Matthew 13: 3-8

     Behold, a sower went forth to sow:

   And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the wayside, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

   Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

   And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

   And some fell among the thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

   But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
