The Parable of the Sower
Matthew 13:1-9
The Parable of the Sower
1 On
the same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.
2 And great multitudes were gathered together to Him, so that He
got into a boat and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. 3
Then He spoke many things to them in parables, saying: “Behold, a sower
went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seed fell
by the wayside; and the birds came and devoured them. 5
Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth;
and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth.
6 But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they
had no root they withered away. 7 And some fell
among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them. 8
But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop: some a hundredfold,
some sixty, some thirty. 9 He who has ears to hear,
let him hear!”
