41:004:018 And these are they which are sown among
thorns; such as hear
the
word,
41:004:019 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness
of riches,
and
the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word,
and
it
becometh unfruitful.
41:004:020 And these are they which are sown on good
ground; such as hear
the
word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some
thirtyfold,
some sixty, and some an hundred.
41:004:021 And he said unto them, Is a candle brought
to be put under a
bushel,
or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?
41:004:022 For there is nothing hid, which shall not
be manifested;
neither
was any thing kept secret, but that it should come
abroad.
41:004:023 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
41:004:024 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye
hear: with what
measure
ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto
you
that
hear shall more be given.
41:004:025 For he that hath, to him shall be given:
and he that hath not,
from
him shall be taken even that which he hath.
41:004:026 And he said, So is the kingdom of God,
as if a man should cast
seed
into the ground;
41:004:027 And should sleep, and rise night and day,
and the seed should
spring
and grow up, he knoweth not how.
41:004:028 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself;
first the
blade,
then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
41:004:029 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately
he putteth in
the
sickle, because the harvest is come.
41:004:030 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the
kingdom of God? or
with
what comparison shall we compare it?
41:004:031 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which,
when it is sown in
the
earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
41:004:032 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and
becometh greater than
all
herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the
fowls
of
the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
41:004:033 And with many such parables spake he the
word unto them, as
they
were able to hear it.
41:004:034 But without a parable spake he not unto
them: and when they
were
alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
41:004:035 And the same day, when the even was come,
he saith unto them,
Let
us pass over unto the other side.
41:004:036 And when they had sent away the multitude,
they took him even
as
he was in the ship. And there were also with him
other
little
ships.
41:004:037 And there arose a great storm of wind,
and the waves beat into
the
ship, so that it was now full.
