Mark 4:1-9

JuliaSmith(i) 1 And again he began to teach by the sea: and a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that he, having gone into the ship, sat in the sea; and all the crowd was by the sea upon land. 2 And he taught them in parables many things, and said to them in his teaching, 3 Hear ye; behold, he sowing went out to sow: 4 And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down. 5 And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth: 6 And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and because it had no root, it was dried up. 7 And other fell in thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit. 8 And other fell in good earth, and gave fruit coming up and increasing; and one brought thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. 9 And he said to them, He having ears to hear, let him hear.
