The parable of the sower
Luke 8:4-8
4And when a large crowd was gathering and those from town after town were coming to him, he spoke by means of a parable: 5“The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the path and was trampled, and the birds of the sky ate it up. 6And other seed fell on the rock, and when it had grown, it withered because it had no moisture. 7And other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it. 8And other seed fell into the good soil, and when it had grown, it produced fruit a hundredfold.” As he said these things, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
1On that day Jesus, going out of the house, was sitting beside the sea. 2And large crowds gathered around him, so that he got into a boat and sat there; and the whole crowd was standing on the shore. 3And he told them many things in parables, saying, “Look, the sower went out to sow. 4And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and ate them up. 5Other seeds fell on the rocky ground, where they did not have much soil; and at once they sprang up, because they did not have depth of soil. 6But when the sun rose, they were scorched, and because they did not have root, they withered. 7Other seeds fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them. 8And other seeds fell on the good soil and were producing fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. 9The one who has ears, let him hear.”
1And again he began to teach beside the sea. And a very large crowd gathers around him, so that he got into a boat and sat on the sea, and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. 2And he was teaching them many things in parables, and he was saying to them in his teaching, 3“Listen! Look, the sower went out to sow. 4And it happened as he sowed that some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5And other seed fell on the rocky ground, where it did not have much soil, and at once it sprang up, because it did not have depth of soil. 6And when the sun rose, it was scorched, and because it did not have root, it withered. 7And other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it gave no fruit. 8And other seeds fell into the good soil and were giving fruit, growing up and increasing, and were bearing, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.” 9And he was saying, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
7And other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it.
