| 13:1 | The same daye wente Iesus out of the house, and sate by the sea syde, |
| 13:2 | and much people resorted vnto hym, so greatly that he went and sate in a shyppe, and all the people stode on the shore. |
| 13:3 | And he spake many thinges to them in symilitudes, saying, beholde, the sower went forth to sowe. |
| 13:4 | And as he sowed, some fel by the wayes syde, and the foules came and deuoured it vp. |
| 13:5 | Some fell vpon stonye grounde where it hadde not muche earth: and anon it sprong vp, because it had no depth of earth: |
| 13:6 | & when the sunne was vp, it caughte heate, and for lacke of rotynge wyddred awaye. |
| 13:7 | Some fel among thornes, & the thornes sprong vp and chooked it. |
| 13:8 | Parte fell in good grounde, and brought forth good frute: some an hundred fold, some sixtie folde, some thyrty folde. |
| 13:9 | Whosoeuer hath eares to heare let hym heare. |
| 13:10 | And the disciples came and sayde to hym: Why speakest thou to them in parables? |
| 13:11 | He aunswered and sayde vnto theym: it is geuen vnto you to know the secretes of the kyngdom of heauen, but to them it is not geuen |
| 13:12 | For whosoeuer hath to hym shalbe geuen, and he shall haue aboundaunce. But whosoeuer hath not: from hym shalbe taken awaye euen that he hath. |
| 13:13 | Therfore speake I to them in similitudes: for though they se, they se not: and hearyng they heare not: neyther vnderstand. |
| 13:14 | And in them is fulfilled the Prophesye of Esayas, whych prophesie sayth: with the eares ye shal heare, and shal not vnderstande, and with the eyes ye shal se, and shall not perceyue. |
| 13:15 | For this people hertes are waxed grosse, and their eares were dull of hearynge, and their eyes haue they closed, lest they should se with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and shoulde vnderstand with their hertes, & should tourne that I myght heale them. |
| 13:16 | But blessed are your eyes, for they se: and your eares, for thei heare. |
| 13:17 | Verely I say vnto you, that many Prophetes and perfecte men haue desired to se the thinges whyche ye se, & haue not sene theim: and to heare the thynges which ye heare, and haue not heard them. |
| 13:18 | Heare ye therfore the similitude of the sower. |
| 13:19 | Whosoeuer heareth the word of the kyngedome and vnderstandeth it not, there cometh the euill man, and catcheth awaye that which was sowen in hys hert, and this is he whiche was sowen by the way side. |
| 13:20 | But he that was sowen in the stony grounde, is he which heareth the worde of God, and anone with ioye receyueth it, |
| 13:21 | yet hath he no rootes in hym selfe, and therefore dureth but a season. For assone as tribulation or persecucion ariseth because of the word, by and by he falleth. |
| 13:22 | He that was sowen among thornes, is he that heareth the worde of God: but the care of thys world, and the disceythfulnes of ryches choke the word, & so is he made vnfruteful. |
| 13:23 | But he whiche is sowen in the good ground, is he that heareth the worde and vnderstandeth it, whiche also beareth frute and bryngeth forth, some an .C. folde, some sixtye folde, and some .xxx. folde. |
| 13:24 | Another similitude put he forth vnto them saying: The kyngedom of heauen is lyke vnto a man whiche sowed good seede in hys felde. |
| 13:25 | But whyle men slept there came hys foo and sowed tares amonge the wheate, and went hys waye. |
| 13:26 | When the blade was spronge vp, and had brought forth frute, then apeared the tares also. |
| 13:27 | The seruauntes came to the housholder, and sayde vnto hym: Sir sowedest not thou good seede in thy close? From whence then hath it tared? |
| 13:28 | He sayed to them: The enuious man hath done this. Then the seruauntes sayde vnto hym. Wilt thou then that we go and gadder them? |
| 13:29 | But he sayde, nay, lest whyle ye go about to wede oute the tares, ye plucke vp also wyth them the wheat by the rotes. |
| 13:30 | Let both growe together tyl haruest come, & in tyme of haruest, I wyl saye to the reapers, gather ye fyrst the tares, & bynde theym in shewes too be brent: but gather the wheate into my barne. |
| 13:31 | Another parable he put forth vnto them saying: The kyngdom of heauen is lyke vnto a grayne of mustard seede, whiche a man taketh and soweth in hys felde, |
| 13:32 | whych is the leest of all seedes. But when it is growen it is the greatest among herbes, & it groweth vp into a tree: so that the byrdes of the ayre come and buylde in the braunches of it. |
| 13:33 | Another similitude sayde he to them. The kyngdom of heauen is lyke vnto leuen, which a woman taketh and hydeth in .iij. peckes of mele, tyll all be leuended. |
| 13:34 | All these thynges spake Iesus vnto the people by similitudes, and withoute similitudes spake he nothyng to them, |
| 13:35 | to fulfil that which was spoken by the Prophet saying: I wil open my mouth in similitudes, & will speake forth thynges whych haue ben kept secrete from the begynnyng of the world. |
| 13:36 | Then sente Iesus the people awaye, & came home. And hys disciples came vnto him sayinge: declare vnto vs the similitude of the tares of the felde. |
| 13:37 | Then aunswered he & sayed to them. He that soweth the good seede, is the sonne of man. |
| 13:38 | And the fielde is the worlde. And the chyldren of the kyngdom, they are the good seede. And the tares are the chyldren of the wycked. |
| 13:39 | And the enemy that soweth them is the deuell. The Haruest is the ende of the worlde. And the reapers be the Aungels. |
| 13:40 | For euen as the tares are gaddred and brent in the fyre: so shall it be in the ende of thys worlde. |
| 13:41 | The sonne of man shall sende forth hys Aungels, and they shall gather out of hys kyngedom all thynges that offende, and them whych do iniquity, |
| 13:42 | and shall caste theim into a fournayce of fyre. There shalbe waylyng & gnasshyng of teth. |
| 13:43 | Then shall the iuste men shyne as bryght as the sunne in the kyngdom of theyr father. Whosoeuer hath eares to heare let hym heare. |
| 13:44 | Agayne the kyngdome of heauen is lyke vnto treasure, hidde in the fielde, the whiche a man fyndeth and hyddeth: and for ioye therof goeth and selleth all that he hathe, and byeth that felde. |
| 13:45 | Agayne the kyngedome of heauen is lyke vnto a marchaunt that seketh good pearles, |
| 13:46 | whyche when he had founde one precious pearle, went and solde all that he hadde, and bought it. |
| 13:47 | Agayne the kyngedome of heauen is lyke vuto a nette cast into the sea, that gathered of all kyndes of fyshes: |
| 13:48 | whiche when it is full, men drow to lande, and sitte and gadre the good int vessels, and cast the bad awaye. |
| 13:49 | So shall it be at the ende of the worlde. The aungels shall come out, and seuer the bad from the good, |
| 13:50 | and shall caste them into a furnayce of the fyre: there shalbe waylyng and gnashyng of teth. |
| 13:51 | Iesus sayd vnto them: vnderstande ye al these thynges? They sayde, ye Lord. |
| 13:52 | Then sayd he vnto them. Therfore euery Scribe which is taught vnto the kyngdome of heauen is lyke an housholder, whiche bringeth forth, out of his treasur, thinges both new & old. |
| 13:53 | And it came to passe when Iesus had finished these similitudes, that he departed thence |
| 13:54 | and came into hys owne countrey, and taught them in theyr sinagoges, in so much that they were astonyed and sayde: whence cometh all thys wysdome and power vnto hym? |
| 13:55 | Is not thys the carpenters sonne? Is not his mother called Mary? and hys brethren be called Iames and Ioses and Simon and Iudas? |
| 13:56 | And are not hys sisters all here with vs? Whence hath he all these thinges. |
| 13:57 | And they were offended by hym. Then Iesus saide to them a Prophet is not without honor saue in his own countrey, & among his own kynne. |
| 13:58 | And he did not make miracles there, for their vnbeleues sake. |
| 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 day went Iesus out of the house, and sate by the sea side. |
| 13:2 | And great multitudes were gathered together vnto him, so that hee went into a ship, and sate, and the whole multitude stood on the shore. |
| 13:3 | And hee spake many things vnto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went foorth to sow. |
| 13:4 | And when he sowed, some seedes fell by the wayes side, and the foules came, and deuoured them vp. |
| 13:5 | Some fell vpon stony places, where they had not much earth: and foorth with they sprung vp, because they had no deepenesse of earth. |
| 13:6 | And when the Sunne was vp, they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away. |
| 13:7 | And some fell among thorns: and the thornes sprung vp, & choked them. |
| 13:8 | But other fell into good ground, and brought foorth fruit, some an hundred folde, some sixtie folde, some thirty folde. |
| 13:9 | Who hath eares to heare, let him heare. |
| 13:10 | And the disciples came, and sayd vnto him, Why speakest thou vnto them in parables? |
| 13:11 | He answered, and said vnto them, Because it is giuen vnto you to know the mysteries of the kingdome of heauen, but to them it is not giuen. |
| 13:12 | For whosoeuer hath, to him shall be giuen, and he shall haue more abundance: but whosoeuer hath not, from him shall be taken away, euen that hee hath. |
| 13:13 | Therefore speake I to then in parables: because they seeing, see not: and hearing, they heare not, neither doe they vnderstand. |
| 13:14 | And in them is fulfilled the prophecie of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand: and seeing yee shall see, and shall not perceiue. |
| 13:15 | For this peoples heart is waxed grosse, and their eares are dull of hearing, and their eyes they haue closed, lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and should vnderstand with their heart, and should be conuerted, and I should 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 yee see, and haue not seene them: and to heare those things which ye heare, and haue not heard them. |
| 13:18 | Heare ye therefore the parable of the sower. |
| 13:19 | When any one heareth the word of the kingdome, and vnderstandeth it not, then commeth the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sowen in his heart: this is hee which receiued seede by the way side. |
| 13:20 | But he that receiued the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, & anon with ioy receiueth it: |
| 13:21 | Yet hath hee not root in himselfe, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. |
| 13:22 | He also that receiued seed among the thorns, is he that heareth the word, and the care of this world, and the deceitfulnesse of riches choke the word, and he becommeth vnfruitfull. |
| 13:23 | But he that receiued seed into the good ground, is hee that heareth the word, and vnderstandeth it, which also beareth fruit, and bringeth foorth, some an hundred fold, some sixtie, some thirty. |
| 13:24 | Another parable put he forth vnto them, saying; The kingdome of heauen is likened vnto a man which sowed good seed in his field: |
| 13:25 | But while men slept, his enemy came & sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. |
| 13:26 | But when the blade was sprung vp, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. |
| 13:27 | So the seruants of the housholder came, and said vnto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seede in thy field? From whence then hath it tares? |
| 13:28 | He said vnto them, An enemy hath done this. The seruants said vnto him, Wilt thou then that we goe and gather them vp? |
| 13:29 | But he said, Nay: lest while yee gather vp the tares, ye root vp also the wheat with them. |
| 13:30 | Let both grow together vntil the haruest: and in the time of haruest, I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and binde them in bundels to burne them: but gather the wheat into my barne. |
| 13:31 | Another parable put he foorth vnto them, saying, The kingdome of heauen is like to a graine of mustard seed, which a man tooke, and sowed in his field. |
| 13:32 | Which indeed is the least of al seeds: but when it is growen, it is the greatest among herbes, and becommeth a tree: so that the birds of the aire come and lodge in the branches thereof. |
| 13:33 | Another parable spake he vnto them, The kingdome of heauen is like vnto leauen, which a woman tooke, and hid in three measures of meale, till the whole was leauened. |
| 13:34 | All these things spake Iesus vnto the multitude in parables, and without a parable spake hee not vnto them: |
| 13:35 | That it might bee fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables, I wil vtter things which haue bin kept secret from the foundation of the world. |
| 13:36 | Then Iesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came vnto him, saying, Declare vnto vs the parable of the tares of the field. |
| 13:37 | He answered, and said vnto them, Hee that soweth the good seed, is the sonne of man. |
| 13:38 | The field is the world. The good seed, are the children of the kingdome: but the tares are the children of the wicked one. |
| 13:39 | The enemie that sowed them, is the deuill. The haruest, is the ende of the world. And the reapers are the Angels. |
| 13:40 | As therefore the tares are gathered and burnt in the 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 kingdome all things that offend, and them which doe iniquitie: |
| 13:42 | And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wayling and gnashing of teeth. |
| 13:43 | Then shall the righteous shine foorth as the Sunne, in the kingdome of their father. Who hath eares to heare, let him heare. |
| 13:44 | Againe, the kingdome of heauen is like vnto treasure hid in a field: the which when a man hath found, hee hideth, and for ioy thereof goeth and selleth all that hee hath, and buyeth that field. |
| 13:45 | Againe, the kingdome of heauen is like vnto a marchant man, seeking goodly pearles: |
| 13:46 | Who when hee had found one pearle of great price, he went and solde all that he had, and bought it. |
| 13:47 | Againe, the kingdome of heauen is like vnto a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered of euery kind, |
| 13:48 | Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sate downe, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. |
| 13:49 | So shall it be at the ende of the world: the Angels shal come forth, and seuer the wicked from among the iust, |
| 13:50 | And shal cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing, and gnashing of teeth. |
| 13:51 | Iesus saith vnto them, Haue ye vnderstood all these things? They say vnto him, Yea, Lord. |
| 13:52 | Then said he vnto them, Therefore euery Scribe which is instructed vnto the kingdom of heauen, is like vnto a man that is an housholder, which bringeth foorth out of his treasure things new and old. |
| 13:53 | And it came to passe, that when Iesus had finished these parables, hee departed thence. |
| 13:54 | And when hee was come into his owne countrey, he taught them in their Synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisedome, and these mighty works? |
| 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 his sisters, are they not all with vs? whence then hath this man all these things? |
| 13:57 | And they were offended in him. But Iesus said vnto them, A Prophet is not without honour, saue in his owne countrey, and in his owne house. |
| 13:58 | And hee did not many mighty workes there, because of their vnbeliefe. |
