< Mark 4 >
1 And again He began to teach beside the sea. And (are gathered together *N(k)O*) to Him a crowd (greatest *N(K)O*) so that He into a boat having climbed (*k*) sitting in the sea, and all the crowd close to the sea on the land (was. *N(k)O*)
And he began again to teach by the sea-side: and great assemblies were gathered to him; so that, ascending, he sat in a bark on the sea, and the whole multitude stood on the land, by the edge of the water.
2 And He was teaching them in parables many things and He was saying to them in the teaching of Him;
And he instructed them by many parables, and said in his teaching,
3 do listen! Behold went out the [one] sowing (of the *ko*) to sow;
Listen: Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And it came to pass while sowing, some fell along the road, and came the birds (heaven *K*) and devoured it.
and as he sowed, some fell by the way-side, and the fowl came and devoured it.
5 (And *no*) other (however *k*) fell upon the rocky place (and *o*) where not it had soil much, and immediately it sprang up because of the not having depth of soil.
And other fell upon the rock, so that it had not much earth; and it soon came up, because it had not depth of earth:
6 (And *N(k)O*) (after *NO*) (rose *N(k)O*) (the *no*) (sun it was scorched *N(k)O*) and because of not having root it withered away.
but when the sun arose, it became hot; and inasmuch as it had no root, it dried up.
7 And other fell among the thorns, and grew up the thorns and choked it, and fruit no it yielded.
And other fell in a place of thorns; and the thorns sprang up, and choked it, and it gave no fruits.
8 And (others *N(k)O*) fell into the soil good and was yielding fruit growing up and (increasing *N(k)(o)*) and was bearing (one *N(K)(o)*) thirtyfold and (one *N(K)(o)*) sixty and (one *N(K)(o)*) a hundred.
But other fell upon good ground; and it came up, and grew, and gave fruits, some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred.
9 And He was saying (to them: *k*) ([He] who has *N(k)O*) ears to hear he should hear.
And he said, Whoever hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 (And *no*) when (now *k*) He was (utterly *N(K)O*) (alone, they were asking *N(k)O*) Him those around Him with the Twelve (about the *N(k)O*) (parables. *N(K)O*)
And when he was alone, they who were with him along with his twelve inquired of him that parable.
11 And He was saying to them; To you (to know *k*) the mystery has been given of the kingdom of God, To those however who are outside in parables everything is done
And Jeshu said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of Aloha; but to those without every thing is in parables:
12 so that Looking they may look and not they may perceive and hearing they may hear and not they may understand otherwise otherwise they may turn and may be forgiven to them’ (sins. *k*)
that while seeing they may see, and not see; and while hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.
13 And He says to them; Not understand you parable this? And how all the parables will you understand?
And he said to them, Do you not know this parable? how will you know all parables?
14 The [one] sowing the word sows.
The sower who sowed, the word sowed.
15 These now are they along the road where is sown the word, and when they may hear, immediately comes Satan and takes away the word sown (in *N(k)O*) (hearts *K*) (them. *N(k)(o)*)
These which were by the way-side, these are they in whom the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately cometh Satana, and taketh up the word which was sowed in their heart.
16 And these are (likewise *KO*) those upon the rocky places sown, who when they may hear the word, immediately with joy receive it
And these who upon the rock are sowed, these are they who, when they have heard the word, at once with joy receive it:
17 and not they have root in themselves but temporary are. then when was happening tribulation or persecution on account of the word, immediately they fall away.
but they have no root in themselves, but are (only) for a time; and when there is affliction or persecution on account of the word, they are soon offended.
18 And (another *N(K)O*) are those among the thorns sown; These are those the word (hearing, *N(k)O*)
And these who in the place of thorns are sown, these are they who hear the word;
19 and the cares of the (age *NK(O)*) (this *k*) and the deceit of the riches and of the other things desires entering in they choke the word, and unfruitful it becomes. (aiōn )
and the care of this world, and the deceptiveness of wealth, and the remainder of other lusts, entering, choke the word, and it is without fruits. (aiōn )
20 And (those *N(k)O*) are those upon the soil good having been sown, such as hear the word and receive [it] and bring forth fruit (one *N(K)O*) thirtyfold and (one *N(K)O*) sixty and (one *N(K)O*) a hundred.
And these who in good ground are sowed, these are they who hear the word, and receive, and give fruits, thirty, and sixty, and a hundred.
21 And He was saying to them (that: *o*) surely not ever is brought in the lamp so that under the basket it may be put or under the bed? Surely that upon the lampstand (may it be put? *N(k)O*)
And he said to them, A lamp never cometh to be put under a measure, or under a bed: is it not set upon a candlestick?
22 Nothing for there is (anything *k*) hidden (which *k*) only unless (in order *NO*) it shall be made manifest, nor has taken place a secret thing but that it shall come to light.
For nothing is hid which shall not be revealed; nor is there any thing in secret which is not to be manifested.
23 If anyone has ears to hear he should hear.
If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
24 And He was saying to them; do take heed what you hear. With what measure you measure it will be measured to you and more will be added to you (who are hearing. *K*)
AND he said to them, Consider what you hear. With that measure which you mete, you shall have measured to you; and there shall be, added to you those which you hear.
25 Who[ever] for (maybe *k*) (has, *N(k)O*) it will be given to him; and he who not has, even (what *N(k)O*) he has will be taken away from him.
For whosoever hath, unto him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken from him.
26 And He was saying; Thus is the kingdom of God, as (if *ko*) a man shall cast the seed upon the earth
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as a man who shall cast seed into the earth;
27 and he may sleep and he may be risen night and day, and the seed may sprout and it may grow how not knows he himself.
and shall sleep, and rise up by night and day, and the seed shall increase, and become long, while he knoweth not,
28 Of itself (for *k*) the earth brings forth fruit — first a plant then an ear then full (grain *NK(o)*) in the ear.
For the earth yieldeth him fruit; and first is there the plant, and after it the ear, but lastly the completed corn in the ear.
29 When then it may produce the fruit, immediately he sends the sickle for has come the harvest.
But when the fruit is mature, immediately cometh the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 And He was saying; (how *N(k)O*) shall we liken the kingdom of God Or in (which *N(k)O*) it parable (let us present *N(k)O*)
And he said, To what may we compare the kingdom of Aloha? and with what comparison shall we compare it?
31 As (a grain *NK(o)*) of mustard which when it may be sown upon the earth, (smaller than is *N(k)O*) all the seeds which [are] upon the earth.
It is like a grain of mustard, which, when sown in the earth, is smaller than all seeds which are in the earth:
32 and when it may be sown, it grows up and becomes (greater *N(k)O*) than all the garden plants and it produces branches great so that to be able under the shadow of it the birds of the air to perch.
and when it is sown, it springeth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and maketh great branches; so that in its shadow the fowl can dwell.
33 And with such parables many He was speaking to them the word even as they were able to hear.
In parables such as these spake Jeshu with them, in parables such as they could hear.
34 Without then parables not was He speaking to them; in private however (to [His] own *N(k)O*) disciples He was explaining all things.
And without parable did he not speak with them: but to his disciples, between him and them, he explained all.
35 And He says to them on that [very] day evening having come; let us pass over to the other side.
AND he said to them that day, in the evening, Let us pass to the opposite shore.
36 And having dismissed the crowd they take with [them] Him since He was in the boat, also other (now *k*) (boats *N(k)O*) were with Him.
And they sent away the assembles, and took him into the vessel; and other vessels were with him.
37 And comes a storm violent of wind (And *no*) the (now *k*) waves were breaking over the boat so that already is being filled up (the *no*) (boat. *N(K)O*)
And there was a great commotion and wind, and the waves fell upon the vessel, which was nigh being filled.
38 And He himself was (in *N(k)O*) the stern on the cushion sleeping. And (they wake *N(k)O*) Him and say to Him; Teacher, not is it concern to You that we perish?
But Jeshu upon a pillow slept in the after-part of the vessel, and they came and raised him, saying to him, Raban, hast thou no care that we are perishing?
39 And having been awoken He rebuked the wind and said to the sea; Silence! you must be still! And abated the wind, and there was a calm great.
And he arose, and restrained the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be silent. And the wind ceased, and there was a great stillness.
40 And He said to them; Why fearful are you? (Still not *N(K)O*) (how not *K*) have you faith?
And he said to them, Why feared ye? how is it ye have no faith?
41 And they feared [with] fear great and were saying to each other; Who then this is that even the wind and the sea (it obeys *N(k)O*) Him?
And they feared with great fear, and said among themselves, Who is this, to whom the winds and the sea are obedient?
