Matthew 13
1 In (now *k*) the day that having gone forth Jesus (from *k*) [from] the house was sitting by the sea.
The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
2 And were gathered together to Him crowds great so that He into (*k*) a boat having climbed into to sit down, and all the crowd on the shore had stood.
And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
3 And He spoke to them many things in parables saying; Behold went out the [one] sowing to sow.
And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And in the sowing of him some indeed fell along the road, and (having come *N(k)(o)*) the birds (and *ko*) devoured them.
And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Other now fell upon the rocky places where not it was having soil much, and immediately it sprang up through not having depth of soil.
Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 when [the] sun now having risen they were scorched, and through the not having root were dried up.
And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 Other now fell upon the thorns, and grew up the thorns and (choked *N(k)O*) them.
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 Other now fell upon the soil good and were yielding fruit, some indeed a hundredfold, some however sixty, some however thirty.
But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
9 The [one] having ears (to hear *ko*) he should hear.
Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And having come the disciples said to Him; Because of why in parables speak You to them?
And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 And answering He said to them; Because to you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, to them however not it has been granted.
He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 Whoever for has, will be given to him and will be abundant [to him] whoever now not has, even what he has will be taken away from him.
For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Because of this in parables to them I speak Because seeing not do they see and hearing not do they hear nor do they understand.
Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And is fulfilled (concerning *k*) them the prophecy of Isaiah who is saying: In hearing you will hear and certainly not may understand, and looking you will look and certainly not may perceive.
And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 Has grown dull for the heart of the people this, and with the ears barely they have heard, and the eyes of them they have closed; otherwise otherwise they may see with the eyes and with the ears they may hear and with the heart they may understand and may return and (I will heal *N(k)O*) them.’
For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 Of you however blessed [are] the eyes because they see and the ears of you because (they hear. *N(k)O*)
But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 Amen for I say to you that many prophets and righteous [men] longed to see what you see, and not saw, and to hear what you hear, and not heard.
For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see [those things] which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear [those things] which ye hear, and have not heard [them.]
18 You yourselves therefore do hear the parable of the [one] (having sown: *N(k)O*)
Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19 Everyone hearing the word of the kingdom and not understanding comes the evil one and snatches away that having been sown in the heart of him; This is the [one] on the path having been sown.
When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
20 That which now upon the rocky places having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing and immediately with joy receiving it.
But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 no he has now root in himself but temporary is. when is coming however tribulation or persecution on account of the word immediately he falls away.
Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
22 That which now among the thorns having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing, and the care of the age (this *ko*) and the deceit of riches choke the word, and unfruitful it becomes. (aiōn g165)
He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 That however on the good (*k*) soil having been sown, this is the [one] the word hearing and understanding, who indeed brings forth fruit and produces — some indeed a hundredfold, some however sixty, some however thirty.
But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
24 Another parable put He before them saying; Has become like the kingdom of the heavens a man (having sown *N(k)O*) good seed in the field of him.
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 In now the [time] to sleep the men came his enemy and (over-sowed *N(k)O*) weeds in [the] midst of the wheat and went away.
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 When now sprouted the plants and fruit produced, then appeared also the weeds.
But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 Having come to [him] now the servants of the master of the house said to him; Sir, surely good seed did you sow in your field? How then has it (the *k*) weeds?
So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He then was saying to them; An enemy a man this did. And the servants (they say *N(k)O*) to him: Do you desire then [that] having gone forth (we shall gather *NK(o)*) them?
He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 And (he says; *N(k)O*) No, lest when lest when gathering the weeds you may uproot together [with] them the wheat.
But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 do allow to grow together both (until *N(k)O*) the harvest; and in (the *k*) time of the harvest I will say to the harvesters; do gather first the weeds and do bind them into bundles in order to burn them; and the wheat (do gather together *NK(o)*) into the barn of mine.’
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
31 Another parable put He before them saying; Like is the kingdom of the heavens to a grain of mustard, which having taken a man sowed in the field of him;
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
32 which smallest indeed is of all the seeds, when however it may be grown, greater than the garden plants it is and becomes a tree so that to come the birds of the air and perching in the branches of it.
Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
33 Another parable spoke He to them: Like is the kingdom of the heavens to leaven, which having taken a woman (hid *NK(o)*) in of flour measures three until of it was leavened all.
Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
34 These things all spoke Jesus in parables to the crowds and without a parable (no [thing] *N(k)O*) He was speaking to them,
All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
35 so that may be fulfilled that having been spoken through the prophet saying; I will open in parables the mouth of Mine, I will utter [things] hidden from [the] foundation [of the] world.
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36 Then having dismissed the crowds He went into the house (Jesus. *k*) And came to Him the disciples of Him saying; (do explain *N(k)O*) to us the parable of the weeds of the field.
Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 And answering He said (to them: *k*) The [One] sowing the good seed is the Son of Man;
He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 and the field is the world; and [the] good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the weeds are the sons of the evil [one];
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one];
39 and the enemy which having sown them is the devil; and the harvest [the] consummation (of the *k*) age is; and the harvesters angels are. (aiōn g165)
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
40 As therefore is gathered the weeds and in fire (is burned up, *NK(o)*) thus it will be in the consummation of the age (this. *k*) (aiōn g165)
As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. (aiōn g165)
41 Will send forth the Son of Man the angels of Him, and they will gather out of the kingdom of Him all the causes of sin and those practicing lawlessness
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 and they will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of the Father of them. The [one] having ears (to hear *ko*) he should hear.
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
44 (again *k*) Like is the kingdom of the heavens to treasure hidden in the field, which having found a man hid. and for the joy of it goes and he sells all as much as he has and buys the field that.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a man a merchant seeking fine pearls.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
46 (who *k*) having found (now *no*) one very precious pearl, having gone away he has sold all things as much as he was having and he bought it.
Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
47 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a dragnet having been cast into the sea and of every kind having gathered together,
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
48 which when it was filled having drawn up on the shore and having sat down they collected the good into (vessels, *N(k)O*) the and bad out they cast.
Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
49 Thus will it be in the consummation of the age; will go out the angels and will separate the evil from [the] midst of the righteous (aiōn g165)
So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, (aiōn g165)
50 and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; There will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
51 (says to them Jesus *k*) Did you understand these things all? They say to Him; Yes (Lord. *k*)
Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
52 He then said to them; Because of this every scribe having been discipled (into *k*) ([in] the kingdom *N(k)O*) of the heavens like is to a man a master of a house who puts forth out of the treasure of him [things] new and old.
Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe [which is] instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is] an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure [things] new and old.
53 And it came to pass when finished Jesus parables these, He withdrew from there;
And it came to pass, [that] when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.
54 And having come into the region of Him He was teaching them in the synagogue of them so that to be astonished they and to say: From where [came] to this [man] wisdom this and the miraculous powers?
And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this [man] this wisdom, and [these] mighty works?
55 Surely this is the of the carpenter Son? (Surely *N(k)O*) the mother of Him is named Mary? And the brothers of Him James and (Joseph *N(k)O*) and Simon and Judas?
Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
56 And the sisters of Him surely all with us are? From where then to this [man] these things all?
And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this [man] all these things?
57 And they were offended at Him. But Jesus said to them; Not is a prophet without Honor only except in the hometown (of him *k*) and in the household of him.
And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
58 And not He did there miracles many because of the unbelief of them.
And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
