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

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

RKJNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ And he said, The kingdom of God is like a man who casts seed upon the ground; ²⁷ And goes to sleep and rises, night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows up, though he does not know how. ²⁸ For the earth brings forth fruit by itself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain in the ear. ²⁹ But when the grain is ripe, immediately he puts the sickle to it, because the harvest has come.
