Gospel according to John

On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and cried out, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!"

Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,

"Don't be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt."

His disciples didn't understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.

The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it.

For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.

The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him."

These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we want to see Jesus."

Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.

"Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? 'Father, save me from this time?' But for this cause I came to this time.

Father, glorify your name!" Then there came a voice out of the sky, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."

The multitude therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes.
