d. (32)And Jesus stood still, and called
them, and said: What will ye that I shall do to you? (33)They say to
him: Lord, that our eyes may be opened. (34)And Jesus, moved with
compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received
sight; and they followed him.

AND when they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the
mount of the Olives, Jesus sent forth two disciples, (2)saying to
them: Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye will
find an ass tied, and a colt with her; loose and bring them to me.
(3)And if any one say aught to you, ye shall say: The Lord has need of
them; and straightway he will send them.

(4)Now all this has been done, that it might be fulfilled which was

But ye make it a den of robbers.

(14)And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he
healed them. (15)But the chief priests and the scribes, seeing the
wonders that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and
saying, Hosanna to the Son of David, were much displeased, (16)and
said to him: Dost thou hear what these say? And Jesus says to them:
Yea; did ye never read: From the mouth of babes and sucklings thou
