Mark 4:2-20
2And he taughtG1321 them manyG4183 thingsG4183 in parablesG3850. And he saidG3004 to them in his doctrine,
3Hearken: BeholdG2400, the sower wentG1831 forthG1831 to sowG4687.
4And it cameG2064 to passG1096 as he sowedG4687, oneG3739 fellG4098 by the wayside, and the birdsG4071 cameG2064 and devouredG2719 it.
5And another fellG4098 on the rockyG4075 groundG1093, whereG3699 it had not muchG4183 earthG1093, and immediately it sprung up out [of the groundG1093] because it had no depthG899 of earthG1093;
6and whenG3753 the sunG2246 arose it was burnt up, and because of its not having any rootG4491, it witheredG3583.
7And another fellG4098 among the thornsG173, and the thornsG173 grew up and chokedG4846 it, and it yielded no fruitG2590.
8And another fellG4098 into the goodG2570 groundG1093, and yielded fruitG2590, growingG837 up and increasingG837; and bore, oneG1520 thirtyG5144, and oneG1520 sixtyG1835, and oneG1520 a hundredG1540.
9And he saidG3004, He that has earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191.
10And whenG3753 he was aloneG3441, those about him with the twelveG1427 askedG2065 him [as to] the parablesG3850.
11And he saidG3004 to them, To you is givenG1325 [to know] the mysteryG3466 of the kingdomG932 of 1GodG2316; but to them who are without, all thingsG3956 are done in parablesG3850,
12that beholding they may behold and not seeG3708, and hearingG191 they may hearG191 and not understandG4920, lestG3361 it may be, they should be converted and they should be forgivenG863.
13And he saysG3004 to them, Do ye not knowG1097 this parableG3850? and howG4459 will ye be acquainted with all the parablesG3850?
14The sower sowsG4687 the wordG3056:
15and these areG1510 they by the wayside whereG3699 the wordG3056 isG1510 sownG4687, and whenG3752 they hearG191, immediately SatanG4567 comesG2064 and takesG142 awayG142 the wordG3056 that wasG1510 sownG4687 in them.
16And these areG1510 they in like manner who areG1510 sownG4687 upon the rockyG4075 places, who whenG3752 they hearG191 the wordG3056, immediately receiveG2983 it with joyG5479,
17and they have no rootG4491 in themselves, but areG1510 for a time: then, tribulationG2347 arising, or persecutionG1375 on accountG3056 of the wordG3056, immediately they areG1510 offendedG4624.
18And othersG243 areG1510 they who areG1510 sownG4687 among the thornsG173: these areG1510 they who have heardG191 the wordG3056,
19and the caresG3308 of life, and the deceitfulness of richesG4149, and the lustsG1939 of otherG3062 thingsG3062, enteringG1531 in, chokeG4846 the wordG3056, and it becomesG1096 unfruitfulG175.
20And these areG1510 they who have beenG1510 sownG4687 on the goodG2570 groundG1093, such as hearG191 the wordG3056 and receiveG3858 it, and bear fruitG2592; oneG1520 thirtyG5144, and oneG1520 sixtyG1835, and oneG1520 a hundredG1540 [fold].
