3 Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow.

4 And it came to pass as he sowed, one fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured it.

5 And another fell on the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprung up out {of the ground} because it had no depth of earth;

6 and when the sun arose it was burnt up, and because of its not having any root, it withered.

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

8 And another fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and bore, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

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

3 Ouvi. O semeador saiu a semear;

4 quando semeava, uma parte da semente caiu à beira do caminho, e vieram as aves e comeram-na.

5 Outra parte caiu nos lugares pedregosos, onde não havia muita terra; logo nasceu, porque a terra não era profunda,

6 e tendo saído o sol, queimou-se; e porque não tinha raiz, secou-se.

7 Outra caiu entre os espinhos; e os espinhos cresceram, e sufocaram-na, e não deu fruto algum.

8 Mas outras caíram na boa terra e, brotando e crescendo, davam fruto, um grão produzia trinta, outro sessenta e outro cem.

9 Disse: Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça.
