Matthew 13:31-35
31He presentedG3908 anotherG243 parableG3850 to them, sayingG3004, “1The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is likeG3664 2a mustardG4615 seedG2848, whichG3739 a personG444 tookG2983 and sowedG4687 in his fieldG68; 32and thisG3739 is smallerG3398 than allG3956 the other seedsG4690, but whenG3752 it is fully grownG837, it is largerG3173 than the gardenG3001 plantsG3001 and becomesG1096 a treeG1186, soG5620 thatG5620 3the birdsG4071 of the skyG3772 comeG2064 and nestG2681 in its branchesG2798.”
33He spokeG2980 anotherG243 parableG3850 to them: “4The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is likeG3664 5leavenG2219, whichG3739 a womanG1135 tookG2983 and hidG1470 in 6threeG5140 7sataG4568 of flourG224 untilG2193 it was allG3650 leavenedG2220.”
34AllG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 JesusG2424 spokeG2980 to the crowdsG3793 in parablesG3850, and He did not speakG2980 anythingG3762 to them 8withoutG5565 a parableG3850. 35This was soG3704 thatG3704 whatG3588 was spokenG3004 throughG1223 the prophetG4396 would be 9fulfilledG4137: “10I will openG455 My mouthG4750 in parablesG3850; I will proclaimG2044 thingsG2928 hiddenG2928 sinceG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.”
