telling them, &#8220;Go to the village ahead of you.<n id="1" /> Right away you will find a donkey tied there, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> as Jesus was going out of the temple courts and walking away, his disciples came to show him the temple buildings.<n id="2" />

&#8216;No,&#8217; they replied.<n id="1" /> &#8216;There won&#8217;t be enough for you and for us. Go instead to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.&#8217;

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;Then he will say<n id="1" /> to those on his left, &#8216;Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire that has been prepared for the devil and his angels!

<t /><p class="bodytext">While<n id="1" /> they were going, some<n id="2" /> of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened.

Therefore go<n id="1" /> and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Soon<n id="1" /> afterward<n id="2" /> Jesus<n id="3" /> went to a town<n id="4" /> called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now when<n id="1" /> the days drew near<n id="2" /> for him to be taken up,<n id="3" /> Jesus<n id="4" /> set out resolutely<n id="5" /> to go to Jerusalem.<n id="6" />

The expert in religious law<n id="1" /> said, &#8220;The one who showed mercy<n id="2" /> to him.&#8221; So<n id="3" /> Jesus said to him, &#8220;Go and do<n id="4" /> the same.&#8221;p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now as they went on their way, Jesus<n id="1" /> entered a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him as a guest.<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> he said to them, &#8220;Suppose one of you<n id="2" /> has a friend, and you go to him<n id="3" /> at midnight and say to him, &#8216;Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,<n id="4" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">At that time,<n id="1" /> some Pharisees<n id="2" /> came up and said to Jesus,<n id="3" /> &#8220;Get away from here,<n id="4" /> because Herod<n id="5" /> wants to kill you.&#8221;

But<n id="1" /> he said to them, &#8220;Go<n id="2" /> and tell that fox,<n id="3" /> &#8216;Look, I am casting out demons and performing healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day<n id="4" /> I will complete my work.<n id="5" />

Another<n id="1" /> said, &#8216;I have bought five yoke of oxen,<n id="2" /> and I am going out<n id="3" /> to examine them. Please excuse me.&#8217;

So he went and worked for<n id="1" /> one of the citizens of that country, who<n id="2" /> sent him to his fields to feed pigs.<n id="3" />

I will get up and go to my father and say to him, &#8220;Father, I have sinned<n id="1" /> against heaven<n id="2" /> and against<n id="3" /> you.

When<n id="1" /> he saw them he said, &#8220;Go<n id="2" /> and show yourselves to the priests.&#8221;<n id="3" /> And<n id="4" /> as they went along, they were cleansed.

For the Son of Man is to go just as it has been determined,<n id="1" /> but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!&#8221;

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> Jesus<n id="2" /> went out and made his way,<n id="3" /> as he customarily did, to the Mount of Olives,<n id="4" /> and the disciples followed him.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> that very day two of them<n id="2" /> were on their way to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles<n id="3" /> from Jerusalem.<n id="4" />
