Sower » Parable of the
And he spake unto them many things in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went out to sow: and as he was sowing, some seeds fell indeed by the road-side; and the birds came and ate them up: and other seed fell on a rocky soil, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: read more.
and when the sun arose, it was scorched up; and because it had no root, it withered away. And other seeds fell among the thorns; and the thorns sprang up and choked them: but others fell on good ground, and produced fruit, some an hundred, some sixty, and some thirty.

Hear me! Behold, a sower went out to sow; and it came to pass as he sowed, some fell by the road side, and the birds of the air came and ate it up. And some fell on a rocky soil, where it had not much mold, and immediately it sprung up, because it had no depth of earth: read more.
and when the sun arose it was scorched up; and because it had not root, it withered away. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it, and it produced no fruit. And some fell on good ground, and produced fruit, growing up, and increasing, and yielded one part thirty fold, and another sixty, and another an hundred. And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. But when they were alone, those who were about him with the twelve, asked him the meaning of the parable. And he said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are without, all things are in parables: That seeing they may see, yet not perceive; and hearing may hear, yet not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them. And he saith to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all parables? The sower soweth the word. Now these are they by the road side; where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan cometh, and taketh away the word sown on their hearts: and these in like manner are they who were sown on the rocky soil; who when they have heard the word, instantly with joy receive it; and have no root in themselves, but are temporary [professors]: afterwards, when tribulation cometh or persecution for the word's sake, immediately they are offended. And those are the sown among the thorns; such as are hearers of the word; but the anxious cares of this world, and the seducing nature of wealth, and inordinate desires after other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. And these are they who are sown on the good ground, such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty fold, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell by the road side, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it up.
