| ὡς κόκκῳ σινάπεως, ὃς ὁταν σπαρῇ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, μικρότερον ὂν πάντων τῶν σπερμάτων τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, |
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; | The Parables of the Mustard Seed Mk.4.31-32 | Mt.13.31-33 | Lk.13.18-21 |
| καὶ ὁταν σπαρῇ, ἀναβαίνει καὶ γίνεται μεῖζον πάντων τῶν λαχάνων καὶ ποιεῖ κλάδους μεγάλους, ὡστε δύνασθαι ὑπὸ τὴν σκιὰν αὐτοῦ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατασκηνοῦν. |
yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade." | |
