3 A man went out to put seed in the earth:

4 And while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside, and the birds came and took it for food.

5 And some went on the stones, where it had not much earth; and it came up straight away, because the earth was not deep:

6 And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root, it became dry and dead.

7 And some went among the thorns, and the thorns came up, and it had no room for growth and gave no fruit.

8 And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, coming up and increasing, and giving thirty, sixty, and a hundred times as much.

9 And he said to them, Whoever has ears, let him give ear.

3 "你们听着! 有一个撒种的出去撒种,

4 撒的时候, 有的落在路旁, 小鸟飞来就吃掉了。

5 有的落在泥土不多的石地上, 因为泥土不深, 很快就长起来。

6 但太阳一出来, 就把它晒干, 又因为没有根就枯萎了。

7 有的落在荆棘里, 荆棘长起来, 把它挤住, 它就结不出果实来。

8 有的落在好土里, 就生长繁茂, 结出果实, 有三十倍的、有六十倍的、有一百倍的。"

9 耶稣又说: "有耳可听的, 就应当听。"
