< Mark 4 >
1 Once more He began to teach by the side of the Lake, and a vast multitude of people came together to listen to Him. He therefore went on board the boat and sat there, a little way from the land; and all the people were on the shore close to the water.
ⲁ̅ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲥⲑⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ⲉϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲙⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲁⲗⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲛϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲛⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϩⲓⲡⲉⲕⲣⲟ ⲛⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ
2 Then He proceeded to teach them many lessons in figurative language; and in His teaching He said,
ⲃ̅ⲁϥϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉϥⲥⲃⲱ
3 "Listen: the sower goes out to sow.

4 As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϫⲟ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲁϥϩⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛϩⲁⲗⲁⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲙⲟⲩ
5 Some falls on the rocky ground where it finds but little earth, and it shoots up quickly because it has no depth of soil;
ⲉ̅ⲕⲉⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϩⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲛ ⲧⲡⲉⲧⲣⲁ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲉⲙⲙⲛϩⲁϩ ⲛⲕⲁϩ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϯ ⲟⲩⲱ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲉⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ϫⲉⲙⲛϩⲁϩ ⲛⲕⲁϩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ
6 but when the sun is risen, it is scorched, and through having no root it withers away.

7 Some, again, falls among the thorns; and the thorns spring up and stifle it, so that it yields no crop.
ⲍ̅ⲕⲉⲩⲁ ⲁϥϩⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲉⲓ ⲉϫⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲛⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛϣⲟⲛⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲟϭⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲟⲩϯⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ
8 But some of the seed falls into good ground, and gives a return: it comes up and increases, and yields thirty, sixty, or a hundred-fold."
ⲏ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲉ ⲉϫⲙⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲁⲩⲁⲩⲝⲁⲛⲉ ⲁⲩϯ ⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲉⲙⲁⲁⲃ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲥⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϣⲉ
9 "Listen," He added, "every one who has ears to listen with!"
ⲑ̅ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲩⲛⲧϥⲙⲁⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ
10 When He was alone, the Twelve and the others who were about Him requested Him to explain His figurative language.
ⲓ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲕⲁ ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ⲛⲙⲡⲙⲛⲧⲥⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ
11 "To you," He replied, "has been entrusted the secret truth concerning the Kingdom of God; but to those others outside your number all this is spoken in figurative language;
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲧⲁⲩϯ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲙⲡⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧϩⲓⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩⲛⲁϫⲓϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ
12 that "'They may look and look but not see, and listen and listen but not understand, lest perchance they should return and be pardoned.'"
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲩⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲥⲉⲧⲙⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲩⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲉⲧⲙⲛⲟⲉⲓ ⲙⲏⲡⲱⲥ ⲛⲥⲉⲕⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲥⲉⲕⲱ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
13 "Do you all miss the meaning of this parable?" He added; "how then will you understand the rest of my parables?"
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲱⲥ ⲛⲕⲉⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲟⲩ
14 "What the sower sows is the Message.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲧϫⲟ ⲉϥϫⲟ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ
15 Those who receive the seed by the way-side are those in whom the Message is sown, but, when they have heard it, Satan comes at once and carries away the Message sown in them.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲉϣⲁⲩϫⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϣⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲛϥϥⲓⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟϥ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ
16 In the same way those who receive the seed on the rocky places are those who, when they have heard the Message, at once accept it joyfully,
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲓ ϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲓϫⲛ ⲙⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲣⲁ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲩϫⲓⲧϥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲁϣⲉ
17 but they have no root within them. They last for a time; then, when suffering or persecution comes because of the Message, they are immediately overthrown.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲙⲙⲛⲛⲟⲩⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲇⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲏ ⲟⲩⲇⲓⲱⲅⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲩⲥⲕⲁⲛⲇⲁⲗⲓⲍⲉ
18 Others there are who receive the seed among the thorns: these are they who have heard the Message,
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲛϣⲟⲛⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ
19 but worldly cares and the deceitfulness of wealth and the excessive pursuit of other objects come in and stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn )
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲣⲟⲟⲩϣ ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲱⲛ ⲛⲙ ⲧⲁⲡⲁⲧⲏ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲙⲙⲁⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲕⲉⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲱϭⲧ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥϯ ⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ (aiōn )
20 Those, on the other hand, who have received the seed on the good ground, are all who hear the Message and welcome it, and yield a return of thirty, sixty, or a hundred fold."
ⲕ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲏ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϫⲙⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲥⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲙⲁⲁⲃ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲛ ⲥⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲛ ϣⲉ
21 He went on to say, "Is the lamp brought in in order to be put under the bushel or under the bed? Is it not rather in order that it may be placed on the lampstand?
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ⲉⲣⲉⲡϩⲏⲃⲥ ⲛⲁⲉⲓ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲕⲁⲁϥ ϩⲁⲟⲩϣⲓ ⲏ ϩⲁ ⲟⲩϭⲗⲟϭ ⲙⲏ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲁⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ϩⲓϫⲛ ⲧⲗⲩⲭⲛⲓⲁ
22 Why, there is nothing hidden except with a view to its being ultimately disclosed, nor has anything been made a secret but that it may at last come to light.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲙⲙⲛⲡⲉⲧϩⲟⲃⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲥⲉⲛⲁϭⲟⲗⲡϥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲛⲡⲉⲧϩⲏⲡ ⲉⲛϥⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ

ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲩⲛⲧϥⲙⲁⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ
24 He also said to them, "Take care what you hear. With what measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and that with interest.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯϩⲧⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲙ ⲡϣⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲓ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϣⲓ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ
25 For those who have will have more given them; and from those who have not, even what they have will be taken away."

26 Another saying of His was this: "The Kingdom of God is as if a man scattered seed over the ground:
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲥⲟ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲛⲟⲩϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲉϥϭⲣⲟϭ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲕⲁϩ
27 he spends days and nights, now awake, now asleep, while the seed sprouts and grows tall, he knows not how.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥⲛⲕⲟⲧⲕ ⲛϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ ⲙⲛ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲡⲉϭⲣⲟϭ ϯ ⲟⲩⲱ ⲛϥⲣⲛⲟϭ ⲉⲛϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ
28 Of itself the land produces the crop-- first the blade, then the ear; afterwards the perfect grain is seen in the ear.

29 But no sooner is the crop ripe, than he sends the reapers, because the time of harvest has come."
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲱϩ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϣⲁϥⲛⲡⲟϩⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲱϩⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ
30 Another saying of His was this: "How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?
ⲗ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲛⲁⲧⲛⲧⲛ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲟⲩ ⲏ ⲉⲛⲛⲁⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲁϣ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ
31 It is like a mustard-seed, which, when sown in the earth, is the smallest of all the seeds in the world;

32 yet when sown it springs up and becomes larger than all the herbs, and throws out great branches, so that the birds build under its shadow."
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲥ ϣⲁⲥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛⲥϫⲓⲥⲉ ⲉⲛⲟⲩⲟⲟⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲥⲧⲁⲩⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲛⲟϭ ⲛⲕⲗⲁⲇⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛⲥⲉϣⲟⲩⲱϩ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲥϩⲁⲉⲓⲃⲉⲥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛϩⲁⲗⲁⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲡⲉ
33 With many such parables He used to speak the Message to them according to their capacity for receiving it.
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲓⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁϣⲥⲱⲧⲙ
34 But except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them; while to His own disciples He expounded everything, in private.
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϫⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲥⲁⲩⲥⲁ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁϥⲃⲟⲗⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ
35 The same day, in the evening, He said to them, "Let us cross to the other side."
ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉⲣⲟⲩϩⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲣⲟ
36 So they got away from the crowd, and took Him--as He was--in the boat; and other boats accompanied Him.
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ϭⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲗⲟϥ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲉⲧϥⲛϩⲏⲧⲥ ⲁϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲉϫⲏⲩ ⲥϭⲏⲣ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ
37 But a heavy squall came on, and the waves were now dashing into the boat, so that it was fast filling.
ⲗ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛϩⲁⲧⲏⲩ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲛϩⲟⲉⲓⲙ ϥⲱϭⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲟⲙⲥϥ
38 But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. "Rabbi," they cried, "is it nothing to you that we are drowning?"
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥϩⲓⲡⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲉϥⲛⲕⲟⲧⲕ ϩⲓϫⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲟⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲉϩⲥⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲛⲅⲟ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲣⲣⲟⲟⲩϣ ϫⲉ ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩ
39 So He roused Himself and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, "Silence! Be still!" The wind sank, and a perfect calm set in.

41 Then they were filled with terror, and began to say to one another, "Who is this, then? For even wind and sea obey Him."
