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.

3 Hearken, lo, the sower went forth to sow;

4 and it came to pass, in the sowing, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven did come and devour it;

5 and other fell upon the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprang forth, because of not having depth of earth,

6 and the sun having risen, it was scorched, and because of not having root it did wither;

7 and other fell toward the thorns, and the thorns did come up, and choke it, and fruit it gave not;

8 and other fell to the good ground, and was giving fruit, coming up and increasing, and it bare, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.

9 And he said to them, He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.
