And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root it became dry and dead.

δὲ de “now”

And some seeds went among thorns, and the thorns came up and they had no room for growth:

And he said to them in answer, To you is given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

Because whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have more; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

δὲ de “now”

But a blessing be on your eyes, because they see; and on your ears, because they are open.

δὲ de “however”

And that which went on the stones, this is he who, hearing the word, straight away takes it with joy;

δὲ de “now”

But having no root in himself, he goes on for a time; and when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, he quickly becomes full of doubts.

δὲ de “now”δὲ de “however”

And that which was dropped among the thorns, this is he who has the word; and the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, put a stop to the growth of the word and it gives no fruit.

δὲ de “now”

And the seed which was put in good earth, this is he who gives ear to the word, and gets the sense of it; who gives fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

δὲ de “now”

And he said, Someone has done this in hate. And the servants say to him, Is it your pleasure that we go and take them up?

δὲ de “and”

Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.

δὲ de “however”

And he made answer and said, He who puts the good seed in the earth is the Son of man;

And the field is the world; and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom; and the evil seeds are the sons of the Evil One;

δὲ de “and”δὲ de “and”δὲ de “and”
