  **Show the text**

  3 He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.

  4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.

  5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.

  6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.

  7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.

  8 Others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.

  9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
