The Good News According to Mark, Chapter 11
{11:1} When they drew near to Jerusalem, to [1>]Bethsphage[<1] and
Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, {11:2}
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. {11:3} If anyone
asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord needs him;' and
immediately he will send him back here."
{11:4} They went away, and found a young donkey tied at the door
outside in the open street, and they untied him. {11:5} Some of those
who stood there asked them, "What are you doing, untying the young
donkey?" {11:6} They said to them just as Yeshua had said, and they
let them go.
{11:7} They brought the young donkey to Yeshua, and threw their
garments on it, and Yeshua sat on it. {11:8} Many spread their
garments on the way, and others were cutting down branches from the
trees, and spreading them on the road. {11:9} Those who went in front,
and those who followed, cried out, "[2>]Hoshia'na[<2]! Blessed is he
who comes in the name of the Lord![3] {11:10} Blessed is the kingdom
of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hoshia'na
in the highest!"
{11:11} Yeshua 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.
{11:12} The next day, when they had come out from Bethany, he was
hungry. {11:13} Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to
see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he
found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. {11:14}
Yeshua told it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again!" and his
disciples heard it.
{11:15} They came to Jerusalem, and Yeshua entered into the temple,
and began to throw out those who sold and those who bought in the
temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats
of those who sold the doves. {11:16} He would not allow anyone to
carry a container through the temple. {11:17} He taught, saying to
them, "Isn't it written, 'My house will be called a house of prayer
for all the nations?'[4] But you have made it a den of robbers!"[5]
{11:18} The chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how
they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the multitude
was astonished at his teaching.
{11:19} When evening came, he went out of the city. {11:20} As they
passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the
roots. {11:21} Peter, remembering, said to him, "Rabbi, look! The fig
tree which you cursed has withered away."
{11:22} Yeshua answered them, "Have faith in God. {11:23} For most
certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, 'Be taken up and
cast into the sea,' and doesn't doubt in his heart, but believes that
what he says is happening; he shall have whatever he says. {11:24}
Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for,
believe that you have received them, and you shall have them. {11:25}
Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against
anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you
your transgressions. {11:26} But if you do not forgive, neither will
your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions."
{11:27} They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking in the
temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders came to
him, {11:28} and they began saying to him, "By what authority do you
do these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?"
{11:29} Yeshua said to them, "I will ask you one question. Answer
me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. {11:30}
The immersion of Yochanan--was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me."
{11:31} They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we should say,
'From heaven;' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'
{11:32} If we should say, 'From men'"--they feared the people, for all
held Yochanan to really be a prophet. {11:33} They answered Yeshua,
"We don't know."
Yeshua said to them, "Neither do I tell you by what authority I do
these things."
