The Parable of the Sower
4 aAnd when a great multitude had gathered, and they had come to Him from every city, He spoke by a parable:
5 “A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trampled down, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Some fell on rock; and as soon as it sprang up, it withered away because it lacked moisture.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it.
8 But others fell on good ground, sprang up, and yielded1 a crop a hundredfold.” When He had said these things He cried, a“He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

9 aThen His disciples asked Him, saying, “What does this parable mean?”
