31 He put before them another parable, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took [and] sowed in his field.
32
{It} is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it is grown it is larger than the garden herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and nest in its branches."
[a].
*Here "[and]" is supplied because the previous participle ("took") has been translated as a finite verb
[b].
Literally "which," but a new sentence is started here in the English translation
