3 Então lhes falou muitas coisas por parábolas, dizendo: "O semeador saiu a semear.

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

5 Parte dela caiu em terreno pedregoso, onde não havia muita terra; e logo brotou, porque a terra não era profunda.

6 Mas quando saiu o sol, as plantas se queimaram e secaram, porque não tinham raiz.

7 Outra parte caiu entre espinhos, que cresceram e sufocaram as plantas.

8 Outra ainda caiu em boa terra, deu boa colheita, a cem, sessenta e trinta por um.

9 Aquele que tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça! "

3 And he spake unto them many things, in parables, saying: Lo! the sower went forth to sow,

4 and, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell by the pathway, and, the birds, came, and devoured it;

5 And, some, fell on the rocky places, where it had not much earth,and, straightway, it sprang up, because if had no depth of earth;

6 and, the sun arising, it was scorched, and, because it had no root, it withered away;

7 And, some, fell upon the thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it;

8 But, some, fell upon the good ground, and did yield fruit,this, indeed a hundred fold, and, that, sixty, and, the other, thirty.

9 He that hath ears, let him hear.
