3 Ouvi: Eis que o semeador saiu a semear;

4 e aconteceu que, quando semeava, uma parte da semente caiu à beira do caminho, e vieram as aves e a comeram.

5 Outra caiu no solo pedregoso, onde não havia muita terra: e logo nasceu, porque não tinha terra profunda;

6 mas, saindo o sol, queimou-se; e, porque não tinha raiz, secou-se.

7 E outra caiu entre espinhos; e cresceram os espinhos, e a sufocaram; e não deu fruto.

8 Mas outras caíram em boa terra e, vingando e crescendo, davam fruto; e um grão produzia trinta, outro sessenta, e outro cem.

9 E disse-lhes: Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça.

3 "Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow. 4 As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it. 5 Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil. 6 When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away. 7 Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. 8 Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much." 9 He said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."
