εκαθητο |  | παρα |  | την |  | θαλασσαν |  |
sat down |  | by |  | the |  | sea. |  |

| 2 | και |  | συνηχθησαν |  | προς |  | αυτον |  | οχλοι |  | πολλοι |  | ωστε |  | αυτον |  | εις |  | το |
|  | And |  | were gathered together |  | to |  | him |  | crowds 2 |  | great, 1 |  | so that |  | he |  | into |  | the |

πλοιον |  | εμβαντα |  | καθησθαι |  | και |  | πας |  | ο |  | οχλος |  | επι |  | τον |  | αιγιαλον |  | ειστηκει |  |
ship |  | having entered |  | sat down, |  | and |  | all |  | the |  | crowd |  | on |  | the |  | shore |  | stood. |  |

|  | And |  | as he sowed |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |  | some |  | ♦ |  | fell |  | by |  | the |  | way, |  | and |

ηλθεν |  | τα |  | πετεινα |  | και |  | κατεφαγεν |  | αυτα |  |
came 3 |  | the 1 |  | birds 2 |  | and |  | devoured |  | them. |  |

| 5 | αλλα |  | δε |  | επεσεν |  | επι |  | τα |  | πετρωδη |  | οπου |  | ουκ |  | ειχεν |  | γην |  | πολλην |
|  | And some |  | ♦ |  | fell |  | upon |  | the |  | rocky places, |  | where |  | they had not |  | ♦ |  | earth 2 |  | much, 1 |

και |  | ευθεως |  | εξανετειλεν |  | δια |  | το |  | μη |  | εχειν |  | βαθος |  | γης |  |
and |  | immediately |  | sprang up |  | because of |  | ♦ |  | not |  | having |  | depth |  | of earth; |  |

| 6 | ηλιου |  | δε |  | ανατειλαντος |  | εκαυματισθη |  | και |  | δια |  | το |  | μη |
|  | and [the] sun |  | ♦ |  | having risen |  | they were scorched, |  | and |  | because of |  | not having |  | ♦ |

εχειν |  | ριζαν |  | εξηρανθη |  |
♦ |  | root |  | were dried up. |  |

| 7 | αλλα |  | δε |  | επεσεν |  | επι |  | τας |  | ακανθας |  | και |  | ανεβησαν |  | αι |  | ακανθαι |  | και |
|  | And some |  | ♦ |  | fell |  | upon |  | the |  | thorns, |  | and |  | grew 3 up 4 |  | the 1 |  | thorns 2 |  | and |

απεπνιξαν |  | αυτα |  |
choked |  | them. |  |

| 8 | αλλα |  | δε |  | επεσεν |  | επι |  | την |  | γην |  | την |  | καλην |  | και |  | εδιδου |  | καρπον |  | ο |  | μεν |
|  | And some |  | ♦ |  | fell |  | upon |  | the |  | ground |  | the |  | good, |  | and |  | yielded |  | fruit, |  | one |  | ♦ |

εκατον |  | ο |  | δε |  | εξηκοντα |  | ο |  | δε |  | τριακοντα |  |
a hundred, |  | another |  | ♦ |  | sixty, |  | another |  | ♦ |  | thirty. |  |

| 9 | ο |  | εχων |  | ωτα |  | ακουειν |  | ακουετω |  |
|  | He that |  | has |  | ears |  | to hear |  | let him hear. |  |

| 10 | και |  | προσελθοντες |  | οι |  | μαθηται |  | ειπον |  | αυτω |  | δια |  | τι |  | εν |
|  | And |  | having 3 come 4 to 5 [him] 6 |  | the 1 |  | disciples 2 |  | said |  | to him, |  | Why |  | in |  | parables |

παραβολαις |  | λαλεις |  |
speakest thou |  | to them? |  |

| 11 | ο |  | δε |  | αποκριθεις |  | ειπεν |  | αυτοις |  | οτι |  | υμιν |  | δεδοται |  | γνωναι |  | τα |
|  | And he |  | ♦ |  | answering |  | said |  | to them, |  | Because |  | to you |  | it has been given |  | to know |  | the |

μυστηρια |  | της |  | βασιλειας |  | των |  | ουρανων |  | εκεινοις |  | δε |
mysteries |  | of the |  | kingdom |  | of the heavens, |  | ♦ |  | but to them |  | ♦ |

ου |  | δεδοται |  |
it has not been given. |  | ♦ |  |

| 12 | οστις |  | γαρ |  | εχει |  | δοθησεται |  | αυτω |  | και |  | περισσευθησεται |
|  | Whosoever 2 |  | for 1 |  | has, |  | shall 3 be 4 given 5 |  | to 1 him, 2 |  | and |  | he shall be in abundance; |

οστις |  | δε |  | ουκ |  | εχει |  | και |  | ο |  | εχει |  | αρθησεται |  | απ |  | αυτου |  |
but whosoever |  | ♦ |  | has not, |  | ♦ |  | even |  | what |  | he has |  | shall be taken away |  | from |  | him. |  |

| 13 | δια |  | τουτο |  | εν |  | παραβολαις |  | αυτοις |  | λαλω |  | οτι |  | βλεποντες |
|  | Because of |  | this |  | in |  | parables |  | to them |  | I speak, |  | because |  | seeing |

ου |  | βλεπουσιν |  | και |  | ακουοντες |  | ουκ |  | ακουουσιν |  | ουδε |
they see not, |  | ♦ |  | and |  | hearing |  | they hear not, |  | ♦ |  | nor |

συνιουσιν |  |

| 14 | και |  | αναπληρουται |  | επ |  | αυτοις |  | η |  | προφητεια |  | ησαιου |  | η |  | λεγουσα |
|  | And |  | is 3 filled 4 up 5 |  | in 1 |  | them 2 |  | the |  | prophecy |  | of Esaias, |  | which |  | says, |

| 15 | επαχυνθη |  | γαρ |  | η |  | καρδια |  | του |  | λαου |  | τουτου |  | και |  | τοις |
|  | for has 6 grown 7 fat 8 |  | ♦ |  | the |  | heart 2 |  | ♦ |  | of 3 this 4 people, 5 |  | ♦ |  | and |  | with the |

μηποτε |  | ιδωσιν |  | τοις |  | οφθαλμοις |  | και |  | τοις |  | ωσιν |  | ακουσωσιν |  | και |
lest |  | they should see |  | with the |  | eyes, |  | and |  | with the |  | ears |  | they should hear, |  | and |
