He presented another parable to them:“ The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

because you have been born again— not of perishable seed but of imperishable— through the living and enduring word of God.For All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like a flower of the grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls,but the word of the Lord endures forever. And this word is the gospel that was proclaimed to you.

The reaper is already receiving pay and gathering fruit for eternal life, so that the sower and reaper can rejoice together.For in this case the saying is true:‘ One sows and another reaps.’I sent you to reap what you didn’t labor for; others have labored, and you have benefited from their labor.”

In the morning sow your seed, and at evening do not let your hand rest, because you don’t know which will succeed, whether one or the other, or if both of them will be equally good.

He said, therefore,“ What is the kingdom of God like, and what can I compare it to?

He answered,“ Because the secrets of the kingdom of heaven have been given for you to know, but it has not been given to them.

From then on Jesus began to preach,“ Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near.”

“ A sower went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some seed fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds of the sky devoured it.

Truly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains by itself. But if it dies, it produces much fruit.

I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.So, then, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.For we are God’s coworkers. You are God’s field, God’s building.

The wicked person earns an empty wage, but the one who sows righteousness, a true reward.

He presented another parable to them:“ The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.

One who watches the wind will not sow, and the one who looks at the clouds will not reap.

“ This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

“ Listen! Consider the sower who went out to sow.As he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

and saying,“ Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near!”

And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who cultivate peace.

The sower sows the word.Some are like the word sown on the path. When they hear, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word sown in them.And others are like seed sown on rocky ground. When they hear the word, immediately they receive it with joy.But they have no root; they are short-lived. When distress or persecution comes because of the word, they immediately fall away.Others are like seed sown among thorns; these are the ones who hear the word,but the worries of this age, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.And those like seed sown on good ground hear the word, welcome it, and produce fruit thirty, sixty, and a hundred times what was sown.”

Does the plowman plow every day to plant seed? Does he continuously break up and cultivate the soil?When he has leveled its surface, does he not then scatter black cumin and sow cumin? He plants wheat in rows and barley in plots, with spelt as their border.His God teaches him order; he instructs him.

Then he told them many things in parables, saying,“ Consider the sower who went out to sow.

He told them another parable:“ The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into fifty pounds of flour until all of it was leavened.”

You will be happy as you sow seed beside abundant water, and as you let oxen and donkeys range freely.
