Mark 4:3-9

4And it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and devoured it.

5Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth.

6But when the sun was up it was scorched, and because it had no root it withered away.

7And some seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no crop.

8But other seed fell on good ground and yielded a crop that sprang up, increased and produced: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.”

9And He said to them, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
