3 Ouvi: Eis que saiu o semeador a semear.

4 E aconteceu que semeando ele, uma parte da semente caiu junto do caminho, e vieram as aves do céu, e a comeram;

5 E outra caiu sobre pedregais, onde não havia muita terra, e nasceu logo, 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, crescendo os espinhos, a sufocaram e não deu fruto.

8 E outra caiu em boa terra e deu fruto, que vingou e cresceu; e um produziu trinta, outro sessenta, e outro cem.

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

3 "Listen! A sower went out to sow.

4 And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5 Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil;

6 and when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away.

7 Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain.

8 And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold."

9 And he said, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
