Luke 8:5-9

⁵The sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

⁶And other some fell upon a rock: and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

⁷And other some fell among thorns, and the thorns growing up with it, choked it.

⁸And other some fell upon good ground; and being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

⁹And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.
