3 Hearken; 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 unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

3 Ouvi: Saiu o semeador a semear.

4 Enquanto lançava a semente, uma parte caiu à beira do caminho, e vieram as aves e a comeram.

5 Outra parte caiu no pedregulho, onde não havia muita terra; o grão germinou logo, porque a terra não era profunda;

6 mas, assim que o sol despontou, queimou-se e, como não tivesse raiz, secou.

7 Outra parte caiu entre os espinhos; estes cresceram, sufocaram-na e o grão não deu fruto.

8 Outra caiu em terra boa e deu fruto, cresceu e desenvolveu-se; um grão rendeu trinta, outro sessenta e outro cem.

9 E dizia: Quem tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça!
