“ Listen then to what the parable of the sower means:

“ Listen! Here is the meaning of the story of the farmer.

“ Now listen to the explanation of the parable about the farmer planting seeds:

“ So listen to the parable of the sower:

“ Listen then to the parable of the sower.

“ Therefore hear the parable of the sower:

Hear then ye the parable of the sower.

“ You, then, listen to the parable of the sower:

Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

“ So listen to the parable of the sower:

“ Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.And as for what fell among the thorns, they are those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature.As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience.

And he answered them,“ To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

And he said to them,“ Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?The sower sows the word.And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown: when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that is sown in them.And these are the ones sown on rocky ground: the ones who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy.And they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word,but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”
