< Matthew 13 >

1 In (now *k) the day that having gone forth Jesus (from *k) [from] the house was sitting by the sea. 2 And were gathered together to Him crowds great so that He into a boat having climbed into to sit down, and all the crowd on the shore had stood. 3 And He spoke to them many things in parables saying; Behold went out the [one] sowing to sow. 4 And in the sowing of him some indeed fell along the road, and (having come *N+k+o) the birds (and *ko) devoured them. 5 Other now fell upon the rocky places where not it was having soil much, and immediately it sprang up through not having depth of soil. 6 when [the] sun now having risen they were scorched, and through the not having root were dried up. 7 Other now fell upon the thorns, and grew up the thorns and (choked *N+kO) them. 8 Other now fell upon the soil good and were yielding fruit, some indeed a hundredfold, some however sixty, some however thirty. 9 The [one] having ears (to hear *ko) he should hear. 10 And having come the disciples said to Him; Because of why in parables speak You to them? 11 And answering He said to them; Because to you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, to them however not it has been granted. 12 Whoever for has, will be given to him and will be abundant [to him] whoever now not has, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 Because of this in parables to them I speak Because seeing not do they see and hearing not do they hear nor do they understand. 14 And is fulfilled (concerning *k) them the prophecy of Isaiah who is saying: In hearing you will hear and certainly not may understand, and looking you will look and certainly not may perceive. 15 Has grown dull for the heart of the people this, and with the ears barely they have heard, and the eyes of them they have closed; otherwise otherwise they may see with the eyes and with the ears they may hear and with the heart they may understand and may return and (I will heal *N+kO) them.’ 16 Of you however blessed [are] the eyes because they see and the ears of you because (they hear. *N+kO) 17 Amen for I say to you that many prophets and righteous [men] longed to see what you see, and not saw, and to hear what you hear, and not heard. 18 You yourselves therefore do hear the parable of the [one] (having sown: *N+kO) 19 Everyone hearing the word of the kingdom and not understanding comes the evil one and snatches away that having been sown in the heart of him; This is the [one] on the path having been sown. 20 That which now upon the rocky places having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing and immediately with joy receiving it. 21 no he has now root in himself but temporary is. when is coming however tribulation or persecution on account of the word immediately he falls away. 22 That which now among the thorns having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing, and the care of the age (this *ko) and the deceit of riches choke the word, and unfruitful it becomes. (aiōn g165) 23 That however on the good soil having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing and understanding, who indeed brings forth fruit and produces — some indeed a hundredfold, some however sixty, some however thirty. 24 Another parable put He before them saying; Has become like the kingdom of the heavens a man (having sown *N+kO) good seed in the field of him. 25 In now the [time] to sleep the men came his enemy and (over-sowed *N+kO) weeds in [the] midst of the wheat and went away. 26 When now sprouted the plants and fruit produced, then appeared also the weeds. 27 Having come to [him] now the servants of the master of the house said to him; Sir, surely good seed did you sow in your field? How then has it (the *k) weeds? 28 He then was saying to them; An enemy a man this did. And the servants (they say *N+kO) to him: Do you desire then [that] having gone forth (we shall gather *NK+o) them? 29 And (he says; *N+kO) No, lest when lest when gathering the weeds you may uproot together [with] them the wheat. 30 do allow to grow together both (until *N+kO) the harvest; and in (the *k) time of the harvest I will say to the harvesters; do gather first the weeds and do bind them into bundles in order to burn them; and the wheat (do gather together *NK+o) into the barn of mine.’ 31 Another parable put He before them saying; Like is the kingdom of the heavens to a grain of mustard, which having taken a man sowed in the field of him; 32 which smallest indeed is of all the seeds, when however it may be grown, greater than the garden plants it is and becomes a tree so that to come the birds of the air and perching in the branches of it. 33 Another parable spoke He to them: Like is the kingdom of the heavens to leaven, which having taken a woman (hid *NK+o) in of flour measures three until of it was leavened all. 34 These things all spoke Jesus in parables to the crowds and without a parable (no [thing] *N+kO) He was speaking to them, 35 so that may be fulfilled that having been spoken through the prophet saying; I will open in parables the mouth of Mine, I will utter [things] hidden from [the] foundation [of the] world. 36 Then having dismissed the crowds He went into the house (Jesus. *k) And came to Him the disciples of Him saying; (do explain *N+kO) to us the parable of the weeds of the field. 37 And answering He said (to them: *k) The [One] sowing the good seed is the Son of Man; 38 and the field is the world; and [the] good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the weeds are the sons of the evil [one]; 39 and the enemy which having sown them is the devil; and the harvest [the] consummation (of the *k) age is; and the harvesters angels are. (aiōn g165) 40 As therefore is gathered the weeds and in fire (is burned up, *NK+o) thus it will be in the consummation of the age (this. *k) (aiōn g165) 41 Will send forth the Son of Man the angels of Him, and they will gather out of the kingdom of Him all the causes of sin and those practicing lawlessness 42 and they will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of the Father of them. The [one] having ears (to hear *ko) he should hear. 44 (again *k) Like is the kingdom of the heavens to treasure hidden in the field, which having found a man hid. and for the joy of it goes and he sells all as much as he has and buys the field that. 45 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a man a merchant seeking fine pearls. 46 (who *k) having found (now *no) one very precious pearl, having gone away he has sold all things as much as he was having and he bought it. 47 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a dragnet having been cast into the sea and of every kind having gathered together, 48 which when it was filled having drawn up on the shore and having sat down they collected the good into (vessels, *N+kO) the and bad out they cast. 49 Thus will it be in the consummation of the age; will go out the angels and will separate the evil from [the] midst of the righteous (aiōn g165) 50 and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; There will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth. 51 (says to them Jesus *k) Did you understand these things all? They say to Him; Yes (Lord. *k) 52 He then said to them; Because of this every scribe having been discipled (into *k) ([in] the kingdom *N+kO) of the heavens like is to a man a master of a house who puts forth out of the treasure of him [things] new and old. 53 And it came to pass when finished Jesus parables these, He withdrew from there; 54 And having come into the region of Him He was teaching them in the synagogue of them so that to be astonished they and to say: From where [came] to this [man] wisdom this and the miraculous powers? 55 Surely this is the of the carpenter Son? (Surely *N+kO) the mother of Him is named Mary? And the brothers of Him James and (Joseph *N+kO) and Simon and Judas? 56 And the sisters of Him surely all with us are? From where then to this [man] these things all? 57 And they were offended at Him. But Jesus said to them; Not is a prophet without Honor only except in the hometown (of him *k) and in the household of him. 58 And not He did there miracles many because of the unbelief of them.
