3 Listen; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

9 And he said to them, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

3 Udite: Ecco, un seminatore uscì a seminare.

4 Ed avvenne che mentre egli seminava, una parte cadde lungo la via, e gli uccelli del cielo vennero, e la mangiarono.

5 Ed un’altra cadde in luoghi pietrosi, ove non avea molta terra; e subito nacque, perciocchè non avea terreno profondo;

6 ma quando il sole fu levato, fu riarsa; e, perciocchè non avea radice, si seccò.

7 Ed un’altra cadde fra le spine, e le spine crebbero, e l’affogarono, e non fece frutto.

8 Ed un’altra cadde in buona terra, e portò frutto, il quale montò, e crebbe; e portò l’uno trenta, l’altro sessanta e l’altro cento.

9 Poi egli disse: Chi ha orecchie da udire, oda.
