JPS_ASV_Byz(i)
2 And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in his teaching,
3 Hearken; Behold, the sower went forth to sow;
4 and it came to pass, as he sowed, some seed fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 And other fell on the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and straightway it sprang up, because it had no deepness of earth;
6 and when the sun was risen, it was scorched, and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 And other fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing, and brought forth, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
9 And he said, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
