ASV_Strong : Matthew 21
1. And[G2532] when[G3753] they drew nigh[G1448] unto[G1519] Jerusalem[G2414], and[G2532] came[G2064] unto[G4314] Bethphage[G967], unto[G4314] the mount[G3735] of Olives[G1636], then[G5119] Jesus[G2424] sent[G649] two[G1417] disciples[G3101],
2. saying[G3004] unto them[G846], Go[G4198] into[G1519] the village[G2968] that is over against[G561] you[G5216], and[G2532] straightway[G2112] ye shall find[G2147] an ass[G3688] tied[G1210], and[G2532] a colt[G4454] with[G3326] her[G846]: loose[G3089] them[G71], and bring them unto me[G3427].
3. And[G2532] if[G1437] any[G5100] one say[G2036] aught[G5100] unto you[G5213], ye shall say[G3754], The Lord[G2962] hath[G2192] need[G5532] of them[G846]; and[G1161] straightway[G2112] he will send[G649] them[G846].
4. Now[G3650] this[G5124] is come to pass[G1096], that[G2443] it might be fulfilled[G4137] which was spoken[G4483] through[G1223] the prophet[G4396], saying[G3004],
5. Tell ye[G2036] the daughter[G2364] of Zion[G4622], Behold[G2400], thy[G4675] King[G935] cometh[G2064] unto thee[G4671], Meek[G4239], and[G2532] riding[G1910] upon[G1909] an ass[G3688], And[G2532] upon a colt[G4454] the foal[G5207] of an ass[G5268].
6. And[G1161] the disciples[G3101] went[G4198], and[G2532] did[G4160] even as[G2531] Jesus[G2424] appointed[G4367] them[G846],
7. and brought[G71] the ass[G3688], and[G2532] the colt[G4454], and[G2532] put[G2007] on[G1883] them[G846] their[G846] garments[G2440]; and[G2532] he sat[G1940] thereon[G846].
8. And[G1161] the[G3793] most[G4118] part of the multitude[G3793] spread[G4766] their[G1438] garments[G2440] in[G1722] the way[G1161]; and others[G243] cut[G2875] branches[G2798] from[G575] the trees[G1186], and[G2532] spread[G4766] them in[G1722] the way[G3598].
9. And[G1161] the multitudes[G3793] that went before[G4254] him[G2532], and that followed[G190], cried[G2896], saying[G3004], Hosanna[G5614] to the son[G5207] of David[G1138]: Blessed[G2127] is he that cometh[G2064] in[G1722] the name[G3686] of the Lord[G2962]; Hosanna[G5614] in[G1722] the highest[G5310].
10. And[G2532] when[G1525] he[G846] was come[G1525] into[G1519] Jerusalem[G2414], all[G3956] the city[G4172] was stirred[G4579], saying[G3004], Who[G5101] is[G2076] this[G3778]?
11. And[G1161] the multitudes[G3793] said[G3004], This[G3778] is[G2076] the prophet[G4396], Jesus[G2424], from[G575] Nazareth[G3478] of Galilee[G1056].
12. And[G2532] Jesus[G2424] entered[G1525] into[G1519] the temple[G2411] of God[G2316], and[G2532] cast out[G1544] all[G3956] them that sold[G4453] and[G2532] bought[G59] in[G1722] the temple[G2411], and[G2532] overthrew[G2690] the tables[G5132] of the money-changers[G2855], and[G2532] the seats[G2515] of them that sold[G4453] the doves[G4058];
13. and[G2532] he saith[G3004] unto them[G846], It is written[G1125], My[G3450] house[G3624] shall be called[G2564] a house[G3624] of prayer[G4335]: but[G1161] ye[G5210] make[G4160] it[G846] a den[G4693] of robbers[G3027].
14. And[G2532] the blind[G5185] and[G2532] the lame[G5560] came[G4334] to him[G846] in[G1722] the temple[G2411]; and[G2532] he healed[G2323] them[G846].
15. But[G1161] when[G1492] the chief priests[G749] and[G2532] the scribes[G1122] saw[G1492] the wonderful things[G2297] that[G3739] he did[G4160], and[G2532] the children[G3816] that were crying[G2896] in[G1722] the temple[G2411] and[G2532] saying[G3004], Hosanna[G5614] to the son[G5207] of David[G1138]; they were moved with indignation[G23],
16. and[G2532] said[G2036] unto him[G846], Hearest thou[G191] what[G5101] these[G3778] are saying[G3004]? And[G1161] Jesus[G2424] saith[G3004] unto them[G846], Yea[G3483]: did ye[G314] never[G3763] read[G3754], Out[G1537] of the mouth[G4750] of babes[G3516] and[G2532] sucklings[G2337] thou has perfected[G2675] praise[G136]?
17. And[G2532] he left[G2641] them[G846], and went[G1831] forth out[G1854] of the city[G4172] to[G1519] Bethany[G963], and[G2532] lodged[G835] there[G1563].
18. Now[G1161] in the morning[G4405] as he returned[G1877] to[G1519] the city[G4172], he hungered[G3983].
19. And[G2532] seeing[G1492] a[G1520] fig tree[G4808] by[G1909] the way[G3598] side[G2064], he came to[G1909] it[G846], and[G2532] found[G2147] nothing[G3762] thereon[G846], but[G1487] leaves[G5444] only[G3440]; and[G2532] he saith[G3004] unto it[G846], Let[G1096] there be[G1096] no[G3371] fruit[G2590] from[G1537] thee[G4675] henceforward for[G1519] ever[G165]. And[G2532] immediately[G3916] the fig tree[G4808] withered away[G3583].
20. And[G2532] when[G1492] the disciples[G3101] saw[G1492] it[G2296], they marvelled, saying[G3004], How[G4459] did[G3583] the fig tree[G4808] immediately[G3916] wither away[G3583]?
21. And Jesus[G2424] answered[G611] and said[G2036] unto them[G846], Verily[G281] I say[G2036] unto you[G5213], If[G1437] ye have[G2192] faith[G4102], and[G2532] doubt[G1252] not[G3361], ye shall[G4160] not[G3361] only[G3440] do[G4160] what[G3588] is done to the fig tree[G4808], but[G235] even if[G2579] ye shall say[G2036] unto[G3735] this[G5129] mountain[G3735], Be thou taken up[G142] and[G2532] cast[G906] into[G1519] the sea[G2281], it shall be done[G1096].
22. And[G2532] all things[G3956], whatsoever[G3745] ye[G2532] shall ask[G154] in[G1722] prayer[G4335], believing[G4100], ye shall receive[G2983].
23. And[G2532] when[G2064] he[G846] was come[G2064] into[G1519] the temple[G2411], the chief priests[G749] and[G2532] the elders[G4245] of the people[G2992] came[G4334] unto him[G846] as he was teaching[G1321], and said[G3004], By[G1722] what[G4169] authority[G1849] doest thou[G4160] these things[G5023]? and[G2532] who[G5101] gave[G1325] thee[G4671] this[G3778] authority[G1849]?
24. And[G1161] Jesus[G2424] answered[G611] and said[G2036] unto them[G846], I also[G2504] will ask[G2065] you[G5209] one[G1520] question[G3056], which[G3739] if[G1437] ye tell[G2036] me[G3427], I likewise[G2504] will tell[G2046] you[G5213] by[G1722] what[G4169] authority[G1849] I do[G4160] these things[G5023].
25. The baptism[G908] of John[G2491], whence[G4159] was it[G2258]? from[G1537] heaven[G3772] or[G2228] from[G1537] men[G444]? And[G1161] they reasoned[G1260] with[G3844] themselves[G1438], saying[G3004], If[G1437] we shall say[G2036], From[G1537] heaven[G3772]; he will say[G2046] unto us[G1223], Why[G5101] then[G3767] did ye[G4100] not[G3756] believe[G4100] him[G846]?
26. But[G1161] if[G1437] we shall say[G2036], From[G1537] men[G444]; we fear[G5399] the multitude[G3793]; for[G1063] all[G3956] hold[G2192] John[G2491] as[G5613] a prophet[G4396].
27. And[G2532] they answered[G611] Jesus[G2424], and said[G2036], We[G1492] know not[G3756]. He[G846] also said[G5346] unto them[G846], Neither[G3761] tell[G3004] I[G1473] you[G5213] by[G1722] what[G4169] authority[G1849] I do[G4160] these things[G5023].
28. But[G1161] what[G5101] think[G1380] ye[G5213]? A man[G444] had[G2192] two[G1417] sons[G5043]; and[G2532] he came[G4334] to the first[G4413], and said[G2036], Son[G5043], go[G5217] work[G2038] to-day[G4594] in[G1722] the[G3450] vineyard[G290].
29. And he answered[G611] and said[G2036], I will[G2309] not[G3756]: but[G1161] afterward[G5305] he repented[G3338] himself[G565], and went.
30. And[G2532] he came[G4334] to the second[G1208], and said[G2036] likewise[G5615]. And[G1161] he answered[G611] and said[G2036], I[G1473] go[G2962], sir: and[G2532] went[G565] not[G3756].
31. Which[G5101] of[G1537] the two[G1417] did[G4160] the will[G2307] of his father[G3962]? They say[G3004], The first[G4413]. Jesus[G2424] saith[G3004] unto them[G846], Verily[G281] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], that[G3754] the publicans[G5057] and[G2532] the harlots[G4204] go[G4254] into[G1519] the kingdom[G932] of God[G4254] before[G4254] you[G5209].
32. For[G1063] John[G2491] came[G2064] unto[G4314] you[G5209] in[G1722] the way[G3598] of righteousness[G1343], and[G2532] ye believed[G4100] him[G846] not[G3756]; but[G1161] the publicans[G5057] and[G2532] the harlots[G4204] believed[G4100] him[G846]: and[G1161] ye[G5210], when ye saw[G1492] it[G3756], did not even repent[G3338] yourselves afterward[G5305], that[G3588] ye might believe[G4100] him[G846].
33. Hear[G191] another[G243] parable[G444]: There was[G2258] a man[G5100] that was a householder[G3617], who[G3748] planted[G5452] a vineyard[G290], and[G2532] set a hedge[G5418] about[G4060] it[G846], and[G2532] digged[G3736] a winepress[G3025] in[G1722] it[G846], and[G2532] built[G3618] a tower[G4444], and[G2532] let[G1554] it[G846] out[G1554] to husbandmen[G1092], and[G2532] went into another country[G589].
34. And[G1161] when[G3753] the season[G2540] of the fruits[G2590] drew near[G1448], he sent[G649] his[G846] servants[G1401] to[G4314] the husbandmen[G1092], to receive[G2983] his[G846] fruits[G2590].
35. And[G2532] the husbandmen[G1092] took[G2983] his[G846] servants[G1401], and beat[G1194] one[G3303], and[G1161] killed[G615] another[G3739], and[G1161] stoned[G3036] another[G3739].
36. Again[G3825], he sent[G649] other[G243] servants[G1401] more[G4119] than the first[G4413]: and[G2532] they did[G4160] unto them[G846] in like manner[G5615].
37. But[G1161] afterward he sent[G649] unto[G4314] them[G846] his[G846] son[G5207], saying[G3004], They will reverence[G1788] my[G3450] son[G5207].
38. But[G1161] the husbandmen[G1092], when[G1492] they saw[G1492] the son[G5207], said[G2036] among[G1722] themselves[G1438], This[G3778] is[G2076] the heir[G2818]; come[G1205], let us kill[G615] him[G846], and[G2532] take[G2722] his[G846] inheritance[G2817].
39. And[G2532] they took[G2983] him[G846], and cast[G1544] him forth out[G1854] of the vineyard[G290], and[G2532] killed him[G615].
40. When[G3752] therefore[G3767] the lord[G2962] of the vineyard[G290] shall come[G2064], what[G5101] will he do[G4160] unto[G1092] those[G1565] husbandmen[G1092]?
41. They say[G3004] unto him[G846], He will[G622] miserably[G2560] destroy[G622] those[G846] miserable men[G2556], and[G2532] will let out[G1554] the vineyard[G290] unto[G1092] other[G243] husbandmen[G1092], who[G3748] shall render[G591] him[G846] the fruits[G2590] in[G1722] their[G846] seasons[G2540].
42. Jesus[G2424] saith[G3004] unto them[G846], Did ye[G314] never[G3763] read[G314] in[G1722] the scriptures[G1124], The stone[G3037] which[G3739] the builders[G3618] rejected[G593], The same[G3778] was[G1096] made[G1519] the head[G2776] of the corner[G1137]; This[G3778] was[G1096] from[G3844] the Lord[G2962], And[G2532] it is[G1096] marvelous[G2298] in[G1722] our[G2257] eyes[G3788]?
43. Therefore[G1223] say[G5124] I[G3004] unto you[G3754], The kingdom[G932] of God[G2316] shall be taken[G142] away from[G575] you[G5216], and[G2532] shall be given[G1325] to a nation[G1484] bringing forth[G4160] the fruits[G2590] thereof[G846].
44. And[G2532] he that falleth[G4098] on[G1909] this[G5126] stone[G3037] shall be broken[G4917] to pieces[G1161]: but on[G1909] whomsoever[G3739] it[G302] shall fall[G4098], it will scatter[G3039] him[G846] as dust[G3039].
45. And[G2532] when[G191] the chief priests[G749] and[G2532] the Pharisees[G5330] heard[G191] his[G846] parables[G3850], they perceived[G1097] that[G3754] he spake[G3004] of[G4012] them[G846].
46. And[G2532] when they sought[G2212] to lay hold on[G2902] him[G846], they feared[G5399] the multitudes[G3793], because[G1894] they took[G2192] him[G846] for[G5613] a prophet[G4396].
