Mark - Chapter: 4

>
4:1And again he began to teach by the sea, and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he, having gone into the boat, sat in the sea, and all the multitude was near the sea, on the land,
4:2and he taught them many things in similes, and he said to them in his teaching:
4:3`Hearken, lo, the sower went forth to sow;
4:4and it came to pass, in the sowing, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven did come and devour it;
4:5and other fell upon the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprang forth, because of not having depth of earth,
4:6and the sun having risen, it was scorched, and because of not having root it did wither;
4:7and other fell toward the thorns, and the thorns did come up, and choke it, and fruit it gave not;
4:8and other fell to the good ground, and was giving fruit, coming up and increasing, and it bare, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
4:9And he said to them, `He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.'
4:10And when he was alone, those about him, with the twelve, did ask him of the simile,
4:11and he said to them, `To you it hath been given to know the secret of the reign of God, but to those who are without, in similes are all the things done;
4:12that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest they may turn, and the sins may be forgiven them.'
4:13And he saith to them, `Have ye not known this simile? and how shall ye know all the similes?
4:14He who is sowing doth sow the word;
4:15and these are they by the way where the word is sown: and whenever they may hear, immediately cometh the Adversary, and he taketh away the word that hath been sown in their hearts.
4:16`And these are they, in like manner, who on the rocky ground are sown: who, whenever they may hear the word, immediately with joy do receive it,
4:17and have not root in themselves, but are temporary; afterward tribulation or persecution having come because of the word, immediately they are stumbled.
4:18`And these are they who toward the thorns are sown: these are they who are hearing the word,
4:19and the anxieties of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, and the desires concerning the other things, entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
4:20`And these are they who on the good ground have been sown: who do hear the word, and receive, and do bear fruit, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
4:21And he said to them, `Doth the lamp come that under the measure it may be put, or under the couch -- not that it may be put on the lamp-stand?
4:22for there is not anything hid that may not be manifested, nor was anything kept hid but that it may come to light.
4:23If any hath ears to hear -- let him hear.'
4:24And he said to them, `Take heed what ye hear; in what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you who hear it shall be added;
4:25for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever hath not, also that which he hath shall be taken from him.'
4:26And he said, `Thus is the reign of God: as if a man may cast the seed on the earth,
4:27and may sleep, and may rise night and day, and the seed spring up and grow, he hath not known how;
4:28for of itself doth the earth bear fruit, first a blade, afterwards an ear, afterwards full corn in the ear;
4:29and whenever the fruit may yield itself, immediately he doth send forth the sickle, because the harvest hath come.'
4:30And he said, `To what may we liken the reign of God, or in what simile may we compare it?
4:31As a grain of mustard, which, whenever it may be sown on the earth, is less than any of the seeds that are on the earth;
4:32and whenever it may be sown, it cometh up, and doth become greater than any of the herbs, and doth make great branches, so that under its shade the fowls of the heaven are able to rest.'
4:33And with many such similes he was speaking to them the word, as they were able to hear,
4:34and without a simile he was not speaking to them, and by themselves, to his disciples he was expounding all.
4:35And he saith to them on that day, evening having come, `We may pass over to the other side;'
4:36and having let away the multitude, they take him up as he was in the boat, and other little boats also were with him.
4:37And there cometh a great storm of wind, and the waves were beating on the boat, so that it is now being filled,
4:38and he himself was upon the stern, upon the pillow sleeping, and they wake him up, and say to him, `Teacher, art thou not caring that we perish?'
4:39And having waked up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, `Peace, be stilled;' and the wind did lull, and there was a great calm:
4:40and he said to them, `Why are ye so fearful? how have ye not faith?'
4:41and they feared a great fear, and said one to another, `Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?'

 

4:1And he began agayne to teache by the seesyde. And there gadered to gedder vnto him moche people so greatly yt he entred into a ship and sate in the see and all the people was by the seeside on the shoore.
4:2And he taught them many thynges in similitudes and sayde vnto them in his doctrine:
4:3Herken to. Beholde There wet out a sower to sowe.
4:4And it fortuned as he sowed that some fell by the waye syde and the fowles of the ayre came and devoured it vp.
4:5Some fell on stony grounde where it had not moche erth: and by and by sprange vp because it had not deepth of erth:
4:6but as sone as the sunne was vp it caught heet and because it had not rotynge wyddred awaye.
4:7And some fell amonge the thornes and the thornes grewe vp and choked it so that it gave no frute.
4:8And some fell vpon good grounde and dyd yelde frute that sproge and grewe and brought forthe: some thirty folde some sixtie folde and some an hundred folde.
4:9And he sayde vnto them: he that hath eares to heare let him heare.
4:10And when he was alone they yt were aboute him with ye .xii. axed him of ye similitude.
4:11And he sayde vnto the. To you it is geve to knowe the mistery of the kyngdome of God. But vnto them that are wt out shall all thinges be done in similitudes:
4:12yt when they se they shall se and not discerne: and when they heare they shall heare and not vnderstonde: leste at any tyme they shulde tourne and their synnes shuld be forgeve the.
4:13And he sayde vnto the: Perceave ye not this similitude? how then shulde ye vnderstonde all other similitudes?
4:14The sower soweth ye worde.
4:15And they that are by the wayes syde where the worde is sowen are they to whom assone as they have herde it Satha cometh immediatly and takith awaye the worde that was sowe in their hertes.
4:16And likewise they that are sowen on the stonye groude are they: which when they have harde the worde at once receave it wt gladnes
4:17yet have no rotes in them selves and so endure but a tyme: and anone as trouble and persecucion aryseth for ye wordes sake they fall immediatly.
4:18And they that are sowe amoge the thornes are soche as heare ye worde:
4:19and ye care of this worlde and ye disseytfulnes of ryches and the lustes of other thinges entre in and choocke ye worde and it is made vnfrutfull.
4:20And those that weare sowe in good grounde are they that heare the worde and receave it and bringe forth frute some thirty folde some sixty folde some an hundred folde.
4:21And he sayde vnto them: is ye candle lighted to be put vnder a busshell or vnder ye table and not rather to be put on a cadelstick?
4:22For there is nothinge so prevy that shall not be opened: nether so secreet but that it shall come abroade.
4:23Yf eny man have eares to heare let him heare.
4:24And he sayde vnto them: take hede what ye heare. With what measure ye mete with the same shall it be measured vnto you agayne. And vnto you that heare shall more be geve.
4:25For vnto him yt hath shall it be geven: and from him that hath not shalbe taken awaye even that he hath.
4:26And he sayde: so is the kyngdome of God even as yf a man shuld sowe seed in ye groude
4:27and shulde slepe and ryse vp night and daye: and the seede shuld springe and growe vp he not ware.
4:28For ye erth bringeth forthe frute of her silfe: fyrst the blade then the eares after that full corne in the eares.
4:29And as sone as the frute is brought forth anone he throusteth in ye sykell because the hervest is come.
4:30And he sayde: where vnto shall we lyke the kyngdome of God? or with what copareson shall we copare it?
4:31It is lyke a grayne of mustard seed which when it is sowe in the erth is the leest of all seedes that be in the erth:
4:32but after that it is sowen it groweth vp and is greatest of all yerbes: and bereth greate brauches so that ye fowles of the ayre maye dwell vnder the shadowe of it.
4:33And with many soche similitudes he preached the worde vnto the after as they myght heare it.
4:34And with out similitude spake he no thinge vnto them. But when they were aparte he expounded all thinges to his disciples.
4:35And the same daye when even was come he sayde vnto them: let vs passe over vnto the other syde.
4:36And they lefte the people and toke him even as he was in the shyp. And ther were also with him other shippes.
4:37And ther arose a great storme of wynde and dasshed ye waves into the ship so that it was full.
4:38And he was in the sterne a slepe on a pelowe. And they awoke him and sayde to him: Master carest thou not yt we perisshe?
4:39And he rose vp and rebuked the wynde and sayde vnto the see: peace and be still. And the winde alayed and ther folowed a greate calme.
4:40And he sayde vnto them: why are ye so fearfull? How is it that ye have no fayth?
4:41And they feared excedingly and sayde one to another: what felowe is this? For booth winde and see obey him.

 

4:1And he begane agayne to teach by ye seeside. And there gathered moch people vnto him, so that he wente in to a shippe, and sat vpon the water. And all the people stode vpon the londe by the see syde.
4:2And he preached longe vnto the by parables, and sayde vnto the in his doctryne:
4:3Herken to, beholde, there wente out a sower to sowe:
4:4& it happened whyle he was sowinge, that some fell by the waye syde. Then came the foules vnder the heauen, and ate it vp.
4:5Some fell vpon stonye grounde, where it had not moch earth: and anone it came vp, because it had not depe earth.
4:6Now wha the Sonne arose, it caught heate: and in so moch as it had no rote, it wythred awaye.
4:7And some fel amonge the thornes, & the thornes grew vp, and choked it, and it gaue no frute.
4:8And some fell vpon a good grounde, which gaue frute, that came vp and grew. And some bare thirtie folde, and some sixtie folde, and some an hundreth folde,
4:9And he sayde vnto them: Who so hath eares to heare, let him heare.
4:10And whan he was alone, they that were aboute him wt the twolue, axed him concernynge this parable.
4:11And he sayde vnto the: Vnto you it is geuen, to knowe the mystery of the kyngdome of God: but vnto them that are without, all thinges happen by parables,
4:12that with seynge eyes they maye se, and not discerne: and that with hearinge eares they maye heare, and not vnderstode, lest at eny tyme they turne, and their synnes be forgeuen them.
4:13And he sayde vnto them: Vnderstonde ye not this parable? How wyl ye then vnderstonde all other parables?
4:14The sower soweth the worde.
4:15These be they that are by the waye syde: where the worde is sowne, and as soone as they haue herde it, immediatly commeth Satha, and taketh awaye the worde that was sowen in their hertes.
4:16And likewyse are they that are sowen on the stonye grounde: which when they haue herde the worde, receaue it with ioye,
4:17and haue no rote in them: but endure for a tyme. When trouble and persecucion aryseth for ye wordes sake, immediatly they are offended.
4:18And these are they that are sowen amoge the thornes: which heare the worde,
4:19and ye carefulues of this worlde, and the disceatfulnes of riches, and many other lustes entre in, and choke the worde, and so is it made vnfrutefull.
4:20And these are they yt are sowen vpo a good grounde: Which heare ye worde, and receaue it, and brynge forth frute: some thirtie folde, and some sixtie folde, and some an hundreth folde.
4:21And he sayde vnto the: Is a candle lighted to be put vnder a busshell, or vnder a table? Is it not lighted, to be set vpon a candelsticke?
4:22For there is nothinge hyd, that shal not be openly shewed: and there is nothinge secrete, yt shal not be knowne.
4:23Who so hath eares to heare, let him heare.
4:24And he sayde vnto them: Take hede what ye heare. With what measure ye mete, with the same shal it be measured vnto you agayne. And vnto you that heare this, shal more be geuen.
4:25For who so hath, vnto him shal be geuen: and who so hath not, from him shalbe taken awaye, euen that he hath.
4:26And he sayde: The kyngdome of God is after this maner, as when a man casteth sede vpon the londe,
4:27and slepeth, and stondeth vp night and daye, and the sede spryngeth vp, & groweth, he not knowinge of it.
4:28(For the earth bryngeth forth frute of her selfe: first the grasse, afterwarde the eare, then the full wheate in the eare)
4:29But whan she hath brought forth the frute, he putteth to the syckell, because the haruest is come.
4:30And he sayde: Where vnto wyl we licken the kyngdome of God? Or by what symilitude wyl we compare it?
4:31It is like a grayne of mustarde sede, which wha it is sowe vpo the londe, is the leest amonge all sedes of the earth.
4:32And wha it is sowen, it groweth vp, and is greater then all herbes, and getteth greate braunches, so yt the foules vnder the heaue maye dwell vnder ye shadowe therof.
4:33And by many soch parables he spake the worde vnto the, there after as they might heare it,
4:34& without parables spake he nothinge vnto them: but vnto his disciples he expounded all thinges pryuately.
4:35And the same daye at euen he sayde vnto them: let us passe ouer.
4:36And they let the people go, and toke him as he was in the shippe, and there were mo shippes with him.
4:37And there arose a greate storme of wynde, and dasshed the wawes in to the shippe, so that the shippe was full.
4:38And he was behynde in the shippe and slepte vpon a pelowe. And they awoke him & sayde vnto him: Master, Carest thou not, that we perishe?
4:39And he arose, and rebuked ye wynde, and sayde vnto the see: Peace, and be styll, And the wynde was layed, & there folowed a greate calme.
4:40And he sayde vnto them: Why are ye so fearfull? How is it, that ye haue no faith?
4:41And they feared exceadingly, & sayde one to another: What is he this? For wynde and see are obedient vnto him.
