Matthew 13:2-9

2And large crowds gathered to Him, so 1He got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd was standing on the beach.

3And He told them many things in 2parables, saying, “Behold, the sower went out to sow; 4and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up. 5Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and they sprang up immediately, because they had no depth of soil. 6But after the sun rose, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. 7Others fell 3among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them out. 8But others fell on the good soil and yielded a crop, some a 4hundred, some sixty, and some thirty times as much. 95The one who has ears, 6let him hear.”
