Luke 19:28

26 He replied, ‘I tell you that everyone who has will be given more; but the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

27 And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”

After Jesus had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

29 As He approached Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, He sent out two of His disciples,

30 saying, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
