And now he furnishing seed to him sowing, and bread for food, furnish and multiply your sowing-season, and increase the fruits of your justice;)

Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens was made like a man sowing good seed in his field:

And he having answered, said to them, He sowing the good seed is the Son of man:

The sower went out to sow his seed; and in his sowing, some truly fell by the way, and was trodden down, and the fowls of heaven devoured it.
