King James Version
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 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 he taught them many things in
similes
, and he
said to
them in his teaching:
And he taught them many things by
parables
, and said unto
them in his doctrine,
`
Hearken ,
lo
, the
sower
went forth
to sow ;
Hearken ;
Behold
, there
went out
a
sower
to sow :
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 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 other
fell upon
the
rocky
ground, where it had not much earth ,
and immediately it sprang forth
, because of
not
having
depth of earth ,
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
the sun having
risen
, it was scorched ,
and because of
not
having
root it did
wither;
But
when
the sun was
up
, it was scorched ;
and because it
had
no
root ,
it withered
away.
and other
fell toward
the
thorns, and the thorns did
come
up, and choke
it, and fruit
it gave
not;
And some
fell among
thorns, and the thorns grew
up, and choked
it, and it yielded
no
fruit.
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 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 he said to
them, `
He who
is
having
ears to hear --
let him hear. '
And he said unto
them, He that
hath
ears to hear ,
let him hear.
And when he was alone, those
about him ,
with the twelve ,
did
ask
him
of the simile,
And when he was alone, they
that
were
about him with the twelve asked
of him
the parable.
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 ;
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:
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. '
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.
And he saith
to
them, `Have
ye not known
this simile
? and how shall
ye know all the
similes
?
And he said
unto
them, Know
ye not this parable
? and how then
will
ye know all parables
?
He
who
is
sowing
doth
sow
the word ;
The sower
soweth
the
word .
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 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 ,
in
like
manner,
who
on
the
rocky
ground
are sown :
who, whenever
they may
hear
the word, immediately with
joy
do
receive it ,
And these are they likewise
which
are sown on
stony
ground;
who, when
they have
heard
the word, immediately receive it with
gladness;
and have not
root in themselves, but are
temporary;
afterward tribulation
or persecution having
come
because
of
the word
, immediately they are stumbled
.
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 these are they who
toward
the
thorns
are sown :
these
are
they
who
are
hearing
the word,
And these are they which
are sown among
thorns;
such
as
hear
the word,
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 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 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 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 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
?
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
?
for there is not
anything
hid that
may
not be manifested ,
nor
was anything
kept hid
but that it may
come to
light
.
For there is nothing
hid ,
which
shall
not be manifested ;
neither
was any
thing
kept secret,
but that it should
come abroad
.
If any hath
ears to hear --
let him hear. '
If any man
have
ears to hear ,
let him hear.
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;
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.
for whoever
may
have
, there
shall be given to
him,
and whoever
hath not, also
that which he hath shall
be
taken
from
him
. '
For he
that
hath
, to
him
shall be given :
and he
that
hath not, from
him
shall
be
taken
even
that which he hath.
And he said, `Thus
is the reign
of God :
as if a man may
cast the
seed on
the earth,
And he said, So
is the kingdom
of God ,
as if a man should
cast seed into
the ground;
and may
sleep, and may
rise night and day, and the seed spring up
and grow, he hath
not known
how ;
And should
sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should
spring and grow up
, he knoweth
not how .
for of
itself
doth
the earth bear
fruit ,
first a
blade, afterwards
an
ear, afterwards
full corn in the ear ;
For the earth bringeth
forth
fruit of
herself;
first the
blade, then
the
ear, after
that
the
full corn in the ear .
and
whenever
the fruit may
yield
itself
, immediately he doth
send
forth
the sickle, because the harvest hath
come. '
But
when
the fruit is
brought
forth
, immediately he putteth
in
the sickle, because the harvest is
come.
And he said, `To
what
may
we liken the reign
of God ,
or in
what simile
may
we compare it?
And he said, Whereunto
shall
we liken the kingdom
of God ?
or with
what comparison
shall
we compare it?
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 ;
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 :
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
. '
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 with many such similes
he was
speaking
to
them
the word, as they were able to hear ,
And with many such parables
spake
he the word unto
them
, as they were able to hear it.
and
without a simile
he was
not speaking
to
them ,
and by
themselves
, to his disciples he
was
expounding
all
.
But
without a parable
spake
he not unto
them :
and when
they
were
alone
, he
expounded
all
things
to his disciples.
And he
saith
to
them
on
that
day, evening
having
come, `We
may
pass over to
the other side ;'
And the
same
day, when
the
even
was
come, he
saith
unto
them,
Let
us
pass over unto
the other side .
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 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 there cometh
a great storm of wind, and the waves were
beating
on
the boat
, so that it is
now being
filled,
And there arose
a great storm of wind, and the waves beat
into
the ship
, so that it was
now full.
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 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 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 arose,
and
rebuked the wind, and said unto
the sea, Peace, be still.
And the wind ceased
, and there was a great calm .
and he said to
them, `
Why are ye so fearful? how have
ye not
faith? '
And he said unto
them, Why are ye so fearful? how is
it
that
ye have
no
faith?
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? '
And they feared exceedingly
, and said one to another, What
manner
of
man
is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
