AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³⁴ Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds with parables. He did not say anything to them without using a parable. ³⁵ [This was] so that what was spoken by the prophet would be fulfilled, when he said [Psa. 78:2], “I will open my mouth [to speak] with parables. I will say things that have been hidden from the beginning of time.”
