Mark 4:2-20
2AndG2532 heG2532 taughtG1321 themG846 manyG4183 thingsG4183 inG1722 parablesG3850, andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846 inG1722 hisG846 teachingG1321,
3Hearken: BeholdG2400, theG3588 sowerG4687 wentG1831 forthG1831 toG191 sowG4687:
4andG2532 itG846 cameG2064 toG2064 passG1096, asG1722 heG2532 sowedG4687, someG3588 seedG4098 fellG4098 byG1722 theG3588 wayG3598 sideG3844, andG2532 theG3588 birdsG4071 cameG2064 andG2532 devouredG2719 itG846.
5AndG2532 otherG243 fellG4098 onG1909 theG3588 rockyG4075 groundG1093, whereG3699 itG1223 had notG3756 muchG4183 earthG1093; andG2532 straightway itG1223 sprangG1816 upG1816, becauseG1223 itG1223 had noG3756 deepness ofG1223 earthG1093:
6andG2532 whenG3753 theG3588 sunG2246 was risenG393, itG1223 was scorchedG2739; andG2532 becauseG1223 itG1223 had noG3361 rootG4491, itG1223 witheredG3583 awayG3583.
7AndG2532 otherG243 fellG4098 amongG1519 theG3588 thornsG173, andG2532 theG3588 thornsG173 grewG305 upG305, andG2532 chokedG4846 itG846, andG2532 itG846 yieldedG1325 noG3756 fruitG2590.
8AndG2532 othersG243 fellG4098 intoG1519 theG3588 goodG2570 groundG1093, andG2532 yieldedG1325 fruitG2590, growingG837 upG305 andG2532 increasingG837; andG2532 broughtG5342 forth, thirtyfold, andG2532 sixtyfold, andG2532 a hundredfoldG1540.
9AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004, WhoG3739 hath earsG3775 toG3004 hearG191, letG3004 himG3739 hearG191.
10AndG2532 whenG3753 heG2532 was aloneG3441, theyG846 thatG1096 were aboutG4012 himG846 withG4862 theG3588 twelveG1427 askedG2065 ofG4012 himG846 theG3588 parablesG3850.
11AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, Unto youG5210 is givenG1325 theG3956 mysteryG3466 ofG932 theG3956 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316: butG1161 unto themG846 thatG1565 are withoutG2532, allG3956 thingsG3956 are doneG1096 inG1722 parablesG3850:
12thatG2443 seeingG3708 theyG846 mayG2532 seeG3708, andG2532 notG3361 perceiveG3708; andG2532 hearingG191 theyG846 mayG2532 hearG191, andG2532 notG3361 understandG4920; lestG3361 haply theyG846 shouldG2443 turnG1994 againG1994, andG2532 itG846 shouldG2443 beG2532 forgivenG863 themG846.
13AndG2532 heG2532 saith unto themG846, KnowG1097 ye notG3756 thisG3778 parableG3850? andG2532 howG4459 shallG3778 ye knowG1097 allG3956 theG3956 parablesG3850?
14TheG3588 sowerG4687 soweth theG3588 wordG3056.
15AndG2532 theseG3778 areG1510 theyG846 byG1722 theG3588 wayG3598 sideG3844, whereG3699 theG3588 wordG3056 isG1510 sownG4687; andG2532 whenG3752 theyG846 haveG1510 heardG191, straightway cometh SatanG4567, andG2532 taketh awayG142 theG3588 wordG3056 whichG3699 hath beenG1510 sownG4687 inG1722 themG846.
16AndG2532 theseG3778 inG1909 likeG3668 mannerG3668 areG1510 theyG846 thatG3739 areG1510 sownG4687 uponG1909 theG3588 rockyG4075 places, whoG3739, whenG3752 theyG846 haveG1510 heardG191 theG3588 wordG3056, straightway receiveG2983 itG846 withG3326 joyG5479;
17andG2532 theyG2532 have noG3756 rootG4491 inG1722 themselvesG1438, butG235 endure forG1223 a whileG1722; thenG2532, whenG2532 tribulationG2347 orG2228 persecutionG1375 ariseth becauseG1223 ofG3056 theG3588 wordG3056, straightway theyG2532 stumbleG4624.
18AndG2532 othersG243 areG1510 theyG2532 thatG191 areG1510 sownG4687 amongG1519 theG3588 thornsG173; theseG3778 areG1510 theyG2532 thatG191 haveG1510 heardG191 theG3588 wordG3056,
19andG2532 theG3588 caresG3308 ofG3056 theG3588 worldG165, andG2532 theG3588 deceitfulnessG539 ofG3056 richesG4149, andG2532 theG3588 lustsG1939 ofG3056 otherG3062 thingsG3062 enteringG1531 inG2532, chokeG4846 theG3588 wordG3056, andG2532 itG2532 becometh unfruitfulG175.
20AndG2532 thoseG3588 areG1510 theyG2532 thatG1565 wereG1510 sownG4687 uponG1909 theG3588 goodG2570 groundG1093; such asG1722 hearG191 theG3588 wordG3056, andG2532 acceptG3858 itG191, andG2532 bearG2592 fruitG2592, thirtyfold, andG2532 sixtyfold, andG2532 aG1510 hundredfoldG1540.
