And some fell on good ground, and shooting up, produced fruit an hundred fold. So saying, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Then his disciples asked him, saying. What might this parable mean? And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to the rest in parables: that seeing they may not perceive, and hearing may not comprehend. Now this is the parable: The seed is the word of God. They by the road side, are such as hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh the word from their heart, that they should not be saved in believing. And they on the rock, are such as when they have heard, with joy embrace the word; and these have not root, who for a time believe, and in a season of trial apostasize. And that which fell among thorns, are they having heard, and going away, are choked by the cares, and wealth, and pleasures of life, and bring forth no perfect fruit. But that on the good ground are they who having heard the word, retain it in a heart excellent and good, and bring forth fruit with patience.

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.

But the sown upon the good ground, is he who heareth the word, and understandeth it; who truly beareth fruit, and produceth, one an hundred fold, and another sixty, and another thirty.

But when the grain is ready, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because harvest is come. And he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God, and under what parabolic figure shall I represent it? It is like a grain of mustard, which when it is sown in the earth, is among the least of all the seeds which are upon the earth: but when it is sown, it groweth up and becomes greater than all herbaceous plants, and produceth vast branches; so that the birds of the air may roost under the shadow of it.
