On
that
day Jesus
went out of the house, and sat by the seaside
.
The
same
day went Jesus
out of the house, and sat by the sea
side
.
Great multitudes gathered to
him, so that he entered
into a boat
, and sat ,
and all
the multitude stood on the beach
.
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
.
He spoke
to
them
many things in parables, saying, "
Behold, a farmer
went out
to sow .
And
he spake
many things unto
them
in parables, saying, Behold, a sower
went forth
to sow ;
As
he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside
, and the birds
came and devoured them .
And
when
he sowed, some seeds fell by the way
side
, and the fowls
came and devoured them up:
Others
fell on
rocky
ground
, where they didn't
have
much soil,
and immediately
they sprang
up, because they had no depth
of earth .
Some
fell upon
stony
places
, where they had
not
much earth:
and forthwith
they sprung
up, because they had no deepness
of earth :
When the sun had
risen
, they were scorched .
Because they had no root, they withered away.
And
when the sun was
up
, they were scorched ;
and
because they had no root, they withered away.
Others
fell among thorns .
The thorns grew
up and choked them:
And
some
fell among thorns ;
and
the thorns sprung
up ,
and choked them:
and
others
fell on
good soil
, and yielded
fruit :
some one
hundred
times
as
much
, some sixty
, and
some thirty
.
But
other
fell into
good ground
, and brought
forth
fruit ,
some an
hundredfold
, some sixtyfold
, some thirtyfold
.
He
who has
ears to hear, let him hear. "
Who hath
ears to hear, let him hear.
The disciples came, and said to
him, "
Why do
you
speak
to
them in parables? "
And
the disciples came, and said unto
him, Why speakest
thou
unto
them in parables?
He answered them, "To
you
it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to
them
.
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.
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
.
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
.
Therefore I
speak to them in parables ,
because seeing
they don't
see ,
and hearing ,
they don't
hear, neither do they understand.
Therefore speak I
to them in parables :
because they seeing
see not;
and hearing they hear not
, neither do they understand.
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:
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:
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. '
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.
"
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 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.
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.
"
Hear ,
then,
the parable of the farmer
.
Hear ye
therefore
the parable of the sower
.
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
.
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
.
What
was
sown
on
the rocky
places, this
is he who
hears
the word, and immediately
with joy receives
it;
But
he
that
received
the seed
into
stony
places, the
same
is he that
heareth
the word, and anon
with joy receiveth
it;
yet he has
no
root in himself, but endures
for a while .
When oppression
or persecution arises
because of the word, immediately
he stumbles
.
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
.
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.
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
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. "
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.
He
set
another parable before
them, saying, "
The Kingdom of Heaven is like
a man who
sowed good seed in his field ,
Another parable put
he
forth
unto
them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened
unto
a man which
sowed good seed in his field :
but while people
slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel
also
among the wheat, and went away
.
But while men
slept, his enemy came and sowed tares
among the wheat, and went his
way
.
But when the blade sprang
up and brought forth fruit, then the
darnel
appeared also.
But when the blade was
sprung
up ,
and brought forth fruit, then appeared the
tares
also.
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? '
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
?
"
He said to
them, '
An enemy has
done this. '
"
The servants asked
him, 'Do
you
want
us
to
go and gather them up? '
He said unto
them, An enemy hath
done this. The servants said
unto
him, Wilt
thou
then
that
we
go and gather them up?
"
But he said, 'No,
lest perhaps
while you
gather up the darnel
, you
root up the wheat with them.
But he said, Nay;
lest while ye
gather up the tares
, ye
root up also
the wheat with them.
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. "'"
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.
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 ;
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 :
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. "
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
.
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. "
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.
Jesus
spoke
all these things in parables to
the
multitudes
; and without a parable ,
he didn't
speak
to
them ,
All these things spake
Jesus
unto
the
multitude
in parables; and without a parable spake
he not
unto
them :
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. "
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.
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. "
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.
He answered them, "
He who
sows
the good seed is the Son of Man ,
He answered and
said
unto
them, He that
soweth
the good seed is the Son of man ;
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 field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but
the tares
are the children of the wicked
one ;
The enemy who
sowed them is the devil .
The harvest is the end of the age,
and the reapers are angels.
The enemy that
sowed them is the devil ;
the harvest is the end of the world;
and the reapers are the
angels.
As therefore the darnel
is
gathered up
and burned with
fire; so will
it be at
the end of this age
.
As therefore the tares
are
gathered and burned in
the
fire; so shall
it be in
the end of this world
.
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 ,
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 ;
and will
cast them into the
furnace of fire .
There will
be weeping
and the
gnashing of teeth.
And shall
cast them into a
furnace of fire :
there shall
be wailing
and gnashing of teeth.
Then the righteous will
shine forth like
the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He
who has
ears to hear, let him hear.
Then shall
the righteous shine forth as
the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath
ears to hear, let him hear.
"
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
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
man
who
is
a merchant seeking fine
pearls ,
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto
a merchant man,
seeking goodly
pearls :
who having
found one pearl of great price, he
went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Who ,
when
he
had
found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
"
Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet
, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some
fish
of every kind ,
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto
a net
, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind :
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.
Which, when it was full
, they drew to
shore,
and
sat down, and gathered the good into vessels
, but cast
the bad away.
So will
it be in
the end of the world .
The angels will
come forth, and separate
the wicked from among the righteous
,
So shall
it be at
the end of the world :
the angels shall
come forth, and sever
the wicked from among the just
,
and will
cast them into the furnace of fire .
There will
be the
weeping
and the
gnashing of teeth. "
And shall
cast them into the furnace of fire :
there shall
be wailing
and gnashing of teeth.
Jesus said
to
them, "
Have you
understood all these things? "
They answered
him, "Yes
, Lord. "
Jesus saith
unto
them, Have ye
understood all these things? They say
unto
him, Yea
, Lord.
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
. "
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.
It happened
that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from
there
.
And
it came
to
pass,
that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence
.
Coming
into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so
that they were astonished, and said, "Where
did
this man get
this wisdom, and these mighty works?
And
when
he
was
come
into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch
that they were astonished, and said, Whence
hath
this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
Isn't
this the carpenter's son? Isn't
his mother called Mary ,
and his brothers
, James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
Is
not
this the carpenter's son? is
not
his mother called Mary ?
and his brethren
, James, and
Joses, and
Simon, and Judas?
Aren't
all
of
his sisters with us? Where
then did
this man get
all of
these things? "
And
his sisters ,
are
they
not
all
with us? Whence
then hath
this man all these things?
They were offended by
him. But Jesus said to
them, "
A prophet is not without honor
, except
in his own country, and in his own house. "
And
they were offended in
him. But Jesus said unto
them, A prophet is not without honour
, save
in his own country, and in his own house.
He didn't
do
many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
And
he did
not
many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
