    18"Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.

    19When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.

    20What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;

    21yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.

    22What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

    23What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most assuredly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."

    24He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,

    25but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel{darnel is a weed grass (probably bearded darnel or lolium temulentum) that looks very much like wheat until it is mature, when the difference becomes very apparent.} also among the wheat, and went away.

    26But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel appeared also.

    27The servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where did this darnel come from?'

    28"He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and gather them up?'

    29"But he said, 'No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel, you root up the wheat with them.

    30Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First, gather up the darnel, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"

    31He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;

    32which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches."

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

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