Sower » Parable of the
And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying; Behold, a sower went out to sow; and as he sowed, some fell by the way, and the birds came and devoured it. And some fell on rocky places, where it had not much earth, and it came up immediately, because it had no depth of earth; read more.
and when the sun arose it was scorched, and because it had no root it was dried up. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked it. But some fell on good ground, and bore fruit; some a hundred, some sixty, and some thirty-fold.

Hear! behold a sower went out to sow; and in sowing, some fell on the way, and the birds came and devoured it. And some fell on a rocky place, where it had not much earth, and it came up immediately, because it had no depth of earth; read more.
and when the sun rose, it was scorched, and because it had no root it was dried up. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns came up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. And some fell on good ground, and produced fruit, growing up and increasing, and bore one thirty, one sixty, and one a hundred. And he said, He that has ears, let him hear. And when he was alone, those about him, with the twelve, asked him the parable. And he said to them, To you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God, but to those without all things are in parables; that seeing they may see, and not perceive, and hearing they may hear, and not understand, lest at any time they should turn, and be forgiven. And he said to them, Do you not know this parable? How then will you know all parables? The sower sows the word. And these are those where the word is sown by the way; and when they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word which was sown upon them. And these in like manner are those sown on the rocky places; when they hear the word, they immediately receive it with joy, and have no root in themselves, but are temporary [disciples]. Then, when affliction or persecution occurs on account of the word, they are immediately offended. And those sown among thorns are different. They are those who hear the word, and the cares of life, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires of other things coming in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. And these are those sown in good ground, who hear the word, and receive it, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

A sower went out to sow his seed; and in his sowing, some fell by the way, and was trodden down, and the birds of heaven devoured it; and some fell on the rock, and springing up it was dried up, because it had no moisture; and some fell in the midst of thorns, and the thorns springing up choked it; read more.
