3 And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, A man went out to put seed in the earth;

4 And while he did so, some seeds were dropped by the wayside, and the birds came and took them for food:

5 And some of the seed went among the stones, where it had not much earth, and straight away it came up 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 seeds went among thorns, and the thorns came up and they had no room for growth:

8 And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

9 He who has ears, let him give ear.

3 És sokat beszéle nékik példázatokban, mondván: Ímé kiméne a magvetõ vetni,

4 És a mikor õ vet vala, némely mag az útfélre esék; és eljövén a madarak, elkapdosák azt.

5 Némely pedig a köves helyre esék, a hol nem sok földje vala; és hamar kikele, mivelhogy nem vala mélyen a földben.

6 De mikor a nap felkelt, elsüle; és mivelhogy gyökere nem vala, elszáradott.

7 Némely pedig a tövisek közé esék, és a tövisek felnevekedvén, megfojták azt.

8 Némely pedig a jó földbe esék, és gyümölcsöt terme, némely száz annyit, némely hatvan annyit, némely pedig harmincz annyit.

9 A kinek van füle a hallásra, hallja.
