And in that day Jesus, having come out of the house, sat by the sea.

And in his sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things came and swallowed them down. And others fell upon rocky places where it had not much earth, and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no depth of earth. And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and for the not having a root, it was dried up. And others fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them. And others fell upon good earth and gave fruit, some truly a hundred, and some sixty, and some thirty. He having ears to hear let him hear. And the disciples having come near, said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables? And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given. For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. For this I speak to them in parables: for seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And the prophecy of Esaias is filled up in them, saying, In hearing shall ye hear, and not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive. For the heart of this people has been thickened, and with their ears have they heard heavily, and their eyes have they closed; lest perhaps they should see with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I should heal them. But happy your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say to you, that many prophets and just desired eagerly to see what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye hear, and heard not. Therefore hear ye the parable of him sowing. Every one hearing, and not understanding, the evil one comes, and carries off that sown in his heart. This is he having sown by the way. And he having sown upon rocky places, this is he hearing the word, and quickly with joy receiving it; And has no root in himself, but is for a time; and there being pressure or expulsion for the word, straightly is he offended. And he having sown among thorns, this is he hearing the word; and the care of this time, and the deceit of riches, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. But he having sown upon good earth is he hearing the word, and understanding; who indeed bears fruit, and who makes truly a hundred, and who sixty, and who thirty.

And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down. And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth: And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and because it had no root, it was dried up. And other fell in thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit. And other fell in good earth, and gave fruit coming up and increasing; and one brought thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. And he said to them, He having ears to hear, let him hear. And when he was alone, they about him with the twelve asked him of the parable. And he said to them, To you has it been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to those without, all are in parables: That seeing they might see, and not know; and hearing they might hear, and not understand; lest they turn back, and their sins be remitted to them. And he says to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all parables? He sowing sows the word. And these are they by the way, where the word is sown; and when they hear, quickly comes Satan, and takes away the word sown in their hearts. And these are likewise they sown upon stony places; who, when they hear, quickly with joy receive it; And have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then pressure having been or expulsion for the word, quickly are they scandalized. And these are they sown in thorns; these are they hearing the word. And the cares of this time, and the deceit of riches, and eager desires about remaining things, coming in, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. And these are they sown on good earth; who hear the word, and receive, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. And he said to them, Much less the light comes that it be set under a bushel, or under a bed; that it be not set upon a candlestick. For not anything is hid, which should not be manifested; neither was concealed, but that it should come clear. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear. And he said to them, See ye how ye hear: with what measure ye measure, shall be measured to you: and to you hearing, shall be added. For whoever should have, to him shall be given: and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him.

And a great crowd being together, and coming to him in the city, he spake by a parable: 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. And other fell upon a rock; and having brought forth, was dried up, for it had no moisture. read more.
And other fell in the midst of thorns; and the thorns grew together and choked it. And other fell upon good earth; and having brought forth, made fruit, a hundredfold.

And he said, To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: and to the rest in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God. And they by the way are they hearing; then comes the devil, and takes away the word from their heart, lest having believed, they should be saved. And they upon the rock, who, when they hear, with joy receive the word; and they have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of trial fly away. And that having fallen into thorns, and they are they having heard, and with cares and riches, and pleasures of life going forth, are choked, and bring not to maturity. And that in the good earth, they are they which, in a fair and good heart, having heard, keep the word, and bring forth fruit with patience. None, having lighted a light, covers it with a vessel, or puts under a bed; but sets upon a candlestick, that they entering might see the light. For there is nothing hid, which should not be made manifest; nor concealed, which should not be made known, and come clear. See therefore how ye hear: for whoever should have, shall be given him; and whoever should not have, and what he seems to have shall be taken away from him.

Every one hearing, and not understanding, the evil one comes, and carries off that sown in his heart. This is he having sown by the way.

But he having sown upon good earth is he hearing the word, and understanding; who indeed bears fruit, and who makes truly a hundred, and who sixty, and who thirty. Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens was made like a man sowing good seed in his field: And in men's sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and went away. And when the grass sprouted up and made fruit, then appeared the tares also. And the servants of the master of the house having come, said to him, Lord, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field whence therefore has it tares? And he said to them, A man, an enemy, has done this: and his servants said to him, Wilt thou therefore we, having departed, should gather them And he said, No; lest gathering the tares, ye root up the wheat together with them. Suffer both to grow together till harvest; and in time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; and gather the wheat into my barn. Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a kernel of mustard, which a man taking, sowed in his field: Which truly is less than all seeds; but when it has grown, it is greater than vegetables, and becomes a tree, so that the flying things of heaven come and lodge in its young shoots. Another parable spake he to them; The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of wheaten flour, till the whole was leavened. All these things spake Jesus in parables to the crowds; and without a parable spake he not to them. So that that spoken by the prophet might be filled up; saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will declare things having been hid from the foundation of the world. Then Jesus having dismissed the crowds, went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field. And he having answered, said to them, He sowing the good seed is the Son of man: And the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one; And the enemy having sowed them is the devil; and the harvest is the end of time; and the reapers are the messengers. As therefore the tares are gathered together and burnt in fire; so shall it be in the end of this time. The Son of man shall send forth his messengers, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and those doing iniquity; And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the just emit a brilliant light as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He having ears to hear, let him hear. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a treasure hid in the field; which a man finding, concealed, and from his joy, he retires, and all things which he has he sells, and he purchases that field. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a wholesale merchant, seeking beautiful pearls: Who, finding one pearl of great value, having departed, he sold all things which he had, and purchased it. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a large sweep-net, cast into the sea, and having gathered of every kind: Which, when it was filled, having raised up upon the shore, and having set down, they gathered the good things into vessels, and the rotten things they cast without. So shall it be in the end of time; the messengers shall come forth, and separate the evil from the midst of the just, And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these? They say to him, Yes, Lord. And he said to them, Therefore every scribe, having been a disciple in the kingdom of the heavens, is like to a man, master of a house, who casts out from his treasure new things and old.
And in his sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things came and swallowed them down. And others fell upon rocky places where it had not much earth, and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no depth of earth. And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and for the not having a root, it was dried up. And others fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them. And others fell upon good earth and gave fruit, some truly a hundred, and some sixty, and some thirty. He having ears to hear let him hear. And the disciples having come near, said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables? And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given. For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. For this I speak to them in parables: for seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And the prophecy of Esaias is filled up in them, saying, In hearing shall ye hear, and not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive. For the heart of this people has been thickened, and with their ears have they heard heavily, and their eyes have they closed; lest perhaps they should see with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I should heal them. But happy your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say to you, that many prophets and just desired eagerly to see what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye hear, and heard not. Therefore hear ye the parable of him sowing. Every one hearing, and not understanding, the evil one comes, and carries off that sown in his heart. This is he having sown by the way. And he having sown upon rocky places, this is he hearing the word, and quickly with joy receiving it; And has no root in himself, but is for a time; and there being pressure or expulsion for the word, straightly is he offended. And he having sown among thorns, this is he hearing the word; and the care of this time, and the deceit of riches, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. But he having sown upon good earth is he hearing the word, and understanding; who indeed bears fruit, and who makes truly a hundred, and who sixty, and who thirty. Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens was made like a man sowing good seed in his field: And in men's sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and went away. And when the grass sprouted up and made fruit, then appeared the tares also. And the servants of the master of the house having come, said to him, Lord, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field whence therefore has it tares? And he said to them, A man, an enemy, has done this: and his servants said to him, Wilt thou therefore we, having departed, should gather them And he said, No; lest gathering the tares, ye root up the wheat together with them. Suffer both to grow together till harvest; and in time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; and gather the wheat into my barn. Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a kernel of mustard, which a man taking, sowed in his field: Which truly is less than all seeds; but when it has grown, it is greater than vegetables, and becomes a tree, so that the flying things of heaven come and lodge in its young shoots. Another parable spake he to them; The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of wheaten flour, till the whole was leavened. All these things spake Jesus in parables to the crowds; and without a parable spake he not to them. So that that spoken by the prophet might be filled up; saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will declare things having been hid from the foundation of the world. Then Jesus having dismissed the crowds, went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field. And he having answered, said to them, He sowing the good seed is the Son of man: And the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one; And the enemy having sowed them is the devil; and the harvest is the end of time; and the reapers are the messengers. As therefore the tares are gathered together and burnt in fire; so shall it be in the end of this time. The Son of man shall send forth his messengers, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and those doing iniquity; And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the just emit a brilliant light as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He having ears to hear, let him hear. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a treasure hid in the field; which a man finding, concealed, and from his joy, he retires, and all things which he has he sells, and he purchases that field. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a wholesale merchant, seeking beautiful pearls: Who, finding one pearl of great value, having departed, he sold all things which he had, and purchased it. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a large sweep-net, cast into the sea, and having gathered of every kind: Which, when it was filled, having raised up upon the shore, and having set down, they gathered the good things into vessels, and the rotten things they cast without. So shall it be in the end of time; the messengers shall come forth, and separate the evil from the midst of the just, And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these? They say to him, Yes, Lord. And he said to them, Therefore every scribe, having been a disciple in the kingdom of the heavens, is like to a man, master of a house, who casts out from his treasure new things and old.
And he taught them in parables many things, and said to them in his teaching, Hear ye; behold, he sowing went out to sow: And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down. read more.
And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth: And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and because it had no root, it was dried up. And other fell in thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit. And other fell in good earth, and gave fruit coming up and increasing; and one brought thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. And he said to them, He having ears to hear, let him hear. And when he was alone, they about him with the twelve asked him of the parable. And he said to them, To you has it been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to those without, all are in parables: That seeing they might see, and not know; and hearing they might hear, and not understand; lest they turn back, and their sins be remitted to them. And he says to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all parables? He sowing sows the word. And these are they by the way, where the word is sown; and when they hear, quickly comes Satan, and takes away the word sown in their hearts. And these are likewise they sown upon stony places; who, when they hear, quickly with joy receive it; And have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then pressure having been or expulsion for the word, quickly are they scandalized. And these are they sown in thorns; these are they hearing the word. And the cares of this time, and the deceit of riches, and eager desires about remaining things, coming in, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. And these are they sown on good earth; who hear the word, and receive, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. And he said to them, Much less the light comes that it be set under a bushel, or under a bed; that it be not set upon a candlestick. For not anything is hid, which should not be manifested; neither was concealed, but that it should come clear. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear. And he said to them, See ye how ye hear: with what measure ye measure, shall be measured to you: and to you hearing, shall be added. For whoever should have, to him shall be given: and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth; And he sleep, and should rise night and day, and the seed should sprout, and be raised; how, he knows not. For the earth bears fruit spontaneously; first the grass, then the ear, then the full wheat in the ear. But when the fruit should yield, quickly he sends the sickle, for the harvest is brought forward. And he said, To what should we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable should we hold it forth? As a kernel of mustard, which, when it be sown in the earth, is smaller than all seeds upon the earth: And when it be sown, it comes up and is greater than all vegetables, and makes great young shoots; so that the flying things of heaven can encamp under its shadow. And with many such parables spake he the word to them, as they were able to hear.

And with many such parables spake he the word to them, as they were able to hear.
