New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |
|
|
| 30 | He said also, 'How shall we picture the kingdom of God, or by what parable shall we describe it? | The Parables of the Mustard Seed Mk.4.30-32 (Plain of Gennesaret) | Mt.13.31-33 | Lk.13.18-21 | Καὶ ἐλεγεν, Πῶς ὁμοιώσωμεν τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ, ἢ ἐν τίνι αὐτὴν παραβολῇ θῶμεν; |
|
| 31 | It is like the mustard-seed, which is smaller than any seed in the ground at its sowing. | | ὡς κόκκῳ σινάπεως, ὃς ὁταν σπαρῇ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, μικρότερον ὂν πάντων τῶν σπερμάτων τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, |
|
| 32 | But once sown, it springs up and grows taller than any other plant, and forms branches so large that the birds can settle in its shade.' | | 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. |
