YLT
Young's Literal Translation
And he began again
to teach by the sea side:
and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered
into a
ship
, and
sat in the sea ;
and the whole
multitude was by
the sea on the land .
And again
he began to teach by the sea ,
and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he ,
having
gone
into the
boat
, sat in the sea ,
and all
the multitude was near
the sea ,
on the land ,
And he taught them many things by
parables
, and said unto
them in his doctrine,
and he taught them many things in
similes
, and he
said to
them in his teaching:
Hearken ;
Behold
, there
went
out
a
sower to sow :
`
Hearken, lo,
the
sower went
forth
to sow ;
And it came to pass, as
he
sowed
, some fell by the way side
, and the fowls of the air
came
and devoured
it up.
and it came to pass, in
the
sowing
, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven
did
come
and devour
it ;
And some
fell on
stony
ground, where it had not much earth ;
and immediately it sprang up
, because it
had
no
depth of earth :
and other
fell upon
the
rocky
ground, where it had not much earth ,
and immediately it sprang forth
, because of
not
having
depth of earth ,
But
when
the sun was
up
, it was scorched ;
and because it
had
no
root ,
it withered
away.
and
the sun having
risen
, it was scorched ,
and because of
not
having
root it did
wither;
And some
fell among
thorns, and the thorns grew
up, and choked
it, and it
yielded
no
fruit .
and other
fell toward
the
thorns, and the thorns did
come
up, and choke
it, and fruit it
gave
not;
And other fell on
good ground, and did
yield
fruit that
sprang
up and increased;
and brought
forth
, some
thirty, and some
sixty, and some
an hundred.
and other fell to
the
good ground, and was
giving
fruit ,
coming
up and increasing,
and it
bare
, one
thirty -fold
, and one
sixty, and one
an hundred. '
And he said unto
them, He that
hath
ears to hear ,
let him hear.
And he said to
them, `
He who
is
having
ears to hear --
let him hear. '
And when he was alone, they
that
were
about him with the twelve asked
of
him the parable.
And when he was alone, those
about him ,
with the twelve ,
did
ask
him of
the simile,
And he said unto
them, Unto
you it is
given to know the mystery
of the kingdom
of God :
but unto
them
that
are without, all these
things are
done in
parables:
and he said to
them, `To
you it hath
been
given to know the secret
of the reign
of God ,
but to
those
who
are without, in
similes
are
all the
things done ;
That seeing they may see ,
and not perceive ;
and hearing they may hear ,
and not understand ;
lest at
any
time
they should
be
converted
, and their
sins should
be forgiven them.
that seeing they may see and not perceive ,
and hearing they may hear and not understand ,
lest they may
turn
, and the
sins may
be forgiven them. '
And he said
unto
them, Know
ye not this parable
? and how then
will
ye know all parables
?
And he saith
to
them, `Have
ye not known
this simile
? and how shall
ye know all the
similes
?
The
sower
soweth
the word .
He
who
is
sowing
doth
sow
the word ;
And these are they by the way side,
where the word is sown ;
but
when
they have
heard
, Satan
cometh
immediately, and taketh away the word that was
sown in their hearts.
and these are they by the way where the word is sown :
and
whenever
they may
hear
, immediately cometh
the
Adversary
, and he
taketh away the word that hath
been
sown in their hearts.
And these are they likewise
which
are
sown
on stony
ground ;
who, when
they have
heard
the word, immediately receive it with
gladness;
`
And these are they ,
in
like
manner,
who
on the
rocky
ground are
sown:
who, whenever
they may
hear
the word, immediately with
joy
do
receive it ,
And have no
root in themselves, and
so
endure
but for
a
time:
afterward ,
when
affliction
or persecution ariseth
for
the word's
sake
, immediately they are offended
.
and have not
root in themselves, but are
temporary;
afterward tribulation
or persecution having
come
because
of
the word
, immediately they are stumbled
.
And these are they which
are sown among
thorns;
such
as
hear
the word,
`
And these are they who
toward
the
thorns
are sown :
these
are
they
who
are
hearing
the word,
And the cares
of this world
, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts
of
other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
and the anxieties
of this age
, and the deceitfulness of the
riches, and the desires
concerning
the
other things ,
entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
And these are they which
are
sown
on good ground ;
such
as
hear the word, and receive it
, and bring
forth
fruit, some
thirtyfold
, some
sixty, and some
an hundred.
`
And these are they who
on the
good ground have
been
sown:
who
do
hear the word, and receive, and do
bear
fruit, one
thirty-fold
, and
one
sixty, and one
an hundred. '
And he said unto
them, Is
a
candle
brought
to
be put under
a
bushel
, or under a
bed?
and
not to
be set
on a
candlestick
?
And he said to
them, `Doth
the
lamp
come
that
under
the
measure
it
may
be put, or under the
couch
--
not that
it
may
be put
on the
lamp-stand
?
For there is nothing
hid ,
which
shall
not be manifested ;
neither
was any
thing
kept secret,
but that it should
come abroad
.
for there is not
anything
hid that
may
not be manifested ,
nor
was anything
kept hid
but that it may
come to
light
.
If any man
have
ears to hear ,
let him hear.
If any hath
ears to hear --
let him hear. '
And he said unto
them, Take heed what ye hear :
with
what measure ye mete
, it shall be measured to you :
and unto
you that
hear shall more
be given.
And he said to
them, `
Take heed what ye hear ;
in
what measure ye measure
, it shall be measured to you ;
and to
you who
hear it
shall be added;
For he
that
hath
, to
him
shall be given :
and he
that
hath not, from
him
shall
be
taken
even
that which he hath.
for whoever
may
have
, there
shall be given to
him,
and whoever
hath not, also
that which he hath shall
be
taken
from
him
. '
And he said, So
is the kingdom
of God ,
as if a man should
cast seed into
the ground;
And he said, `Thus
is the reign
of God :
as if a man may
cast the
seed on
the earth,
And should
sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should
spring and grow up
, he knoweth
not how .
and may
sleep, and may
rise night and day, and the seed spring up
and grow, he hath
not known
how ;
For the earth bringeth
forth
fruit of
herself;
first the
blade, then
the
ear, after
that
the
full corn in the ear .
for of
itself
doth
the earth bear
fruit ,
first a
blade, afterwards
an
ear, afterwards
full corn in the ear ;
But
when
the fruit is
brought
forth
, immediately he putteth
in
the sickle, because the harvest is
come.
and
whenever
the fruit may
yield
itself
, immediately he doth
send
forth
the sickle, because the harvest hath
come. '
And he said, Whereunto
shall
we liken the kingdom
of God ?
or with
what comparison
shall
we compare it?
And he said, `To
what
may
we liken the reign
of God ,
or in
what simile
may
we compare it?
It
is
like
a grain of mustard seed
, which, when
it is
sown in
the earth, is less than all
the seeds that be
in
the earth :
As
a grain of mustard, which, whenever
it may
be
sown on
the earth, is less than any
of
the seeds that are
on
the earth ;
But
when
it is
sown, it groweth
up, and becometh
greater than all
herbs, and shooteth
out
great branches ;
so that the fowls of the air
may
lodge
under
the
shadow
of
it
.
and
whenever
it may
be
sown, it cometh
up, and doth
become
greater than any
of
the
herbs, and doth
make
great branches ,
so that under
its
shade
the fowls of the heaven
are
able
to
rest
. '
And with many such parables
spake
he the word unto
them
, as they were able to hear it.
And with many such similes
he was
speaking
to
them
the word, as they were able to hear ,
But
without a parable
spake
he not unto
them :
and when
they
were
alone
, he
expounded
all
things
to his disciples.
and
without a simile
he was
not speaking
to
them ,
and by
themselves
, to his disciples he
was
expounding
all
.
And the
same
day,
when
the
even
was
come,
he saith unto
them, Let
us
pass over unto
the other side .
And he saith to
them on
that
day
, evening
having
come,
`We
may
pass over to
the other side ;'
And when
they
had
sent
away the multitude, they took
him even
as he was in the ship.
And there
were
also with him other
little
ships
.
and having
let
away the multitude, they take
him up
as he was in the boat,
and other
little
boats
also were
with him.
And there arose
a great storm of wind, and the waves beat
into
the ship
, so that it was
now full.
And there cometh
a great storm of wind, and the waves were
beating
on
the boat
, so that it is
now being
filled,
And he was in
the
hinder
part
of
the ship
, asleep
on
a
pillow :
and they awake
him, and say unto
him, Master
, carest
thou not that we perish?
and he himself
was upon
the stern
, upon
the
pillow sleeping,
and they wake
him up
, and say to
him, `Teacher
, art
thou not caring
that we perish? '
And he
arose
, and
rebuked the wind, and said unto
the sea, Peace, be still.
And the wind ceased
, and there was a great calm .
And having
waked
up
, he
rebuked the wind, and said to
the sea, `
Peace, be stilled;'
and the wind did
lull
, and there was a great calm :
And he said unto
them, Why are ye so fearful? how is
it
that
ye
have no
faith?
and he said to
them, `
Why are ye so fearful? how have ye
not
faith? '
And they feared exceedingly
, and said one to another, What
manner
of
man
is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
and they feared a
great
fear
, and said one to another, `Who,
then,
is this, that even the wind and the sea do
obey him? '
