Matthew 13:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 On that day after Jesus went out of the house, he sat by the lake.
2 And such a large crowd gathered around him that he got into a boat to sit while the whole crowd stood on the shore.
3 He told them many things in parables, saying: "Listen! A sower went out to sow.
4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground where they did not have much soil. They sprang up quickly because the soil was not deep.
6 But when the sun came up, they were scorched, and because they did not have sufficient root, they withered.
7 Other seeds fell among the thorns, and they grew up and choked them.
8 But other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 The one who has ears had better listen!"
10 Then the disciples came to him and said, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"
11 He replied, "You have been given the opportunity to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but they have not.
12 For whoever has will be given more, and will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.
13 For this reason I speak to them in parables: Although they see they do not see, and although they hear they do not hear nor do they understand.
14 And concerning them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says: 'You will listen carefully yet will never understand, you will look closely yet will never comprehend.
15 For the heart of this people has become dull; they are hard of hearing, and they have shut their eyes, so that they would not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.'
16 "But your eyes are blessed because they see, and your ears because they hear.
17 For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
18 "So listen to the parable of the sower:
19 When anyone hears the word about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches what was sown in his heart; this is the seed sown along the path.
20 The seed sown on rocky ground is the person who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy.
21 But he has no root in himself and does not endure; when trouble or persecution comes because of the word, immediately he falls away.
22 The seed sown among thorns is the person who hears the word, but worldly cares and the seductiveness of wealth choke the word, so it produces nothing.
23 But as for the seed sown on good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands. He bears fruit, yielding a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown."
24 He presented them with another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a person who sowed good seed in his field.
25 But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.
26 When the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.
27 So the slaves of the owner came and said to him, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?'
28 He said, 'An enemy has done this.' So the slaves replied, 'Do you want us to go and gather them?'
29 But he said, 'No, since in gathering the weeds you may uproot the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned, but then gather the wheat into my barn."'"
31 He gave them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.
32 It is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest garden plant and becomes a tree, so that the wild birds come and nest in its branches."
33 He told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen."
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the crowds; he did not speak to them without a parable.
35 This fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will announce what has been hidden from the foundation of the world."
36 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him saying, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field."
37 He answered, "The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.
38 The field is the world and the good seed are the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one,
39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
40 As the weeds are collected and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of the age.
41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom everything that causes sin as well as all lawbreakers.
42 They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. The one who has ears had better listen!
44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure, hidden in a field, that a person found and hid. Then because of joy he went and sold all that he had and bought that field.
45 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls.
46 When he found a pearl of great value, he went out and sold everything he had and bought it.
47 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea that caught all kinds of fish.
48 When it was full, they pulled it ashore, sat down, and put the good fish into containers and threw the bad away.
49 It will be this way at the end of the age. Angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous
50 and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51 "Have you understood all these things?" They replied, "Yes."
52 Then he said to them, "Therefore every expert in the law who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his treasure what is new and old."
53 Now when Jesus finished these parables, he moved on from there.
54 Then he came to his hometown and began to teach the people in their synagogue. They were astonished and said, "Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?
55 Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother named Mary? And aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
56 And aren't all his sisters here with us? Where did he get all this?"
57 And so they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own house."
58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
1 The same G1565 day G2250 went G1831 Jesus G2424 out of G575 the G3588 house, G3614 and G2532 sat G2521 by G3844 the G3588 sea side. G2281
2 And G2532 great G4183 multitudes G3793 were gathered together G4863 unto G4314 him, G846 so that G5620 he G846 went G1684 into G1519 a ship, G4143 and sat; G2521 and G2532 the G3588 whole G3956 multitude G3793 stood G2476 on G1909 the G3588 shore. G123
3 And G2532 he spake G2980 many things G4183 unto them G846 in G1722 parables, G3850 saying, G3004 Behold, G2400 a sower G4687 went forth G1831 to sow; G4687
4 And G2532 when he G846 sowed, G4687 some G3739 G3303 seeds fell G4098 by G3844 the G3588 way side, G3598 and G2532 the G3588 fowls G4071 came G2064 and G2532 devoured them up G2719 G846 :
5 G1161 Some G243 fell G4098 upon G1909 stony places, G4075 where G3699 they had G2192 not G3756 much G4183 earth: G1093 and G2532 forthwith G2112 they sprung up, G1816 because they had G2192 no G3361 deepness G899 of earth: G1093
6 And G1161 when the sun G2246 was up, G393 they were scorched; G2739 and G2532 because they had G2192 no G3361 root, G4491 they withered away. G3583
7 And G1161 some G243 fell G4098 among G1909 thorns; G173 and G2532 the G3588 thorns G173 sprung up, G305 and G2532 choked G638 them: G846
8 But G1161 other G243 fell G4098 into G1909 good G2570 ground, G1093 and G2532 brought forth G1325 fruit, G2590 some G3739 G3303 a hundredfold G1540 G1161 , some G3739 sixtyfold G1835 G1161 , some G3739 thirtyfold. G5144
9 Who hath G2192 ears G3775 to hear, G191 let him hear. G191
10 And G2532 the G3588 disciples G3101 came, G4334 and said G2036 unto him, G846 Why G1302 speakest G2980 thou unto them G846 in G1722 parables G3850 ?
11 G1161 He G3588 answered G611 and said G2036 unto them, G846 Because G3754 it is given G1325 unto you G5213 to know G1097 the G3588 mysteries G3466 of the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven, G3772 but G1161 to them G1565 it is not G3756 given. G1325
12 For G1063 whosoever G3748 hath, G2192 to him G846 shall be given, G1325 and G2532 he shall have more abundance: G4052 but G1161 whosoever G3748 hath G2192 not, G3756 from G575 him G846 shall be taken away G142 even G2532 that G3739 he hath. G2192
13 Therefore G1223 G5124 speak G2980 I to them G846 in G1722 parables: G3850 because G3754 they seeing G991 see G991 not; G3756 and G2532 hearing G191 they hear G191 not, G3756 neither G3761 do they understand. G4920
14 And G2532 in G1909 them G846 is fulfilled G378 the G3588 prophecy G4394 of Isaiah, G2268 which saith, G3004 By hearing G189 ye shall hear, G191 and G2532 shall not G3364 understand; G4920 and G2532 seeing G991 ye shall see, G991 and G2532 shall not G3364 perceive: G1492
15 For G1063 this G5127 people's G2992 heart G2588 is waxed gross, G3975 and G2532 their ears G3775 are dull of hearing G191 G917 , and G2532 their G848 eyes G3788 they have closed; G2576 lest at any time G3379 they should see G1492 with their eyes, G3778 and G2532 hear G191 with their ears, G3775 and G2532 should understand G4920 with their heart, G2588 and G2532 should be converted, G1994 and G2532 I should heal G2390 them. G846
16 But G1161 blessed G3107 are your G5216 eyes, G3778 for G3754 they see: G991 and G2532 your G5216 ears, G3775 for G3754 they hear. G191
17 For G1063 verily G281 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 That G3754 many G4183 prophets G4396 and G2532 righteous G1342 men have desired G1937 to see G1492 those things which G3739 ye see, G991 and G2532 have not G3756 seen G1492 them ; and G2532 to hear G191 those things which G3739 ye hear, G191 and G2532 have not G3756 heard G191 them.
18 Hear G191 ye G5210 therefore G3767 the G3588 parable G3850 of the G3588 sower. G4687
19 When any one G3956 heareth G191 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 kingdom, G932 and G2532 understandeth G4920 it not, G3361 then cometh G2064 the G3588 wicked G4190 one, and G2532 catcheth away G726 that which was sown G4687 in G1722 his G846 heart. G2588 This G3778 is G2076 he which received seed G4687 by G3844 the G3588 way side. G3598
20 But G1161 he that received the seed G4687 into G1909 stony places, G4075 the same G3778 is G2076 he that heareth G191 the G3588 word, G3056 and G2532 anon G2117 with G3326 joy G5479 receiveth G2983 it; G846
21 Yet G1161 hath G2192 he not G3756 root G4491 in G1722 himself, G1438 but G235 endureth for a while G2076 G4340 : for G1161 when tribulation G2347 or G2228 persecution G1375 ariseth G1096 because G1223 of the G3588 word, G3056 by and by G2117 he is offended. G4624
22 He also that received seed G4687 G1161 among G1519 the G3588 thorns G173 G3778 is G2076 he that heareth G191 the G3588 word; G3056 and G2532 the G3588 care G3308 of this G5127 world, G165 and G2532 the G3588 deceitfulness G539 of riches, G4149 choke G4846 the G3588 word, G3056 and G2532 he becometh G1096 unfruitful. G175
23 But G1161 he that received seed G4687 into G1909 the G3588 good G2570 ground G1093 is G2076 he that heareth G191 the G3588 word, G3056 and G2532 understandeth G4920 it ; which G3739 also G1211 beareth fruit, G2592 and G2532 bringeth forth, G4160 some G3588 G3303 a hundredfold G1540 G1161 some G3588 sixty G1835 G1161 , some G3588 thirty. G5144
24 Another G243 parable G3850 put he forth G3908 unto them, G846 saying, G3004 The G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is likened unto G3666 a man G444 which sowed G4687 good G2570 seed G4690 in G1722 his G848 field: G68
25 But G1161 while men G444 slept, G2518 his G846 enemy G2190 came G2064 and G2532 sowed G4687 tares G2215 among G303 G3319 the G3588 wheat, G4621 and G2532 went his way. G565
26 But G1161 when G3753 the G3588 blade G5528 was sprung up, G985 and G2532 brought forth G4160 fruit, G2590 then G5119 appeared G5316 the G3588 tares G2215 also. G2532
27 So G1161 the G3588 servants G1401 of the G3588 householder G3617 came G4334 and said G2036 unto him, G846 Sir, G2962 didst not G3780 thou sow G4687 good G2570 seed G4690 in G1722 thy G4674 field G68 ? from whence G4159 then G3767 hath G2192 it tares G2215 ?
28 G1161 He G3588 said G5346 unto them, G846 An G444 enemy G2190 hath done G4160 this. G5124 The G3588 servants G1401 said G2036 unto him, G846 Wilt G2309 thou then G3767 that we go G565 and G2532 gather them up G4816 G846 ?
29 But G1161 he G3588 said, G5346 Nay; G3756 lest G3379 while ye gather up G4816 the G3588 tares, G2215 ye root up G1610 also the G3588 wheat G4621 with G260 them. G846
30 Let G863 both G297 grow together G4885 until G3360 the G3588 harvest: G2326 and G2532 in G1722 the G3588 time G2540 of harvest G2326 I will say G2046 to the G3588 reapers, G2327 Gather ye together G4816 first G4412 the G3588 tares, G2215 and G2532 bind G1210 them G846 in G1519 bundles G1197 to burn G2618 them: G846 but G1161 gather G4863 the G3588 wheat G4621 into G1519 my G3450 barn. G596
31 Another G243 parable G3850 put he forth G3908 unto them, G846 saying, G3004 The G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like to G3664 a grain G2848 of mustard seed, G4615 which G3739 a man G444 took, G2983 and G2532 sowed G4687 in G1722 his G846 field: G68
32 Which G3739 indeed G3303 is G2076 the least G3398 of all G3956 seeds: G4690 but G1161 when G3752 it is grown, G837 it is G2076 the greatest G3187 among herbs, G3001 and G2532 becometh G1096 a tree, G1186 so that G5620 the G3588 birds G4071 of the G3588 air G3772 come G2064 and G2532 lodge G2681 in G1722 the G3588 branches G2798 thereof. G846
33 Another G243 parable G3850 spake G2980 he unto them; G846 The G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like unto G3664 leaven, G2219 which G3739 a woman G1135 took, G2983 and G2532 hid G1470 in G1519 three G5140 measures G4568 of meal, G224 till G2193 the G3739 whole G3650 was leavened. G2220
34 All G3956 these things G5023 spake G2980 Jesus G2424 unto the G3588 multitude G3793 in G1722 parables; G3850 and G2532 without G5565 a parable G3850 spake G2980 he not G3756 unto them: G846
35 That G3704 it might be fulfilled G4137 which was spoken G4483 by G1223 the G3588 prophet, G4396 saying, G3004 I will open G455 my G3450 mouth G4750 in G1722 parables; G3850 I will utter G2044 things which have been kept secret G2928 from G575 the foundation G2602 of the world. G2889
36 Then G5119 Jesus G2424 sent the multitude away G863 G3588, G3793 and went G2064 into G1519 the G3588 house: G3614 and G2532 his G846 disciples G3101 came G4334 unto him, G846 saying, G3004 Declare G5419 unto us G2254 the G3588 parable G3850 of the G3588 tares G2215 of the G3588 field. G68
37 G1161 He G3588 answered G611 and said G2036 unto them, G846 He that soweth G4687 the G3588 good G2570 seed G4690 is G2076 the G3588 Son G5207 of man; G444
38 G1161 The G3588 field G68 is G2076 the G3588 world; G2889 the G3588 good G2570 seed G4690 are G3778 G1526 the G3588 children G5207 of the G3588 kingdom; G932 but G1161 the G3588 tares G2215 are G1526 the G3588 children G5207 of the G3588 wicked G4190 one ;
39 G1161 The G3588 enemy G2190 that sowed G4687 them G846 is G2076 the G3588 devil; G1228 the G3588 harvest G2326 is G2076 the end G4930 of the G3588 world; G165 and G2532 the G3588 reapers G2327 are G1526 the angels. G32
40 As G5618 therefore G3767 the G3588 tares G2215 are gathered G4816 and G2532 burned G2618 in the fire; G4442 so G3779 shall it be G2071 in G1722 the G3588 end G4930 of this G5127 world. G165
41 The G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 shall send forth G649 his G846 angels, G32 and G2532 they shall gather G4816 out of G1537 his G848 kingdom G932 all things G3956 that offend, G4625 and G2532 them which do G4160 iniquity; G458
42 And G2532 shall cast G906 them G846 into G1519 a furnace G2575 of fire: G4442 there G1563 shall be G2071 wailing G2805 and G2532 gnashing G1030 of teeth. G3599
43 Then G5119 shall the G3588 righteous G1342 shine forth G1584 as G5613 the G3588 sun G2246 in G1722 the G3588 kingdom G932 of their G848 Father. G3962 Who hath G2192 ears G3775 to hear, G191 let him hear. G191
44 Again, G3825 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like unto G3664 treasure G2344 hid G2928 in G1722 a field; G68 the which G3739 when a man G444 hath found, G2147 he hideth, G2928 and G2532 for G575 joy G5479 thereof G846 goeth G5217 and G2532 selleth G4453 all G3956 that G3745 he hath, G2192 and G2532 buyeth G59 that G1565 field. G68
45 Again, G3825 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like unto G3664 a merchant G1713 man, G444 seeking G2212 goodly G2570 pearls: G3135
46 Who, G3739 when he had found G2147 one G1520 pearl G3135 of great price, G4186 went G565 and sold G4097 all G3956 that G3745 he had, G2192 and G2532 bought G59 it. G846
47 Again, G3825 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like unto G3664 a net, G4522 that was cast G906 into G1519 the G3588 sea, G2281 and G2532 gathered G4863 of G1537 every G3956 kind: G1085
48 Which, G3739 when G3753 it was full, G4137 they drew G307 to G1909 shore, G123 and G2532 sat down, G2523 and gathered G4816 the G3588 good G2570 into G1519 vessels, G30 but G1161 cast G906 the G3588 bad G4550 away. G1854
49 So G3779 shall it be G2071 at G1722 the G3588 end G4930 of the G3588 world: G165 the G3588 angels G32 shall come forth, G1831 and G2532 sever G873 the G3588 wicked G4190 from G1537 among G3319 the G3588 just, G1342
50 And G2532 shall cast G906 them G846 into G1519 the G3588 furnace G2575 of fire: G4442 there G1563 shall be G2071 wailing G2805 and G2532 gnashing G1030 of teeth. G3599
51 Jesus G2424 saith G3004 unto them, G846 Have ye understood G4920 all G3956 these things? They G5023 say G3004 unto him, G846 Yea, G3483 Lord. G2962
52 Then G1161 said G2036 he G3588 unto them, G846 Therefore G1223 G5124 every G3956 scribe G1122 which is instructed G3100 unto G1519 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 is G2076 like unto G3664 a man G444 that is a householder, G3617 which G3748 bringeth forth G1544 out G1537 of his G848 treasure G2344 things new G2537 and G2532 old. G3820
53 And G2532 it came to pass, G1096 that when G3753 Jesus G2424 had finished G5055 these G5025 parables, G3850 he departed G3332 thence. G1564
54 And G2532 when he was come G2064 into G1519 his own G848 country, G3968 he taught G1321 them G846 in G1722 their G846 synagogue, G4864 insomuch that G5620 they G846 were astonished, G1605 and G2532 said, G3004 Whence G4159 hath this G5129 man this G3778 wisdom, G4678 and G2532 these mighty works G1411 ?
55 Is G2076 not G3756 this G3778 the G3588 carpenter's G5045 son G5207 ? is not G3780 his G846 mother G3384 called G3004 Mary G3137 ? and G2532 his G846 brethren, G80 James, G2385 and G2532 Joses, G2500 and G2532 Simon, G4613 and G2532 Judas G2455 ?
56 And G2532 his G846 sisters, G79 are G1526 they not G3780 all G3956 with G4314 us G2248 ? Whence G4159 then G3767 hath this G5129 man all G3956 these things G5023 ?
57 And G2532 they were offended G4624 in G1722 him. G846 But G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 unto them, G846 A prophet G4396 is G2076 not G3756 without honor, G820 save G1508 in G1722 his own G848 country, G3968 and G2532 in G1722 his own G848 house. G3614
58 And G2532 he did G4160 not G3756 many G4183 mighty works G1411 there G1563 because G1223 of their G846 unbelief. G570
