Mark 4:1-9 And be began again to teach by the sea-side: and there was gathered unto him much people, so that he entred into a ship, and sat beyond the sea, and the whole multitude was beyond the sea.

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And be began again to teach by the sea-side: and there was gathered unto him much people, so that he entred into a ship, and sat beyond the sea, and the whole multitude was beyond the sea. ² And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in his doctrine, ³ Hearken, behold, there went out a sower: ⁴ And it came to pass as he sowed, some fell by the way-side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it. ⁵ And others fell on stony grounds, and because they had not much earth, immediately they sprang up because they had no depth of earth. ⁶ And when the sun was up, they were scorched, and because they had no root, they withered away. ⁷ And others fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked them, and it yielded no fruit. ⁸ And others fell on good ground, and did yield fruit, that sprang up and increased, and brought forth some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred. ⁹ And he said, He hath ears to hear, let him hear, and he that hath understanding let him understand.
