And whenG1161 muchG4183 peopleG3793 were gathered togetherG4896, andG2532 were comeG1975 toG4314 himG846 out of everyG2596 cityG4172, he spakeG3004 byG1223 a parableG3850: 5A sowerG3588G4687 went outG1831 to sowG3588G4687 hisG846 seedG3588G4703: andG2532 asG1722 heG846 sowedG3588G4687, someG3739G3303 fellG4098 byG3844 the way sideG3588G3598; andG2532 it was trodden downG2662, andG2532 the fowlsG3588G4071 of the airG3588G3772 devouredG2719 itG846. 6AndG2532 someG2087 fellG4098 uponG1909 a rockG3588G4073; andG2532 as soon as it was sprung upG5453, it withered awayG3583, becauseG1223 itG3588 lackedG3361G2192 moistureG2429. 7AndG2532 someG2087 fellG4098 amongG3319 thornsG3588G173; andG2532 the thornsG3588G173 sprang up with itG4855, and chokedG638 itG846. 8AndG2532 otherG2087 fellG4098 onG1909 goodG18 groundG3588G1093, andG2532 sprang upG5453, and bareG4160 fruitG2590 an hundredfoldG1542. And when he had saidG3004 these thingsG3778, he criedG5455, He that hathG2192 earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191. 9AndG1161 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mightG1510 thisG3778 parableG3588G3850 beG1510? 10AndG1161 he saidG3004, Unto youG4771 it is givenG1325 to knowG1097 the mysteriesG3588G3466 of the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316: butG1161 to othersG3062 inG1722 parablesG3850; thatG2443 seeingG991 they mightG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 hearingG191 they mightG4920 notG3361 understandG4920. 11NowG1161 the parableG3588G3850 isG1510 thisG3778: The seedG3588G4703 isG1510 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316. 12ThoseG3588 byG3844 the way sideG3588G3598 are theyG1510 thatG3588 hearG191; thenG1534 comethG2064 the devilG1228, andG2532 taketh awayG142 the wordG3588G3056 out ofG575 theirG846 heartsG3588G2588, lestG3361 they should believeG4100 and be savedG4982. 13TheyG3588 onG1909 the rockG3588G4073 are they, whichG3739, whenG3752 they hearG191, receiveG1209 the wordG3588G3056 withG3326 joyG5479; andG2532 theseG3778 haveG2192 noG3756 rootG4491, whichG3739 forG4314 a whileG2540 believeG4100, andG2532 inG1722 timeG2540 of temptationG3986 fall awayG868. 14AndG1161 thatG3588 which fellG4098 amongG1519 thornsG3588G173 areG1510 theyG3778, whichG3588, when they have heardG191, go forthG4198, andG2532 are chokedG4846 withG5259 caresG3308 andG2532 richesG4149 andG2532 pleasuresG2237 ofG3588G979 this lifeG3588G979, andG2532 bringG5052 no fruitG3756 to perfectionG5052. 15ButG1161 thatG3588 onG1722 the goodG2570 groundG1093 areG1510 theyG3778, whichG3748 inG1722 an honestG18 andG2532 goodG2570 heartG2588, having heardG191 the wordG3588G3056, keepG2722 it, andG2532 bring forth fruitG2592 withG1722 patienceG5281. 16

No manG3762, when he hath lightedG681 a candleG3088, coverethG2572 itG846 with a vesselG4632, orG2228 puttethG5087 it underG5270 a bedG2825; butG235 settethG2007 it onG1909 a candlestickG3087, thatG2443 they which enter inG1531 may seeG991 the lightG3588G5457. 17ForG1063 nothingG3756 isG1510 secretG2927, thatG3739 shallG1096 notG3756 be madeG1096 manifestG5318; neitherG3761 any thing hidG614, thatG3739 shallG1097 notG3756 be knownG1097 andG2532 comeG2064 abroadG5318. 18Take heedG991 thereforeG3767 howG4459 ye hearG191: forG1063 whosoeverG302 hathG2192, to himG846 shall be givenG1325; andG2532 whosoeverG302 hathG2192 notG3361, fromG575 himG846 shall be takenG142 evenG2532 thatG3739 which he seemethG1380 to haveG2192.
