4And when a great crowd came together and people from town after town came to him, he said in a parable:The Parable of the Sower Lk.8.4-8 (Plain of Gennesaret) | Mt.13.1-9 | Mk.4.1-9Συνιόντος δὲ ὀχλου πολλοῦ καὶ τῶν κατὰ πόλιν ἐπιπορευομένων πρὸς αὐτὸν εἶπεν διὰ παραβολῆς,
5"A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the path, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it.  Ἐξῆλθεν ὁ σπείρων τοῦ σπεῖραι τὸν σπόρον αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἐν τῷ σπείρειν αὐτὸν ὃ μὲν ἐπεσεν παρὰ τὴν ὁδόν, καὶ κατεπατήθη, καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατέφαγεν αὐτό.
6And some fell on the rock; and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.  καὶ ἑτερον κατέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν, καὶ φυὲν ἐξηράνθη διὰ τὸ μὴ ἐχειν ἰκμάδα.
7And some fell among thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.  καὶ ἑτερον ἐπεσεν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀκανθῶν, καὶ συμφυεῖσαι αἱ ἀκανθαι ἀπέπνιξαν αὐτό.
8And some fell into good soil and grew, and yielded a hundredfold." As he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."  καὶ ἑτερον ἐπεσεν εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ἀγαθήν, καὶ φυὲν ἐποίησεν καρπὸν ἑκατονταπλασίονα. ταῦτα λέγων ἐφώνει, Ὁ ἐχων ὦτα ἀκούειν ἀκουέτω.
