< Matthew 13 >

1 On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.
The same daye wet Iesus out of ye house and sat by the seesyde
2 And large crowds gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the crowd stood on the beach.
and moch people resorted vnto him so gretly yt he wet and sat in a shippe and all the people stode on ye shoore.
3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying, "Look, a farmer went out to sow.
And he spake many thynges to the in similitudes sayinge: Beholde ye sower wet forth to sowe.
4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
And as he sowed some fell by ye wayessyde and the fowlles came and devoured it vp.
5 And others fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
Some fell apo stony groude where it had not moche erth and a none it sproge vp because it had no depth of erth:
6 But when the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
and when ye sunne was vp it cauht heet and for lake of rotynge wyddred awaye.
7 Others fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.
Some fell amoge thornes and the thornes sproge vp and chooked it.
8 Still others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
Parte fell in good groud and brought forth good frute: some an hudred fold some sixtie fold some thyrty folde.
9 He who has ears, let him hear."
Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.
10 Then the disciples came, and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"
And the disciples came and sayde to him: Why speakest thou to the in parables?
11 And answering, he said to them, "To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but it is not given to them.
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.
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever does not have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
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 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing, they do not hear, neither do they understand.
Therfore speake I to them in similitudes: for though they se they se not: and hearinge they heare not: nether vnderstonde.
14 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, 'In hearing you will hear, but will not understand, and seeing you will see, but not perceive.
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.
15 For the heart of this people has grown dull, and their ears are sluggish in hearing, and they have closed their eyes, otherwise they might see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn back, and I would heal them.'
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.
16 "But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
But blessed are youre eyes for they se: and youre eares for they heare.
17 For truly I tell you that many prophets and righteous people desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.
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.
18 "Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
Heare ye therfore ye similitude of the sower.
19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
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.
20 And what was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;
But he yt was sowne in ye stony groude is he which heareth the worde of God and anone wt ioye receaveth it
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
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.
22 And what was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
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. (aiōn g165)
23 And what was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who truly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."
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.
24 He set another parable before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a person who sowed good seed in his field,
Another similitude put he forth vnto the sayinge: The kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a man which sowed good seed in his felde.
25 but while everyone slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away.
But whyll men slepte ther came his foo and sowed tares amoge ye wheate and wet his waye.
26 But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the tares appeared also.
When ye blade was sproge vp and had brought forth frute the appered ye tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where did these tares come from?'
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?
28 "And he said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' "And the servants asked him, 'Then do you want us to go and gather them up?'
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?
29 "But he said, 'No, lest perhaps while you gather up the tares, you root up the wheat with them.
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:
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First, gather up the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
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.
31 He set another parable before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field;
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
32 which indeed is least of all the seeds. But when it has grown it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches."
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.
33 He spoke another parable to them. "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened."
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.
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the crowds; and without a parable, he did not speak to them,
All these thynge spake Iesus vnto the people by similitudes and with oute similitudes spake he nothinge to them
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the beginning of the world."
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.
36 Then Jesus sent the crowds away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares in the field."
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.
37 And he answered them, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
Then answered he and sayde to them. He that soweth the good seed is the sonne of man.
38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the tares are the children of the evil one,
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.
39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
And the enemye that soweth the is ye devell. The harvest is ye end of the worlde. And the repers be ye angels. (aiōn g165)
40 As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
For eve as the tares are gaddred and bret in ye fyre: so shall it be in ye ende of this worlde. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,
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
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the grinding of teeth.
and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre. There shalbe waylynge and gnasshing of teth.
43 Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
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.
44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
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.
45 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
Agayne ye kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a marchaunt that seketh good pearles
46 and having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
which when he had founde one precious pearle wet and solde all that he had and bought it.
47 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
Agayne the kyngdome of heve is lyke vnto a neet cast into ye see yt gadereth of all kyndes of fysshes:
48 which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
which whe it is full men drawe to londe and sitte and gadre the good into vessels and cast the bad awaye.
49 So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
So shall it be at the ende of the worlde. The angels shall come oute and sever the bad from the good (aiōn g165)
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the grinding of teeth."
and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre: there shalbe waylinge and gnasshynge of teth.
51 "Have you understood all these things?" They answered him, "Yes."
Iesus sayde vnto them: vnderstonde ye all these thynges? They sayde ye Lorde.
52 And he said to them, "Therefore, every scribe who has been made a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things."
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.
53 And it happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
And it came to passe when Iesus had finisshed these similitudes yt he departed thece
54 And coming into 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?
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?
55 Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
Is not this the carpeters sonne? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethre be called Iames and Ioses and Simo and Iudas?
56 And are not all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?"
And are not his susters all here wt vs? Whece hath he all these thynge.
57 And they were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house."
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.
58 And he did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
And he dyd not many miracles there for there vnbelefes sake.
