Jesus went out again by the sea. The whole crowd came to him, and he taught them.

Now Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd was pressing around him to hear the word of God.He saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets.He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then Jesus sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.

While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from one town after another, he spoke to them in a parable:“ A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell along the path and was trampled on, and the wild birds devoured it.Other seed fell on rock, and when it came up, it withered because it had no moisture.Other seed fell among the thorns, and they grew up with it and choked it.But other seed fell on good soil and grew, and it produced a hundred times as much grain.” As he said this, he called out,“ The one who has ears to hear had better listen!”Then his disciples asked him what this parable meant.He said,“ You have been given the opportunity to know the secrets of the kingdom of God, but for others they are in parables, so that although they see they may not see, and although they hear they may not understand.

On that day after Jesus went out of the house, he sat by the lake.And such a large crowd gathered around him that he got into a boat to sit while the whole crowd stood on the shore.He told them many things in parables, saying:“ Listen! A sower went out to sow.And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.Other seeds fell on rocky ground where they did not have much soil. They sprang up quickly because the soil was not deep.But when the sun came up, they were scorched, and because they did not have sufficient root, they withered.Other seeds fell among the thorns, and they grew up and choked them.But other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.The one who has ears had better listen!”Then the disciples came to him and said,“ Why do you speak to them in parables?”He replied,“ You have been given the opportunity to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but they have not.For whoever has will be given more, and will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.For this reason I speak to them in parables: Although they see they do not see, and although they hear they do not hear nor do they understand.And concerning them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:‘ You will listen carefully yet will never understand, you will look closely yet will never comprehend.For the heart of this people has become dull; they are hard of hearing, and they have shut their eyes, so that they would not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’

Then Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him. And from Judea,
