7 They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it, and He sat on it. 8 And many [of the people] spread their coats on the road [as an act of tribute and homage before a new king], and others [scattered a layer of] leafy branches which they had cut from the fields [honoring Him as Messiah].(A) 9 Those who went in front and those who were following [Him] were shouting [in joy and praise],

“Hosanna ((a)Save, I pray)!
Blessed (praised, glorified) is He who comes in the name of the Lord!(B)

“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!
Hosanna in the highest [heaven]!”
