Matthew 13:4-23

4andG2532 asG1722 heG2532 sowedG4687, someG3588 seeds fellG4098 byG1722 theG3588 wayG3598 sideG3844, andG2532 theG3588 birdsG4071 cameG2064 andG2532 devouredG2719 themG846:

5andG2532 othersG243 fellG4098 uponG1909 theG3588 rockyG4075 places, whereG3699 theyG2532 had notG3756 muchG4183 earthG1093: andG2532 straightway theyG2532 sprangG1816 upG1816, becauseG1223 theyG2532 had noG3756 deepness ofG1223 earthG1093:

6andG2532 whenG2532 theG3588 sunG2246 was risenG393, theyG2532 were scorchedG2739; andG2532 becauseG1223 theyG2532 had noG3361 rootG4491, theyG2532 witheredG3583 awayG3583.

7AndG2532 othersG243 fellG4098 uponG1909 theG3588 thornsG173; andG2532 theG3588 thornsG173 grewG305 upG305, andG2532 choked themG846:

8andG2532 othersG243 fellG4098 uponG1909 theG3588 goodG2570 groundG1093, andG2532 yieldedG1325 fruitG2590, someG3588 a hundredfoldG1540, someG3588 sixtyG1835, someG3588 thirtyG5144.

9HeG2192 thatG191 hath earsG3775, let himG191 hearG191.

10AndG2532 theG3588 disciplesG3101 cameG4334, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, WhyG5101 speakest thou unto themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850?

11AndG1161 heG846 answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004 unto themG846, Unto youG5210 itG846 is givenG1325 toG3004 knowG1097 theG3588 mysteriesG3466 ofG932 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 heavenG3772, butG1161 toG3004 themG846 itG846 is notG3756 givenG1325.

12ForG1063 whosoever hath, toG2532 himG846 shallG2532 beG2532 givenG1325, andG2532 heG2532 shallG2532 have abundanceG4052: butG1161 whosoever hath notG3756, fromG575 himG846 shallG2532 beG2532 takenG142 awayG142 evenG2532 thatG3739 whichG3739 heG2532 hath.

13ThereforeG1223 speakG2980 IG2532 toG2532 themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850; becauseG3754 seeingG991 theyG846 seeG991 notG3756, andG2532 hearingG191 theyG846 hearG191 notG3756, neitherG3756 doG2532 theyG846 understandG4920.

14AndG2532 unto themG846 is fulfilledG378 theG3588 prophecyG4394 ofG191 IsaiahG2268, whichG3588 saith, ByG3004 hearingG191 ye shallG2532 hearG191, andG2532 shallG2532 inG2532 noG3756 wise understandG4920; AndG2532 seeingG3708 ye shallG2532 seeG3708, andG2532 shallG2532 inG2532 noG3756 wise perceiveG3708:

15ForG1063 thisG3778 people’sG846 heartG2588 is waxed gross, AndG2532 theirG846 earsG3775 are dullG3975 ofG191 hearingG191, AndG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788 theyG846 have closedG2576; Lest haply theyG846 shouldG3778 perceiveG3708 withG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788, AndG2532 hearG191 withG2532 theirG846 earsG3775, AndG2532 understandG4920 withG2532 theirG846 heartG2588, AndG2532 shouldG3778 turnG1994 againG1994, AndG2532 IG2532 shouldG3778 healG2390 themG846.

16ButG1161 blessedG3107 are yourG2532 eyesG3788, forG3754 theyG2532 seeG991; andG2532 yourG2532 earsG3775, forG3754 theyG2532 hearG191.

17ForG1063 verily IG3739 sayG3004 unto youG5210, thatG3754 manyG4183 prophetsG4396 andG2532 righteousG1342 menG1342 desiredG1937 toG3004 seeG3708 theG2532 thingsG4183 whichG3739 ye seeG3708, andG2532 sawG3708 themG3739 notG3756; andG2532 toG3004 hearG191 theG2532 thingsG4183 whichG3739 ye hearG191, andG2532 heardG191 themG3739 notG3756.

18HearG191 thenG3767 ye theG3588 parableG3850 ofG191 theG3588 sowerG4687.

19WhenG2532 anyG3956 oneG3778 heareth theG3956 wordG3056 ofG932 theG3956 kingdomG932, andG2532 understandeth itG846 notG3361, thenG2532 cometh theG3956 evilG4190 oneG3778, andG2532 snatcheth awayG726 thatG191 whichG3588 hath beenG1510 sownG4687 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588. ThisG3778 isG1510 heG2532 thatG191 wasG1510 sownG4687 byG1722 theG3956 wayG3598 sideG3844.

20AndG2532 heG2532 thatG191 wasG1510 sownG4687 uponG1909 theG3588 rockyG4075 places, thisG3778 isG1510 heG2532 thatG191 heareth theG3588 wordG3056, andG2532 straightway withG3326 joyG5479 receiveth itG846;

21yetG1161 hath heG1161 notG3756 rootG4491 inG1722 himselfG1438, butG1161 endureth forG1223 a whileG1722; andG1161 whenG1161 tribulationG2347 orG2228 persecutionG1375 ariseth becauseG1223 ofG3056 theG3588 wordG3056, straightway heG1161 stumbleth.

22AndG2532 heG2532 thatG191 wasG1510 sownG4687 amongG1519 theG3588 thornsG173, thisG3778 isG1510 heG2532 thatG191 heareth theG3588 wordG3056; andG2532 theG3588 care ofG3056 theG3588 worldG165, andG2532 theG3588 deceitfulnessG539 ofG3056 richesG4149, chokeG4846 theG3588 wordG3056, andG2532 heG2532 becometh unfruitfulG175.

23AndG2532 heG2532 thatG3739 wasG1510 sownG4687 uponG1909 theG3588 goodG2570 groundG1093, thisG3778 isG1510 heG2532 thatG3739 heareth theG3588 wordG3056, andG2532 understandeth itG4160; whoG3739 verily beareth fruitG2592, andG2532 bringeth forthG4160, someG3588 aG1510 hundredfoldG1540, someG3588 sixtyG1835, someG3588 thirtyG5144.
