Matthew - Chapter: 13


13:1	That same day Jesus went out of the house, and sat beside the sea.
13:2	And large crowds were gathered about Him, so that He got into a boat, and sat; and the entire crowd stood on the shore.
13:3	Then He spoke many things to them in parables, saying: "Behold, a sower went out to sow."
13:4	And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side; and the birds came and devoured them."
13:5	Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth."
13:6	But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered away."
13:7	And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprung up and choked them."
13:8	But others fell into good ground and bore fruit: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."
13:9	He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
13:10	And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"
13:11	He answered and said to them, "Because, it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given."
13:12	Because whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him."
13:13	Therefore I speak to them in parables, because, seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand."
13:14	And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: 'By hearing you will hear, and will not understand, and seeing you will see, and will not perceive;"
13:15	because the hearts of this people have grown dull, their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their hearts and would be converted, so that I should heal them.'"
13:16	But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear;"
13:17	because truly, I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which you see, and did not see it, and hear those things which you hear, and did not hear it."
13:18	"Therefore all of you, hear the parable of the sower:"
13:19	When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the one which received seed by the wayside."
13:20	But he who received the seed on stony places, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;"
13:21	yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. Because when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles."
13:22	Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the worries of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful."
13:23	But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who also bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."
13:24	He put before them another parable, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;"
13:25	but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way."
13:26	So when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared."
13:27	So the servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'"
13:28	He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, 'Do you want us then to go and gather them up?'"
13:29	But he said, 'No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them."
13:30	Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
13:31	He put before them another parable, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, that a man took and sowed in his field,"
13:32	which indeed is the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches."
13:33	He spoke another parable to them: "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid inside three measures of flour until it was all leavened."
13:34	Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables; and He did not speak to them without a parable,
13:35	that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying: "I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret since the foundation of the world."
13:36	Then Jesus sent the crowd away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."
13:37	He replied and said to them: "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man."
13:38	The field is the world, the good seed are the children of the kingdom, but the tares are the children of the wicked one."
13:39	The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels."
13:40	Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age."
13:41	The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that cause offense, and those who practice iniquity,"
13:42	and will throw them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth."
13:43	Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
13:44	"Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which when a man finds, he hides; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field."
13:45	"Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant man seeking choice pearls,"
13:46	who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it."
13:47	"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind,"
13:48	which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away."
13:49	So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just,"
13:50	and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
13:51	Jesus said to them, "Have you understood all these things?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord."
13:52	Then He said to them, "Therefore every scribe which is instructed concerning the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a householder who brings out of his treasure things new and old."
13:53	Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, that He departed from there.
13:54	And when He had come to His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, "Where did this Man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
13:55	Is this not the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary? And His brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
13:56	And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?"
13:57	So they were offended at Him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house."
13:58	So He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.


13:1	The same day went Iesus out of the house, and sate by the sea side.
13:2	And great multitudes resorted vnto him, so that he went into a ship, and sate downe: and the whole multitude stoode on the shore.
13:3	Then he spake many things to them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sowe.
13:4	And as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the foules came and deuoured them vp.
13:5	And some fell vpon stony grounde, where they had not much earth, and anon they sprong vp, because they had no depth of earth.
13:6	And when the sunne was vp, they were parched, and for lacke of rooting, withered away.
13:7	And some fell among thornes, and the thornes sprong vp, and choked them.
13:8	Some againe fel in good ground, and brought forth fruite, one corne an hundreth folde, some sixtie folde, and another thirtie folde.
13:9	He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.
13:10	Then the disciples came, and said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables?
13:11	And he answered, and said vnto them, Because it is giuen vnto you, to know the secretes of the kingdome of heauen, but to the it is not giue.
13:12	For whosoeuer hath, to him shalbe giuen, and he shall haue abundance: but whosoeuer hath not, from him shalbe taken away, euen that he hath.
13:13	Therefore speake I to them in parables, because they seeing, doe not see: and hearing, they heare not, neither vnderstand.
13:14	So in them is fulfilled the prophecie of Esaias, which prophecie saieth, By hearing, ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand, and seeing, ye shall see, and shall not perceiue.
13:15	For this peoples heart is waxed fat, and their eares are dull of hearing, and with their eyes they haue winked, lest they should see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and should vnderstand with their hearts, and should returne, that I might heale them.
13:16	But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your eares, for they heare.
13:17	For verely I say vnto you, that many Prophets, and righteous men haue desired to see those things which ye see, and haue not seene them, and to heare those things which ye heare, and haue not heard them.
13:18	Heare ye therefore ye parable of ye sower.
13:19	Whensoeuer any man heareth the woorde of that kingdome, and vnderstandeth it not, that euil one commeth, and catcheth away that which was sowen in his heart: and this is he which hath receiued the seede by the way side.
13:20	And hee that receiued seede in the stonie grounde, is he which heareth the woorde, and incontinently with ioy receiueth it,
13:21	Yet hath he no roote in himselfe, and dureth but a season: for assoone as tribulation or persecution commeth because of the woorde, by and by he is offended.
13:22	And hee that receiued the seede among thornes, is hee that heareth the woorde: but the care of this worlde, and the deceitfulnesse of riches choke the word, and he is made vnfruitfull.
13:23	But he that receiued the seede in the good ground, is he that heareth the worde, and vnderstandeth it, which also beareth fruite, and bringeth foorth, some an hundreth folde, some sixtie folde, and some thirtie folde.
13:24	Another parable put hee foorth vnto them, saying, The kingdome of heauen is like vnto a man which sowed good seede in his fielde.
13:25	But while men slept, there came his enemie, and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his waie.
13:26	And when the blade was sprong vp, and brought forth fruite, then appeared the tares also.
13:27	Then came the seruaunts of the housholder, and sayd vnto him, Master, sowedst not thou good seede in thy fielde? from whence then hath it tares?
13:28	And hee said to them, Some enuious man hath done this. Then the seruants saide vnto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them vp?
13:29	But he saide, Nay, lest while yee goe about to gather the tares, yee plucke vp also with them the wheat.
13:30	Let both growe together vntill the haruest, and in time of haruest I will say to the reapers, Gather yee first the tares, and binde them in sheaues to burne them: but gather the wheate into my barne.
13:31	Another parable he put foorth vnto them, saying, The kingdome of heauen is like vnto a graine of mustard seede, which a man taketh and soweth in his fielde:
13:32	Which in deede is the least of all seedes: but when it is growen, it is the greatest among herbes, and it is a tree, so that the birdes of heauen come and builde in the branches thereof.
13:33	Another parable spake hee to them, The kingdome of heauen is like vnto leauen, which a woman taketh and hideth in three pecks of meale, till all be leauened.
13:34	All these thinges spake Iesus vnto the multitude in parables, and without parables spake he not to them,
13:35	That it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the Prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables, and will vtter the thinges which haue beene kept secrete from the foundation of the worlde.
13:36	Then sent Iesus the multitude away, and went into the house. And his disciples came vnto him, saying, Declare vnto vs the parable of the tares of that fielde.
13:37	Then answered he, and saide to them, He that soweth the good seede, is the Sonne of man.
13:38	And the field is the worlde, and the good seede are the children of the kingdome, and the tares are the children of that wicked one.
13:39	And the enemie that soweth them, is the deuill, and the haruest is the end of the worlde, and the reapers be the Angels.
13:40	As then the tares are gathered and burned in ye fire, so shall it be in the end of this world.
13:41	The Sonne of man shall send forth his Angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which doe iniquitie,
13:42	And shall cast them into a fornace of fire. There shalbe wailing and gnashing of teeth.
13:43	Then shall the iust men shine as ye sunne in the kingdome of their Father. Hee that hath eares to heare, let him heare.
13:44	Againe, the kingdom of heauen is like vnto a treasure hid in ye field, which when a man hath found, he hideth it, and for ioy thereof departeth and selleth all that he hath, and buieth that field.
13:45	Againe, the kingdome of heauen is like to a marchant man, that seeketh good pearles,
13:46	Who hauing found a pearle of great price, went and solde all that he had, and bought it.
13:47	Againe, the kingdom of heauen is like vnto a drawe net cast into the sea, that gathereth of all kindes of things.
13:48	Which, when it is full, men draw to lande, and sit and gather the good into vessels, and cast the bad away.
13:49	So shall it be at the end of the world. The Angels shall goe foorth, and seuer the bad from among the iust,
13:50	And shall cast them into a fornace of fire: there shalbe wailing, and gnashing of teeth.
13:51	Iesus saide vnto them, Vnderstand yee all these things? They saide vnto him, Yea, Lord.
13:52	Then sayd hee vnto them, Therefore euery Scribe which is taught vnto the kingdome of heauen, is like vnto an householder, which bringeth foorth out of his treasure things both newe and olde.
13:53	And it came to passe, that when Iesus had ended these parables, he departed thence,
13:54	And came into his owne countrey, and taught them in their Synagogue, so that they were astonied, and saide, Whence commeth this wisdome and great woorkes vnto this man?
13:55	Is not this the carpenters sonne? Is not his mother called Marie, and his brethren Iames and Ioses, and Simon and Iudas?
13:56	And are not his sisters all with vs? Whence then hath he all these things?
13:57	And they were offended with him. Then Iesus said to them, A Prophet is not without honour, saue in his owne countrey, and in his owne house.
13:58	And he did not many great woorkes there, for their vnbeliefes sake.


13:1	The same daye wet Iesus out of ye house and sat by the seesyde
13:2	and moch people resorted vnto him so gretly yt he wet and sat in a shippe and all the people stode on ye shoore.
13:3	And he spake many thynges to the in similitudes sayinge: Beholde ye sower wet forth to sowe.
13:4	And as he sowed some fell by ye wayessyde and the fowlles came and devoured it vp.
13:5	Some fell apo stony groude where it had not moche erth and a none it sproge vp because it had no depth of erth:
13:6	and when ye sunne was vp it cauht heet and for lake of rotynge wyddred awaye.
13:7	Some fell amoge thornes and the thornes sproge vp and chooked it.
13:8	Parte fell in good groud and brought forth good frute: some an hudred fold some sixtie fold some thyrty folde.
13:9	Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.
13:10	And the disciples came and sayde to him: Why speakest thou to the in parables?
13:11	He answered and sayde vnto them: it is geve vnto you to knowe ye secretes of the kyngdome of heve but to the it is not geve.
13:12	For whosoever hath to him shall be geven: and he shall have aboundance. But whosoever hath not: fro hym shalbe takyn awaye even that he hath.
13:13	Therfore speake I to them in similitudes: for though they se they se not: and hearinge they heare not: nether vnderstonde.
13:14	And in the is fulfilled ye Prophesie of Esayas which prophesie sayth: with the eares ye shall heare and shall not vnderstonde and with the eyes ye shall se and shall not perceave.
13:15	For this peoples hertes are wexed grosse and their eares were dull of herynge and their eyes have they closed lest they shulde se with their eyes and heare with their eares and shuld vnderstonde with their hertes and shuld tourne that I myght heale them.
13:16	But blessed are youre eyes for they se: and youre eares for they heare.
13:17	Verely I say vnto you that many Prophetes and perfaicte me have desired to se tho thinges which ye se and have not sene the: and to heare tho thinges which ye heare and have not herde the.
13:18	Heare ye therfore ye similitude of the sower.
13:19	Whosoever heareth the worde of ye kingdome and vnderstondeth it not ther cometh the evyll ma and catcheth awaye yt which was sowne in his hert. And this is he which was sowne by the wayesyde.
13:20	But he yt was sowne in ye stony groude is he which heareth the worde of God and anone wt ioye receaveth it
13:21	yet hath he no rottes in him selfe and therfore dureth but a season: for assone as tribulacion or persecucion aryseth because of the worde by and by he falleth.
13:22	He yt was sowne amoge thornes is he yt heareth ye worde of God: but the care of this worlde and the dissaytfulnes of ryches choke ye worde and so is he made vnfrutfull.
13:23	He which is sowne in ye good grounde is he yt heareth ye worde and vnderstodeth it which also bereth frute and bringeth forth some an.C. folde some sixtie folde and some .xxx. folde.
13:24	Another similitude put he forth vnto the sayinge: The kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a man which sowed good seed in his felde.
13:25	But whyll men slepte ther came his foo and sowed tares amoge ye wheate and wet his waye.
13:26	When ye blade was sproge vp and had brought forth frute the appered ye tares also.
13:27	The servauntes came to the housholder and sayde vnto him: Syr sowedest not thou good seed in thy closse fro whece the hath it tares?
13:28	He sayde to the the envious ma hath done this. Then ye servauntes sayde vnto him: wilt thou then yt we go and gader them?
13:29	But he sayde nay lest whill ye go aboute to wede out ye tares ye plucke vppe also wt them ye wheate by ye rottes:
13:30	let bothe growe to gether tyll harvest come and in tyme of harvest I wyll saye to the repers gather ye fyrst ye tares and bind the in sheves to be bret: but gather the wheete into my barne.
13:31	Another parable he put forthe vnto the sayinge. The kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a grayne of mustard seed which a ma taketh and soweth in his felde
13:32	which is ye leest of all seedes. But when it is groune it is the greatest amoge yerbes and it is a tree: so yt the bryddes of the ayer come and bylde in the brauches of it.
13:33	Another similitude sayde he to them. The kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto leve which a woman taketh and hydeth in .iii. peckes of meele tyll all be levended.
13:34	All these thynge spake Iesus vnto the people by similitudes and with oute similitudes spake he nothinge to them
13:35	to fulfyll that which was spoke by the Prophet sayinge: I wyll ope my mouth in similitudes and wyll speake forth thinges which have bene kepte secrete from the begynninge of the worlde.
13:36	Then sent Iesus ye people awaye and came to housse. And his disciples came vnto him sayinge: declare vnto vs the similitude of the tares of the felde.
13:37	Then answered he and sayde to them. He that soweth the good seed is the sonne of man.
13:38	And ye felde is the worlde. And the chyldre of the kingdome they are ye good seed. And the tares are the chyldren of ye wicked.
13:39	And the enemye that soweth the is ye devell. The harvest is ye end of the worlde. And the repers be ye angels.
13:40	For eve as the tares are gaddred and bret in ye fyre: so shall it be in ye ende of this worlde.
13:41	The sonne of man shall send forth his angels and they shall gather out of his kyngdome all thinges that offende and them which do iniquite
13:42	and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre. There shalbe waylynge and gnasshing of teth.
13:43	Then shall the iuste men shyne as bryght as the sunne in ye kyngdome of their father. Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.
13:44	Agayne ye kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto treasure hidde in the felde ye which a man fyndeth and hideth: and for ioy therof goeth and selleth all that he hath and byeth that felde.
13:45	Agayne ye kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a marchaunt that seketh good pearles
13:46	which when he had founde one precious pearle wet and solde all that he had and bought it.
13:47	Agayne the kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a neet cast into ye see yt gadereth of all kyndes of fysshes:
13:48	which whe it is full men drawe to londe and sitte and gadre the good into vessels and cast the bad awaye.
13:49	So shall it be at the ende of the worlde. The angels shall come oute and sever the bad from the good
13:50	and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre: there shalbe waylinge and gnasshynge of teth.
13:51	Iesus sayde vnto them: vnderstonde ye all these thynges? They sayde ye Lorde.
13:52	The sayde he vnto them: Therfore every scribe which is taught vnto the kyngdome of heve is lyke an housholder which bryngeth forth out of hys treasure thynges bothe new and olde.
13:53	And it came to passe when Iesus had finisshed these similitudes yt he departed thece
13:54	and came in to his awne coutre and taught them in their synagoges in so moche yt they were astonyed and sayde: whece cometh all this wysdome and power vnto him?
13:55	Is not this the carpeters sonne? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethre be called Iames and Ioses and Simo and Iudas?
13:56	And are not his susters all here wt vs? Whece hath he all these thynge.
13:57	And they were offended by him. The Iesus sayd to the a Prophet is not wt out honoure save in hys awne countre and amoge his awne kynne.
13:58	And he dyd not many miracles there for there vnbelefes sake.
