Luke 19:34

Jesus

32 So those who were sent went out and found it just as Jesus had told them.

33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”

“The Lord needs it,” they answered.

35 Then they led the colt to Jesus, threw their cloaks over it, and put Jesus on it.

36 As He rode along, the people spread their cloaks on the road.
