Matthew 13:15-24

15for the heartG2588 of this peopleG2992 has grown fat, and they have heardG191 heavily with their earsG3775, and they have closed their eyesG3788 as asleep, lest they should seeG3708 with the eyesG3788, and hearG191 with the earsG3775, and understandG4920 with the heartG2588, and should be converted, and I should healG2390 them.

16But blessed are your eyesG3788 because they seeG991, and your earsG3775 because they hearG191;

17for verily I sayG3004 unto you, that manyG4183 prophetsG4396 and righteousG1342 [menG1342] have desiredG1937 to seeG3708 the thingsG4183 which ye behold and did not seeG3708 [them], and to hearG191 the thingsG4183 which ye hearG191 and did not hearG191 [them].

18Ye, thereforeG3767, hearG191 the parableG3850 of the sower.

19From every oneG3778 who hearsG191 the wordG3056 of the kingdomG932 and does not understandG4920 [it], the wickedG4190 oneG3778 comesG2064 and catches awayG726 what wasG1510 sownG4687 in his heartG2588: this isG1510 he that isG1510 sownG4687 by the wayside.

20But he that isG1510 sownG4687 on the rockyG4075 places — this isG1510 he who hearsG191 the wordG3056 and immediately receivesG2983 it with joyG5479,

21but has no rootG4491 in himself, but isG1510 for a time only; and when tribulationG2347 or persecutionG1375 happensG1096 on accountG3056 of the wordG3056, he isG1510 immediately offendedG4624.

22And he that isG1510 sownG4687 among the thornsG173 — this isG1510 he who hearsG191 the wordG3056, and the anxious care of this life, and the deceitG539 of richesG4149 chokeG4846 the wordG3056, and he becomesG1096 unfruitfulG175.

23But he that isG1510 sownG4687 upon the goodG2570 groundG1093 — this isG1510 he who hearsG191 and understandsG4920 the wordG3056, who bears fruitG2592 alsoG2532, and produces, oneG3739 a hundredG1540, oneG3739 sixtyG1835, and oneG3739 thirtyG5144.

24Another parableG3850 setG3908 he before them, sayingG3004, The kingdomG932 of the heavensG3772 has becomeG3666 like a manG444 sowingG4687 goodG2570 seedG4690 in his fieldG68;
