Luke 8:4-8 And when a great multitude had assembled, and from all the cities had come to him, he discoursed in parables.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ And when a great multitude had assembled, and from all the cities had come to him, he discoursed in parables. ⁵ A sower went forth to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the road-side; and it was trodden down, and the fowl devoured it. ⁶ And other fell upon the rock; and it immediately sprang up, and, because it had no moisture, it withered. ⁷ And other fell among thorns, and they sprang up with it, and choked it. ⁸ And other fell into ground good and fair, and sprang up, and made fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these (words), he cried, Whoever hath ears to hear, let him hear.
