1 예수께서 다시 바닷가에서 가르치시니 큰 무리가 모여 들거늘 예수께서 배에 올라 바다에 떠 앉으시고 온 무리는 바다 곁 육지에 있더라

2 이에 예수께서 여러 가지를 비유로 가르치시니 그 가르치시는 중에 저희에게 이르시되

3 `들으라 씨를 뿌리는 자가 뿌리러 나가서

4 뿌릴새 더러는 길 가에 떨어지매 새들이 와서 먹어 버렸고

5 더러는 흙이 얇은 돌밭에 떨어지매 흙이 깊지 아니하므로 곧 싹이 나오나

6 해가 돋은 후에 터져서 뿌리가 없으므로 말랐고

7 더러는 가시떨기에 떨어지매 가시가 자라 기운을 막으므로 결실치 못하였고

8 더러는 좋은 땅에 떨어지매 자라 무성하여 결실하였으니 삼십배와 육십배와 백배가 되었느니라' 하시고

9 또 이르시되 `들을 귀 있는 자는 들으라' 하시니라

10 예수께서 홀로 계실 때에 함께한 사람들이 열 두 제자로 더불어 그 비유를 묻자오니

11 이르시되 `하나님 나라의 비밀을 너희에게는 주었으나 외인에게는 모든 것을 비유로 하나니

12 이는 저희로 보기는 보아도 알지 못하며 듣기는 들어도 깨닫지 못하게 하여 돌이켜 죄 사함을 얻지 못하게 하여 함이니라' 하시고

13 또 가라사대 `너희가 이 비유를 알지 못할진대 어떻게 모든 비유를 알겠느뇨?

14 뿌리는 자는 말씀을 뿌리는 것이다

15 말씀이 길가에 뿌리웠다는 것은 이들이니 곧 말씀을 들었을 때에 사단이 즉시 와서 저희에게 뿌리운 말씀을 빼앗는 것이요

16 또 이와 같이 돌밭에 뿌리웠다는 것은 이들이니 곧 말씀을 들을 때에 즉시 기쁨으로 받으나

17 그 속에 뿌리가 없어 잠간 견디다가 말씀을 인하여 환난이나 핍박이 일어나는 때에는 곧 넘어지는 자요

18 또 어떤이는 가시떨기에 뿌리우는 자니 이들은 말씀을 듣되

19 세상의 염려와 재리의 유혹과 기타 욕심이 들어와 말씀을 막아 결실치 못하게 되는 자요

20 좋은 땅에 뿌리웠다는 것은 곧 말씀을 듣고 받아 삼십배와 육십배와 백배의 결실을 하는 자니라'

21 또 저희에게 이르시되 `사람이 등불을 가져오는 것은 말 아래나 평상 아래나 두려함이냐 등경 위에 두려함이 아니냐

22 드러내려 하지 않고는 숨긴 것이 없고 나타내려 하지 않고는 감추인 것이 없느니라

23 들을 귀 있는 자는 들으라'

24 또 가라사대 `너희가 무엇을 듣는가 스스로 삼가라 너희의 헤아리는 그 헤아림으로 너희가 헤아림을 받을것이요 또 더 받으리니

25 있는자는 받을것이요 없는 자는 그 있는 것까지 빼앗기리라'

26 또 가라사대 `하나님의 나라는 사람이 씨를 땅에 뿌림과 같으니

27 저가 밤낮 자고 깨고 하는 중에 씨가 나서 자라되 그 어떻게 된 것을 알지 못하느니라

28 땅이 스스로 열매를 맺되 처음에는 싹이요 다음에는 이삭이요 그 다음에는 이삭에 충실한 곡식이라

29 열매가 익으면 곧 낫을 대나니 이는 추수 때가 이르렀음이니라'

30 또 가라사대 `우리가 하나님의 나라를 어떻게 비하며 또 무슨 비유로 나타낼꼬

31 겨자씨 한 알과 같으니 땅에 심길 때에는 땅 위의 모든 씨보다 작은 것이로되

32 심긴 후에는 자라서 모든 나물보다 커지며 큰 가지를 내니 공중의 새들이 그 그늘에 깃들일 만큼 되느니라'

33 예수께서 이러한 많은 비유로 저희가 알아 들을 수 있는대로 말씀을 가르치시되

34 비유가 아니면 말씀하지 아니 하시고 다만 혼자 계실 때에 그 제자들에게 모든것을 해석하시더라

35 그날 저물 때에 제자들에게 이르시되 `우리가 저편으로 건너가자' 하시니

36 저희가 무리를 떠나 예수를 배에 계신 그대로 모시고 가매 다른 배들도 함께 하더니

37 큰 광풍이 일어나며 물결이 부딪혀 배에 들어와 배에 가득하게 되었더라

38 예수께서는 고물에서 베개를 베시고 주무시더니 제자들이 깨우며 가로되 `선생님이여 우리의 죽게 된것을 돌아보지 아니하시나이까 ?' 하니

39 예수께서 깨어 바람을 꾸짖으시며 바다더러 이르시되 `잠잠하라 ! 고요하라 !' 하시니 바람이 그치고 아주 잔잔하여지더라

40 이에 제자들에게 이르시되 `어찌하여 이렇게 무서워하느냐 ? 너희가 어찌 믿음이 없느냐 ?' 하시니

41 저희가 심히 두려워하여 서로 말하되 `저가 뉘기에 바람과 바다라도 순종하는고' 하였더라

1 And again he was teaching by the seaside. And a very great number of people had come to him, so that he got into a boat on the sea and took his seat; and all the people were on the land by the seaside.

2 And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:

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.

10 And when he was by himself, those who were round him with the twelve put questions to him about the purpose of the stories.

11 And he said to them, To you is given the secret of the kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are given in the form of stories;

12 So that seeing they may see, and it will not be clear to them; and hearing it, they will not get the sense; for fear that they may be turned again to me and have forgiveness.

13 And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

14 The seed is the word.

15 And these are they by the wayside, where the word is planted; and when they have given ear, the Evil One comes straight away and takes away the word which has been planted in them.

16 And in the same way, these are they who are planted on the stones, who, when the word has come to their ears, straight away take it with joy;

17 And they have no root in themselves, but go on for a time; then, when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, they quickly become full of doubts.

18 And others are those planted among the thorns; these are they who have given ear to the word,

19 And the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, and the desire for other things coming in, put a stop to the growth of the word, and it gives no fruit.

20 And these are they who were planted on the good earth; such as give ear to the word, and take it into their hearts, and give fruit, thirty and sixty and a hundred times as much.

21 And he said to them, When the light comes in, do people put it under a vessel, or under the bed, and not on its table?

22 There is nothing covered which will not be seen openly, and nothing has been made secret which will not come to light.

23 If any man has ears, let him give ear.

24 And he said to them, Take care what you give ear to: in the same measure as you give you will get, and more will be given to you.

25 He who has, to him will be given: and he who has not, from him will be taken even that which he has.

26 And he said, Such is the kingdom of God, as if a man put seed in the earth,

27 And went to sleep and got up, night and day, and the seed came to growth, though he had no idea how.

28 The earth gives fruit by herself; first the leaf, then the head, then the full grain.

29 But when the grain is ready, he quickly sends men to get it cut, because the time for cutting has come.

30 And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?

31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is put in the earth, is smaller than all the seeds on the earth,

32 But when it is planted, it comes up, and becomes taller than all the plants, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of heaven are able to take rest in its shade.

33 And with a number of such stories he gave them his teaching, as they were able to take it:

34 And without a story he said nothing to them: but privately to his disciples he made all things clear.

35 And on that day, when the evening had come, he said to them, Let us go over to the other side.

36 And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

37 And a great storm of wind came up, and the waves came into the boat, so that the boat was now becoming full.

38 And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

39 And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said to them, Why are you full of fear? have you still no faith?

41 And their fear was great, and they said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea do his orders?
