3 E falou-lhe de muitas coisas por parábolas, dizendo: Eis que o semeador saiu a semear.

4 E, quando semeava, uma parte da semente caiu junto ao caminho, e vieram as aves, e comeram-na;

5 E outra parte caiu em pedregais, onde não havia terra bastante, e logo nasceu, porque não tinha terra funda;

6 Mas, vindo o sol, queimou-se, e secou-se, porque não tinha raiz.

7 E outra caiu entre espinhos, e os espinhos cresceram e sufocaram-na.

8 E outra caiu em boa terra, e deu fruto: um a cem, outro a sessenta e outro a trinta.

9 Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça.

3 And he spoke many things to them in parables, saying, Behold, the man who sows went forth to sow.

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

5 But others fell upon the rocky places, where they had not much soil, and straightaway they sprang up because they had no depth of soil.

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

7 And others fell in the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.

8 But others fell upon the good ground, and yielded fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

9 He who has ears, let him hear.
