The
same
day went
Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea
side
.
On
that
day Jesus went
out of the house, and sat by the seaside
.
And
great multitudes were
gathered together
unto
him, so that he went
into a ship
, and sat ;
and the whole
multitude stood on the shore
.
Great multitudes gathered to
him, so that he entered
into a boat
, and sat ,
and all
the multitude stood on the beach
.
And
he spake
many things unto
them
in parables, saying, Behold, a sower
went forth
to sow ;
He spoke
to
them
many things in parables, saying, "
Behold, a farmer
went out
to sow .
And
when
he sowed, some seeds fell by the way
side
, and the fowls
came and devoured them up:
As
he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside
, and the birds
came and devoured them .
Some
fell upon
stony
places
, where they had
not
much earth:
and forthwith
they sprung
up, because they had no deepness
of earth :
Others
fell on
rocky
ground
, where they didn't
have
much soil,
and immediately
they sprang
up, because they had no depth
of earth .
And
when the sun was
up
, they were scorched ;
and
because they had no root, they withered away.
When the sun had
risen
, they were scorched .
Because they had no root, they withered away.
And
some
fell among thorns ;
and
the thorns sprung
up ,
and choked them:
Others
fell among thorns .
The thorns grew
up and choked them:
But
other
fell into
good ground
, and brought
forth
fruit ,
some an
hundredfold
, some sixtyfold
, some thirtyfold
.

others
fell on
good soil
, and yielded
fruit :
some one
hundred
times
as
much
, some sixty
, and
some thirty
.
Who hath
ears to hear, let him hear.
He
who has
ears to hear, let him hear. "
And
the disciples came, and said unto
him, Why speakest
thou
unto
them in parables?
The disciples came, and said to
him, "
Why do
you
speak
to
them in parables? "
He answered and
said
unto
them, Because
it is given unto
you
to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to
them
it is not given.
He answered them, "To
you
it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to
them
.
For whosoever
hath
, to him shall
be given, and he shall
have more
abundance :
but whosoever
hath
not
, from him shall
be taken away even that he hath
.
For whoever
has
, to him will
be given, and he will
have abundance ,
but whoever
doesn't
have
, from him will
be taken away even that which
he has
.
Therefore speak
I to them in parables :
because they
seeing see not;
and hearing they hear not
, neither do they understand.
Therefore I speak
to them in parables ,
because seeing they
don't
see ,
and hearing ,
they don't
hear, neither do they understand.
And
in them is
fulfilled
the prophecy of Esaias
, which saith
, By hearing ye
shall
hear, and shall
not
understand; and
seeing ye
shall
see, and shall
not
perceive:
In them the prophecy of Isaiah
is
fulfilled
, which says
, '
By hearing you
will
hear, And will
in
no
way
understand; Seeing you
will
see, And will
in
no
way
perceive:
For this people's heart is
waxed
gross
, and
their ears are dull of hearing, and
their
eyes
they have closed; lest
at
any
time
they should
see
with their eyes and
hear with their ears, and
should
understand with their heart, and should be
converted,
and I should
heal them.
For this people's heart has
grown
callous
, Their ears are dull of hearing, They have closed their
eyes
; Or
else
perhaps
they might
perceive
with their eyes ,
Hear with their ears, Understand with their heart, And should turn
again;
And I would
heal them. '
But blessed are your eyes, for they see :
and your ears, for they hear.
"
But blessed are your eyes, for they see ;
and your ears, for they hear.
For verily
I say
unto
you ,
That many prophets and righteous men have
desired to see those
things which ye
see, and have
not
seen
them; and to hear those
things which ye
hear, and have
not
heard
them.
For most
assuredly
I tell
you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the
things which you
see, and didn't
see
them; and to hear the
things which you
hear, and didn't
hear
them.
Hear ye
therefore
the parable of the sower
.
"
Hear ,
then,
the parable of the farmer
.
When any
one
heareth
the word of the kingdom, and understandeth
it not
, then
cometh
the wicked
one, and catcheth
away that which was
sown in his heart. This is he
which
received
seed
by the way
side
.
When anyone
hears
the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't
understand
it, the evil
one comes
, and snatches
away that which has
been
sown in his heart. This is what
was
sown
by the roadside
.
But
he
that
received
the seed
into
stony
places, the
same
is he that
heareth
the word, and anon
with joy receiveth
it;
What
was
sown
on
the rocky
places, this
is he who
hears
the word, and immediately
with joy receives
it;
Yet hath
he not
root in himself, but dureth
for a while :
for
when tribulation
or persecution ariseth
because of the word, by
and
by
he is
offended
.
yet he has
no
root in himself, but endures
for a while .
When oppression
or persecution arises
because of the word, immediately
he stumbles
.
He
also
that
received
seed
among the thorns is he that
heareth
the word ;
and
the care
of this world,
and the deceitfulness of riches ,
choke the word, and he becometh
unfruitful.
What
was
sown
among the thorns ,
this
is he who
hears
the word ,
but
the cares
of this age
and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes
unfruitful.
But
he
that
received
seed
into
the good ground is he that
heareth
the word, and understandeth
it ;
which
also
beareth
fruit, and bringeth
forth, some an
hundredfold
, some sixty, some thirty.
What
was
sown
on
the good ground ,
this
is he who
hears
the word, and understands
it ,
who
most
assuredly
bears
fruit, and brings
forth, some one
hundred
times
as
much
, some sixty, and
some thirty. "
Another parable put
he
forth
unto
them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened
unto
a man which
sowed good seed in his field :
He
set
another parable before
them, saying, "
The Kingdom of Heaven is like
a man who
sowed good seed in his field ,
But while men
slept, his enemy came and sowed tares
among the wheat, and went his
way
.
but while people
slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel
also
among the wheat, and went away
.
But when the blade was
sprung
up ,
and brought forth fruit, then appeared
the tares
also.
But when the blade sprang
up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel
appeared
also.
So
the servants of the householder came and said unto
him, Sir, didst
not
thou
sow good seed in thy
field? from whence
then
hath
it
tares
?
The servants of the householder came and said to
him, '
Sir, didn't
you
sow good seed in your
field? Where
did
this
darnel
come
from? '
He said unto
them, An enemy hath
done this. The servants said
unto
him, Wilt
thou
then
that
we
go and gather them up?
"
He said to
them, '
An enemy has
done this. '
"
The servants asked
him, 'Do
you
want
us
to
go and gather them up? '
But he said, Nay;
lest while ye
gather up the tares
, ye
root up also
the wheat with them.
"
But he said, 'No,
lest perhaps
while you
gather up the darnel
, you
root up the wheat with them.
Let both grow together until the harvest :
and in the time
of
harvest I will say
to
the reapers, Gather
ye
together
first the tares
, and bind them in bundles to burn them :
but gather the wheat into my barn.
Let both grow together until the harvest ,
and in the harvest time
I will tell
the reapers, "
First ,
gather
up
the darnel
, and bind them in bundles to burn them ;
but gather the wheat into my barn. "'"
Another parable put
he
forth
unto
them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to
a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field :
He
set
another parable before
them, saying, "
The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field ;
Which indeed is the
least
of
all seeds :
but when it is grown, it is the greatest
among
herbs, and becometh
a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the
branches thereof
.
which indeed is smaller
than
all seeds .
But when it is grown, it is greater
than
the herbs, and becomes
a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its
branches. "
Another parable spake
he
unto
them ;
The kingdom of heaven is like unto
leaven
, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till
the
whole
was leavened.
He
spoke
another parable to
them .
"
The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast
, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until
it
was all
leavened. "
All these things spake
Jesus
unto
the
multitude
in parables; and without a parable spake
he not
unto
them :
Jesus
spoke
all these things in parables to
the
multitudes
; and without a parable ,
he didn't
speak
to
them ,
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by
the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which
have
been
kept
secret
from the foundation of the world.
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through
the prophet, saying, "
I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden
from the foundation of the world. "
Then Jesus sent the multitude
away, and went into the house :
and
his disciples came unto
him, saying, Declare
unto
us the parable of the tares
of the field.
Then Jesus sent the multitudes
away, and went into the house .
His disciples came to
him, saying, "Explain
to
us the parable of the darnel
of the field. "
He answered and
said
unto
them, He that
soweth
the good seed is the Son of man ;
He answered them, "
He who
sows
the good seed is the Son of Man ,
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but
the tares
are the children of the wicked
one ;
the field is the world; and
the good seed ,
these
are the children of the Kingdom; and
the darnel
are the children of the evil
one .
The enemy that
sowed them is the devil ;
the harvest is the end of the world;
and the reapers are the
angels.
The enemy who
sowed them is the devil .
The harvest is the end of the age,
and the reapers are angels.
As therefore the tares
are
gathered and burned in
the
fire; so shall
it be in
the end of this world
.
As therefore the darnel
is
gathered up
and burned with
fire; so will
it be at
the end of this age
.
The Son of man shall
send forth
his angels, and they shall
gather out of his kingdom all things that offend
, and them
which
do iniquity ;
The Son of Man will
send out
his angels, and they will
gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause
stumbling
, and those
who
do iniquity ,
And shall
cast them into a
furnace of fire :
there shall
be wailing
and gnashing of teeth.
and will
cast them into the
furnace of fire .
There will
be weeping
and the
gnashing of teeth.
Then shall
the righteous shine forth as
the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath
ears to hear, let him hear.
Then the righteous will
shine forth like
the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He
who has
ears to hear, let him hear.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto
treasure hid
in a
field;
the which when
a man hath
found, he
hideth,
and for
joy thereof
goeth
and selleth
all that he hath
, and buyeth
that field.
"
Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a
treasure hidden
in the field,
which a man found, and hid.
In
his
joy ,
he
goes
and sells
all that he has
, and buys
that field.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto
a merchant
man ,
seeking goodly
pearls :
"

is
a
merchant
seeking fine
pearls ,
Who ,
when
he
had
found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

a net
, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind :

, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some
fish
of every kind ,
Which, when it was full
, they drew to
shore,
and
sat down, and gathered the good into vessels
, but cast
the bad away.
which, when it was filled
, they drew up
on
the
beach.
They
sat down, and gathered the good into containers
, but the bad they
threw
away.
So shall
it be at
the end of the world :
the angels shall
come forth, and sever
the wicked from among the just
,
So will
it be in
the end of the world .
The angels will
come forth, and separate
the wicked from among the righteous
,
And shall
cast them into the furnace of fire :
there shall
be wailing
and gnashing of teeth.
and will
cast them into the furnace of fire .
There will
be the
weeping
and the
gnashing of teeth. "
Jesus saith
unto
them, Have ye
understood all these things? They say
unto
him, Yea
, Lord.
Jesus said
to
them, "
Have you
understood all these things? "
They answered
him, "Yes
, Lord. "
Then
said
he unto
them, Therefore every scribe which
is
instructed
unto
the kingdom of heaven is like unto
a man that
is an
householder, which
bringeth
forth
out of his treasure things
new and old.
He said
to
them, "
Therefore ,
every scribe who
has
been
made
a
disciple
in
the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who
is a
householder, who
brings
out of his treasure new and old things
. "
And

to

, James, and
Joses, and
Simon, and Judas?

this man all these things?

this man get
