Verily! Verily, I say unto you: Except, the kernel of wheat, shall fall into the ground, and die, it, alone, abideth; but, if it die, much fruit, it beareth.

And he was saying - Thus, is the kingdom of God: As a man may cast seed upon the earth, and be sleeping and rising, night and day, - and the seed be sprouting, and lengthening itself, - how, he, knoweth not: of itself, the earth beareth fruit, - first, a blade, afterwards, an ear, after that, full corn in the ear;read more.
but, as soon as the fruit yieldeth itself up, straightway, he sendeth forth the sickle, because standing by is the harvest. -

On that day, Jesus, going out of the house, was sitting near the sea: and there were gathered unto him, large multitudes, so that, he, into a boat, entered, and was sitting, and, all the multitude, on the beach was standing. And he spake unto them many things, in parables, saying: Lo! the sower went forth to sow, -read more.
and, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell by the pathway, and, the birds, came, and devoured it; And, some, fell on the rocky places, where it had not much earth, - and, straightway, it sprang up, because if had no depth of earth; and, the sun arising, it was scorched, and, because it had no root, it withered away; And, some, fell upon the thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it; But, some, fell upon the good ground, and did yield fruit, - this, indeed a hundred fold, and, that, sixty, and, the other, thirty. He that hath ears, let him hear.

Hearken! Lo! the sower went forth to sow; And it came to pass, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell by the pathway, and the birds came, and devoured it; And, some, fell on the rocky places, evenwhere it had not much earth, - and, straightway, it sprang forth, by reason of its not having depth of earth;read more.
and, when the sun arose, it was scorched, - and, by reason of its not having root, it was dried up; And, some, fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked it, and, fruit, it yielded not; And, other, fell into the good ground, and was yielding fruit, coming up and growing, - and was bearing, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold,

Hear, ye, then, the parable of him that sowed: - When anyone heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, the wicked one cometh, and catcheth up that which hath been sown in his heart, - this, is he, by the pathway, sown. And, he on the rocky places sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word, and, straightway, with joy, receiveth it;read more.
yet hath he no root in himself, but is, only for a season, - and, there arising, tribulation or persecution because of the word, straightway, he findeth cause of stumbling. And, he among the thorns sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word, - and, the anxiety of the age and the deceit of riches, choke up the word, and, unfruitful, it becometh. But, he on the good ground sown, the same, is he who doth hear and understand the word, who, indeed, beareth fruit and produceth, - this, a hundred, and, that, sixty, and, the other, thirty.

The sower, soweth the word; And these are they beside the pathway where the word is sown, - and, as soon as they hear, straightway, cometh Satan, and snatcheth away the word which hath been sown into them; And these are likewise they upon the rocky places sown, - who, as soon as they hear the word, straightway, with joy receive it,read more.
and have no root in themselves, but, only for a season are, - afterwards, when there ariseth tribulation or persecution by reason of the word, straightway, they find cause of stumbling; And others are they who among thorns are sown, - these are they who hear the word, and, the anxieties of the age, and the deceit of wealth, and the covetings about the remaining things, entering in, choke up the word, and, unfruitful, it becometh; And those yonder are they who on the good ground are sown, - who, indeed, hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit - thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.

Another parable, put he before them, saying - The kingdom of the heavens hath become like a man sowing good seed in his field; and, while men were sleeping, his enemy came, and sowed over darnel, in among the wheat, - and away he went. And, when the blade shot up, and brought forth, fruit, then, appeared, the darnel also.read more.
And the servants of the householder, coming near, said to him, - Sir! was it not, good seed, thou didst sow in thy field? Whence then hath it, darnel? And he said unto them - An enemy, hath, done this. And they say, unto him - Wilt thou, then, that we go and collect it? And, he, saith - Nay! lest, at any time, while collecting the darnel, ye uproot, along with it, the wheat: Suffer both to grow together until the harvest, and at, harvest time, I will say unto the reapers, - Collect ye first, the darnel, and bind it into bundles, with a view to the burning it up; but, the wheat, be gathering it into my barn.

And one from amongst the multitude said unto him - Teacher! bid my brother divide with me the inheritance. But, he, said unto him - Man! who hath appointed me a judge or divider over you? And he said unto them - Mind and be guarding yourselves from all covetousness; for not, in one's abundance, doth his life spring out of his possessions.read more.
And he spake a parable unto them, saying - A certain rich man's estate, bare well. And he began to deliberate within himself, saying - What shall I do? because I have not where I can gather my fruits. And he said - This, will I do, - I will pull down my barns, and, greater ones, build, and gather, there, all my wheat and good things; and will say to my soul - Soul! thou hast many good things lying by for many years: be taking thy rest, eat, drink,be making merry! But God said unto him - Simple one! on this very night, they are asking, thy soul, from thee; The things, then, which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be? So, is he that is laying up treasure for himself, and is not rich, towards God.

And he went on to say, unto his disciples also, - There was, a certain rich man, who had a steward, and, the same, was accused to him as squandering his goods. And, accosting him, he said unto him - What is this I hear of thee? Render the account of thy stewardship, for thou canst no longer be steward. And the steward said within himself - What shall I do, because my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? Dig, I cannot: to beg, I am ashamed.read more.
I know what I will do, that, when I am removed out of the stewardship, they may welcome me into their own houses. And, calling unto him each one of the debtors of his own lord, he was saying unto the first, - How much owest thou my lord? And, he, said - A hundred baths of oil. And, he, said unto him - Kindly take thine accounts, and, sitting down, make haste and write - Fifty! After that, unto another, he said - And how much owest, thou? And, he, said - A hundred homers of wheat. He saith unto him - Kindly take thine accounts, and write - Eighty! And the lord praised the unrighteous steward, in that with forethought he acted: - Because, the sons of this age, have more forethought than the sons of light, respecting their own generation. And, I, unto you, say - For yourselves, make ye friends, with the unjust Riches, in order that, as soon as it shall fail, they may welcome you into the age-abiding tents.

There shall be two women grinding together, - the one, shall be taken near, and, the other, left behind.
