Matthew 13:3-8 ▼

3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying, |Look, a farmer went out to sow.

4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.

5 And others fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.

6 But when the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.

7 Others fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.

8 Still others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
