Matthew 13:3-9 ▼

3 And He spoke many things to them in parables, saying, “Behold, the sower went out to sow;

4 and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up.

5 “Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.

6 “But when the sun had risen, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

7 “Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them out.

8 “And others fell on the good soil and yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.

9 “He who has ears, let him hear.”
