Mark 4:26-29 And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the earth,

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the earth, ²⁷ And should sleep, and rise, night and day, and the seed should spring, and grow up whilst he knoweth not. ²⁸ For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear. ²⁹ And when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
