes in templo: et mensas numulariorum, et cathedras vendentium columbas evertit:

16et non sinebat ut quisquam transferret vas per templum:

17et docebat, dicens eis: Nonne scriptum est: Quia domus mea, domus orationis vocabitur omnibus gentibus? vos autem fecistis eam speluncam latronum.

18Quo audito principes sacerdotum et scribæ, quærebant quomodo eum perderent: timebant enim eum, quoniam universa turba admirabatur super doctrina ejus.

19Et cum vespera facta esset, egrediebatur de civitate.

20Et cum mane transirent, viderunt ficum aridam factam a radicibus.

21Et recordatus Petrus, dixit ei: Rabbi, ecce ficus, cui maledixisti, aruit.

22Et respondens Jesus ait illis: Habete fidem Dei.

23Amen dico vobis, quia quicumque dixerit huic monti: Tollere, et mittere in mare, et non hæsitaverit in corde suo, sed crediderit, quia quodcumque dixerit fiat, fiet ei.

24Propterea dico vobis, omnia quæcumque orantes petitis, credite quia accipietis, et evenient vobis.

25Et cum stabitis ad orandum, dimittite si quis habetis adversus aliquem: ut et Pater vester, qui in cælis est, dimittat vobis peccata vestra.

26Quod si vos non dimiseritis: nec Pater vester, qui in cælis est, dimittet vobis peccata vestra.

27Et veniunt rursus Jerosolymam. Et cum ambularet in templo, accedunt ad eum summi sacerdotes, et scribæ, et seniores:

28et dicunt ei: In qua potestate hæc facis? et quis dedit tibi hanc potestatem ut ista facias?

29Jesus autem respondens, ait illis: Interrogabo vos et ego unum verbum, et respondete mihi: et dicam vobis in qua potestate hæc faciam.

30Baptismus Joannis, de cælo erat, an ex hominibus? Respondete mihi.

31At illi cogitabant secum, dicentes: Si dixerimus: De cælo, dicet: Quare ergo non credidistis ei?

32Si dixerimus: Ex hominibus, timemus populum: omnes enim habebant Joannem quia vere propheta esset.

33Et respondentes dicunt Jesu: Nescimus. Et respondens Jesus ait illis: Neque ego dico vobis in qua potestate hæc faciam.

1And as they were approaching Jerusalem and Bethania, toward the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

2and he said to them: “Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately upon entering there, you will find a colt tied, on which no man has yet sat. Release him and bring him.

3And if anyone will say to you: ‘What are you doing?’ Say that the Lord has need of him. And he will immediately send him here.”

4And going out, they found the colt tied before the outer gate, at the meeting of two ways. And they untied him.

5And some of those who were standing there said to them, “What are you doing by releasing the colt?”

6And they spoke to them just as Jesus had instructed them. And they permitted them.

7And they led the colt to Jesus. And they placed their garments on it; and he sat upon it.

8Then many spread their garments along the way; but others cut down leafy branches from trees and scattered them on the way.

9And those who went ahead, and those who followed, cried out saying: “Hosanna! Blessed is he who has arrived in the name of the Lord.

10Blessed is the advent of the kingdom of our father David. Hosanna in the highest!”

11And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple. And having looked around at everything, since it was now the evening hour, he went out to Bethania with the twelve.

12And the next day, as they were departing from Bethania, he was hungry.

13And when he had seen a fig tree with leaves in the distance, he went to it, in case he might find something on it. And when he had gone to it, he found nothing but leaves. For it was not the season for figs.

14And in response, he said to it, “From now on and forever, may no one eat fruit from you again!” And his disciples heard this.

15And they went to Jerusalem. And when he had entered into the temple, he began to cast out the sellers and the buyers in the temple. And he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and the chairs of the vendors of doves.

16And he would not permit anyone to carry goods through the temple.

17And he taught them, saying: “Is it not written: ‘For my house shall be called the house of prayer for all nations?’ But you have made it into a den of robbers.”

18And when the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, had heard this, they sought a means by which they might destroy him. For they feared him, because the entire multitude was in admiration over his doctrine.

19And when evening had arrived, he departed from the city.

20And when they passed by in the morning, they saw that the fig tree had dried up from the roots.

21And Peter, remembering, said to him, “Master, behold, the fig tree that you cursed has withered.”

22And in response, Jesus said to them: “Have the faith of God.

23Amen I say to you, that whoever will say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and who will not have hesitated in his heart, but will have believed: then whatever he has said be done, it shall be done for him.

24For this reason, I say to you, all things whatsoever that you ask for when praying: believe that you will receive them, and they will happen for you.

25And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your sins.

26But if you will not forgive, neither will your Father, who is in heaven, forgive you your sins.”

27And they went again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, and the elders approached him.

28And they said to him: “By what authority do you do these things? And who has given you this authority, so that you would do these things?”

29But in response, Jesus said to them: “I also will ask you one word, and if you answer me, I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

30The baptism of John: was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.”

31But they discussed it among themselves, saying: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’

32If we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the people. For they all hold that John was a true prophet.”

33And answering, they said to Jesus, “We do not know.” And in response, Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
