Matthew 13:1-6

1 In that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat beside the sea.

2 And much people was gathered to him, so that he went up into a boat, and sat; and all the people stood on the brink. [And many companies were gathered to him, so that he ascending into a boat sat; and all the company stood in the brink.]

3 And he spake to them many things in parables, and said [saying], Lo! he that soweth, went out to sow his seed.

4 And while he soweth, some seeds felled [fell] beside the way, and birds of the air came, and ate them.

5 But other seeds [Soothly other] felled into stony places, where they had not much earth; and at once [and anon] they sprung up, for they had not deepness of earth.

6 But when the sun was risen, they parched [they sweltered, or burned for heat], and for they had not root, they dried up.
