2 And great πολλοὶ polloi G4183 crowds ὄχλοι ochloi G3793 were gathered G4863 together συνήχθησαν sunēchthēsan G4863 to him , so that going on board ship G4143 himself he sat καθῆσθαι, kathēsthai G2521 down G2521 , and the whole crowd ὄχλος ochlos G3793 stood G2476 on the shore. 4 and as he sowed σπείρειν speirein G4687 , some [grains] fell G4098 along the way G3598 , and the birds πετεινὰ peteina G4071 came ἐλθόντα elthonta G2064 and devoured κατέφαγεν katephagen G2719 them ; 5 and others ἄλλα alla G243 fell G4098 upon the rocky πετρώδη petrōdē G4075 places where ὅπου hopou G3699 they had not much πολλήν, pollēn G4183 earth G1093 , and immediately εὐθέως eutheōs G2112 they sprang up out of [ the ground G1093 ] because of not having [ any ] depth βάθος bathos G899 of earth G1093 , 6 but when the sun ἡλίου hēliou G2246 rose they were burned up, and because of not having [ any ] root ῥίζαν rhizan G4491 were dried up; 7 and others ἄλλα alla G243 fell G4098 upon the thorns ἀκάνθας, akanthas G173 , and the thorns ἄκανθαι akanthai G173 grew up and choked them ; 9 He that has ears ὦτα ōta G3775 , let him hear ἀκουέτω.¶ akouetō G191 . 11 And he answering ἀποκριθεὶς apokritheis G611 said G3004 to them , Because to you it is given G1325 to know γνῶναι gnōnai G1097 the mysteries μυστήρια mustēria G3466 of the kingdom βασιλείας basileias G932 of the heavens οὐρανῶν, ouranōn G3772 , but to them it is not given G1325 ; 12 for whoever has , to him shall be given G1325 , and he shall be caused to be in abundance G4052 ; but he who has not , even G2532 what he has shall be taken G142 away ἀρθήσεται arthēsetai G142 from him . 13 For this cause I speak λαλῶ lalō G2980 to them in parables G3850 , because seeing βλέποντες blepontes G991 they do not see βλέπουσιν blepousin G991 , and hearing ἀκούοντες akouontes G191 they do not hear ἀκούουσιν akouousin G191 nor understand συνίουσιν. suniousin G4920 ; 14 and in them is filled up the prophecy προφητεία prophēteia G4394 of Esaias, which says λέγουσα· legousa G3004 , Hearing G191 ye shall hear ἀκούσετε akousete G191 and shall not understand συνῆτε, sunēte G4920 , and beholding ye shall behold and not see G3708 ; 15 for the heart καρδία kardia G2588 of this people λαοῦ laou G2992 has grown fat, and they have heard G191 heavily with their ears ὠσὶν ōsin G3775 , and they have closed their eyes ὀφθαλμοὺς ophthalmous G3788 as asleep, lest they should see G3708 with the eyes ὀφθαλμοῖς ophthalmois G3788 , and hear G191 with the ears ὠσὶν ōsin G3775 , and understand συνῶσιν sunōsin G4920 with the heart καρδίᾳ kardia G2588 , and should be converted, and I should heal ἰάσομαι iasomai G2390 them . 16 But blessed are your eyes ὀφθαλμοὶ ophthalmoi G3788 because they see βλέπουσιν blepousin G991 , and your ears ὦτα ōta G3775 because they hear ἀκούουσιν.¶ akouousin G191 ; 18 Ye, therefore οὖν oun G3767 , hear ἀκούσατε akousate G191 the parable παραβολὴν parabolēn G3850 of the sower . 22 And he that is G1510 sown σπαρείς, spareis G4687 among the thorns ἀκάνθας akanthas G173 — this is G1510 he who hears ἀκούων, akouōn G191 the word λόγον logon G3056 , and the anxious care of this life, and the deceit ἀπάτη apatē G539 of riches πλούτου ploutou G4149 choke συμπνίγει sumpnigei G4846 the word λόγον, logon G3056 , and he becomes G1096 unfruitful ἄκαρπος akarpos G175 . 24 Another parable παραβολὴν parabolēn G3850 set G3908 he before them , saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , The kingdom βασιλεία basileia G932 of the heavens οὐρανῶν ouranōn G3772 has become ὡμοιώθη hōmoiōthē G3666 like a man ἀνθρώπῳ anthrōpō G444 sowing G4687 good καλὸν kalon G2570 seed σπέρμα sperma G4690 in his field ἀγρῷ agrō G68 ; 27 And the bondmen of the householder came προσελθόντες proselthontes G4334 up and said G3004 to him , Sir κύριε, kurie G2962 , hast thou not sown G4687 good καλὸν kalon G2570 seed σπέρμα sperma G4690 in thy field ἀγρῷ; agrō G68 ? whence then οὖν oun G3767 has it darnel? 28 And he said λέγουσιν legousin G3004 to them , A man ἄνθρωπος anthrōpos G444 [ that is ] an enemy ἐχθρὸς echthros G2190 has done this . And the bondmen said G3004 to him , Wilt thou then οὖν oun G3767 that we should go G565 and gather συλλέξωμεν sullexōmen G4816 it [up]? 29 But he said φησιν· phēsin G5346 , No ; lest [ in ] gathering G4816 the darnel ye should root up the wheat σῖτον. siton G4621 with it . 30 Suffer both to grow together συναγάγετε sunagagete G4863 unto the harvest θερισμοῦ· therismou G2326 , and in time καιρῷ kairō G2540 of the harvest θερισμοῦ therismou G2326 I will say G3004 to the harvestmen, Gather G4863 first πρῶτον prōton G4413 the darnel, and bind δήσατε dēsate G1210 it into bundles to burn κατακαῦσαι katakausai G2618 it ; but the wheat σῖτον siton G4621 bring together G4863 into my granary. 31 Another parable παραβολὴν parabolēn G3850 set G3908 he before them , saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , The kingdom βασιλεία basileia G932 of the heavens οὐρανῶν ouranōn G3772 is G1510 like a grain κόκκῳ kokkō G2848 of mustard σινάπεως, sinapeōs G4615 [ seed ] which a man ἄνθρωπος anthrōpos G444 took G2983 and sowed ἔσπειρεν espeiren G4687 in his field ἀγρῷ agrō G68 ; 35 so ὅπως hopōs G3704 that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet προφήτου prophētou G4396 , saying λέγοντος· legontos G3004 , I will open ἀνοίξω anoixō G455 my mouth στόμα stoma G4750 in parables G3850 ; I will utter things hidden G2928 from [ the ] world's foundation καταβολῆς katabolēs G2602 . 36 Then , having dismissed the crowds ὄχλους ochlous G3793 , he went into the house οἰκίαν oikian G3614 ; and his disciples G3101 came G2064 to him , saying λέγοντες· legontes G3004 , Expound to us the parable παραβολὴν parabolēn G3850 of the darnel of the field ἀγροῦ.¶ agrou G68 . 39 and the enemy ἐχθρὸς echthros G2190 who has sowed G4687 it is G1510 the devil διάβολος· diabolos G1228 ; and the harvest θερισμὸς therismos G2326 is G1510 [ the ] completion of [ the ] age αἰῶνός aiōnos G165 , and the harvestmen are G1510 angels ἄγγελοί angeloi G32 . 41 The Son υἱὸς huios G5207 of man ἀνθρώπου anthrōpou G444 shall send ἀποστελεῖ apostelei G649 his angels ἀγγέλους angelous G32 , and they shall gather συλλέξουσιν sullexousin G4816 out of his kingdom βασιλείας basileias G932 all offences, and those that practise lawlessness ἀνομίαν anomian G458 ; 42 and they shall cast βαλοῦσιν balousin G906 them into the furnace κάμινον kaminon G2575 of fire πυρός· puros G4442 ; there shall be ἔσται estai G1510 the weeping κλαυθμὸς klauthmos G2805 and the gnashing βρυγμὸς brugmos G1030 of teeth ὀδόντων. odontōn G3599 . 43 Then τότε tote G5119 the righteous δίκαιοι dikaioi G1342 shall shine forth as the sun ἥλιος hēlios G2246 in the kingdom βασιλείᾳ basileia G932 of their Father πατρὸς patros G3962 . He that has ears ὦτα ōta G3775 , let him hear ἀκουέτω.¶ akouetō G191 . 46 and having found G2147 one ἕνα hena G1520 pearl μαργαρίτην, margaritēn G3135 of great value , he went G565 and sold all whatever he had and bought G59 it . 47 Again Πάλιν Palin G3825 , the kingdom βασιλεία basileia G932 of the heavens οὐρανῶν ouranōn G3772 is G1510 like a seine which has been G1510 cast βληθείσῃ blētheisē G906 into the sea θάλασσαν thalassan G2281 , and which has gathered G4863 together συναγαγούσῃ, sunagagousē G4863 of every kind , 48 which , when ὅτε hote G3753 it has been filled ἐπληρώθη eplērōthē G4137 , having drawn up on the shore and sat G2523 down καθίσαντες kathisantes G2523 , they gathered G4816 the good καλὰ kala G2570 into vessels and cast ἔβαλον. ebalon G906 the worthless out . 49 Thus οὕτως houtōs G3779 shall it be ἔσται estai G1510 in the completion of the age αἰῶνος· aiōnos G165 : the angels ἄγγελοι angeloi G32 shall go ἐξελεύσονται exeleusontai G1831 forth G1831 and sever the wicked G4190 from the midst μέσου mesou G3319 of the just G1342 , 50 and shall cast βαλοῦσιν balousin G906 them into the furnace κάμινον kaminon G2575 of fire πυρός· puros G4442 ; there shall be ἔσται estai G1510 the weeping κλαυθμὸς klauthmos G2805 and the gnashing βρυγμὸς brugmos G1030 of teeth ὀδόντων. odontōn G3599 . 51 Jesus says λέγουσιν legousin G3004 to them , Have ye understood συνήκατε sunēkate G4920 all these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 ? They say G3004 to him , Yea, [Lord]. 52 And he said G3004 to them , For this reason every scribe γραμματεὺς grammateus G1122 discipled to the kingdom βασιλείᾳ basileia G932 of the heavens οὐρανῶν ouranōn G3772 is G1510 like a man ἀνθρώπῳ anthrōpō G444 [ that is G1510 ] a householder who brings out of his treasure θησαυροῦ thēsaurou G2344 things G3778 new καινὰ kaina G2537 and old παλαιά.¶ palaia G3820 . 53 And it came G1096 to pass ἐγένετο egeneto G1096 when ὅτε hote G3753 Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 had finished ἐτέλεσεν etelesen G5055 these parables παραβολὰς parabolas G3850 he withdrew thence. 54 And having come ἐλθὼν elthōn G2064 into his own G1438 country , he taught ἐδίδασκεν edidasken G1321 them in their synagogue συναγωγῇ sunagōgēa G4864 , so that they were astonished ἐκπλήσσεσθαι ekplēssesthai G1605 , and said λέγειν· legein G3004 , Whence has this [ man G3778 ] this wisdom σοφία sophia G4678 and these works of power δυνάμεις; dunameis G1411 ? 56 And his sisters ἀδελφαὶ adelphai G79 , are G1510 they not all with us? Whence then has this [ man τούτῳ toutō G3778 ] all these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 ? 57 And they were G1510 offended ἐσκανδαλίζοντο eskandalizonto G4624 in him . And Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 said G3004 to them , A prophet προφήτης prophētēs G4396 is G1510 not without honour, unless in his country and in his house G3614 . 58 And he did not there many πολλὰς pollas G4183 works of power G1411 , because of their unbelief ἀπιστίαν apistian G570 . ← Matthew 12 Matthew 14 → Commentaries on Matthew 13 Darby Bible — 1889 — Public Domain
