Palm Sunday

They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”

Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your King comes to you, righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

“Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do, yet fails to do it, is guilty of sin.

For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,

“Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion. See, your King is coming, seated on the colt of a donkey.”

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

O LORD, save us, we pray. We beseech You, O LORD, cause us to prosper!
