13:3
And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed.
13:4
And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
13:5
Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
13:6
But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
13:7
Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings.
13:8
Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.
13:9
He who has ears, let him hear.”
