¹ Pereat Samaria, quoniam ad amaritudinem concitavit Deum suum ! in gladio pereant, parvuli eorum elidantur, et fœtæ ejus discindantur !

² Convertere, Israël, ad Dominum Deum tuum, quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.

³ Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum ; et dicite ei : Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum, et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.

⁴ Assur non salvabit nos : super equum non ascendemus, nec dicemus ultra, Dii nostri opera manuum nostrarum : quia ejus, qui in te est, misereberis pupilli.

⁵ Sanabo contritiones eorum ; diligam eos spontanee : quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.

⁶ Ero quasi ros ; Israël germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix ejus ut Libani.

⁷ Ibunt rami ejus, et erit quasi oliva gloria ejus, et odor ejus ut Libani.

⁸ Convertentur sedentes in umbra ejus ; vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea ; memoriale ejus sicut vinum Libani.

⁹ Ephraim, quid mihi ultra idola ? Ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem ; ex me fructus tuus inventus est.

¹⁰ Quis sapiens, et intelliget ista ? intelligens, et sciet hæc ? quia rectæ viæ Domini, et justi ambulabunt in eis ; prævaricatores vero corruent in eis.

¹ When they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

² and said to them, "Go your way into the village that is opposite you. Immediately as you enter into it, you will find a young donkey tied, on which no one has sat. Untie him, and bring him.

³ If anyone asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord needs him;' and immediately he will send him back here."

⁴ They went away, and found a young donkey tied at the door outside in the open street, and they untied him.

⁵ Some of those who stood there asked them, "What are you doing, untying the young donkey?"

⁶ They said to them just as Jesus had said, and they let them go.

⁷ They brought the young donkey to Jesus, and threw their garments on it, and Jesus sat on it.

⁸ Many spread their garments on the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and spreading them on the road.

⁹ Those who went in front, and those who followed, cried out, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

¹⁰ Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"

¹¹ Jesus entered into the temple in Jerusalem. When he had looked around at everything, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
