And again he began to teach by the sea side. And there is gathered unto him a very great multitude, so that he entered into a boat, and sat in the sea; and all the multitude were by the sea on the land.
4:2
대기
And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in his teaching,
4:3
대기
Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow:
4:4
대기
and it came to pass, as he sowed, some [seed] fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured it.
4:5
대기
And other fell on the rocky [ground], where it had not much earth; and straightway it sprang up, because it had no deepness of earth:
4:6
대기
and when the sun was risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
4:7
대기
And other fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
4:8
대기
And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
4:9
대기
And he said,Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
4:10
대기
And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parables.
4:11
대기
And he said unto them,Unto you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all things are done in parables:
4:12
대기
that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest haply they should turn again, and it should be forgiven them.
4:13
대기
And he saith unto them,Know ye not this parable? and how shall ye know all the parables?
4:14
대기
The sower soweth the word.
4:15
대기
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; and when they have heard, straightway cometh Satan, and taketh away the word which hath been sown in them.
4:16
대기
And these in like manner are they that are sown upon the rocky [places], who, when they have heard the word, straightway receive it with joy;
4:17
대기
and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway they stumble.
4:18
대기
And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they that have heard the word,
4:19
대기
and the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
4:20
대기
And those are they that were sown upon the good ground; such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
4:21
대기
And he said unto them,Is the lamp brought to be put under the bushel, or under the bed, [and] not to be put on the stand?
4:22
대기
For there is nothing hid, save that it should be manifested; neither was [anything] made secret, but that it should come to light.
4:23
대기
If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
4:24
대기
And he said unto them,Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete it shall be measured unto you; and more shall be given unto you.
4:25
대기
For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath.
4:26
대기
And he said,So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth;
4:27
대기
and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how.
4:28
대기
The earth beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
4:29
대기
But when the fruit is ripe, straightway he putteth forth the sickle, because the harvest is come.
4:30
대기
And he said,How shall we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable shall we set it forth?
4:31
대기
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, though it be less than all the seeds that are upon the earth,
4:32
대기
yet when it is sown, groweth up, and becometh greater than all the herbs, and putteth out great branches; so that the birds of the heaven can lodge under the shadow thereof.
4:33
대기
And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it;
4:34
대기
and without a parable spake he not unto them: but privately to his own disciples he expounded all things.
4:35
대기
And on that day, when even was come, he saith unto them,Let us go over unto the other side.
4:36
대기
And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
4:37
대기
And there ariseth a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, insomuch that the boat was now filling.
4:38
대기
And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, Teacher, carest thou not that we perish?
4:39
대기
And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,Peace, be still.And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
4:40
대기
And he said unto them,Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith?
4:41
대기
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
