And again, He began to teach beside the sea. And are gathered together to Him a crowd greatest, so that He into a boat having climbed, sitting in the sea, and all the crowd close to the sea on the land was.

And He was teaching them in parables many things, and He was saying to them in the teaching of Him,

do listen Behold, went out the [one] sowing to sow.

And it came to pass while sowing, some fell along the road, and came the birds and devoured it.

And other fell upon the rocky place, where not it had soil much, and immediately it sprang up, because of the not having depth of soil.

And after rose the sun, it was scorched, and because of not having root, it withered away.

And other fell among the thorns, and grew up the thorns, and choked it, and fruit no it yielded.

And others fell into the soil good, and was yielding fruit, growing up and increasing, and was bearing one thirtyfold, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

And He was saying, [He] who has ears to hear, he should hear.

And when He was with alone, they were asking Him those around Him with the Twelve about the parables.

And He was saying to them, To you the mystery has been given of the kingdom of God. To those however who are outside, in parables everything is done,

so that, Seeing, they may see and not they may perceive; and hearing, they may hear and not may understand; otherwise they may turn, and may be forgiven to them.’

And He says to them, Not understand you parable this? And how all the parables will you understand?

The [one] sowing, the word sows.

These now are they along the road, where is sown the word, and when they may hear, immediately comes Satan and takes away the word sown in them.

And these are those upon the rocky places sown, who, when they may hear the word, immediately with joy receive it,

and not they have root in themselves, but temporary are; then when was happening tribulation or persecution on account of the word, immediately they fall away.

And another are those among the thorns sown. These are those, the word hearing,

and the cares of the age and the deceit of the riches, and of the other things desires entering in, choke the word, and unfruitful it becomes.

And those are those upon the soil good having been sown; such as hear the word and receive [it], and bring forth fruit, one thirtyfold, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

And He was saying to them not any is brought in the lamp so that under the basket it may be put, or under the bed? [Is it] not that upon the lampstand it may be put?

Nothing for there is hidden, only unless that it shall be made manifest, nor has taken place a secret thing, but that it shall come to light.

If anyone has ears to hear, he should hear.

And He was saying to them, do take heed what you hear. With what measure you measure it will be measured to you, and more will be added to you

Who[ever] for has, it will be given to him; and he who not has, even what he has will be taken away from him.
