For this people’s
heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of
hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and
hear with their ears, and should understand with their
heart, and should be converted, and I should
heal them.
For this people’s
heart has grown
callous; they hardly
hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears, understand with their
hearts, and turn, and I would
heal them.’

sower.

heareth the word, and
anon with joy receiveth it;

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that
heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the
deceitfulness of riches,
choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
The seed sown among the thorns is the one who
hears the word, but the
worries of this life and the
deceitfulness of wealth
choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an
hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and produces a crop—a
hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.”
