CAPITULO XIII.

CHAPTER XIII.

HE same day went Jesus

mar.

de casa, se á la

2 Y se allegaron a él grandes multitudes; y entrándose él en una nave, se sentó, y toda la multitud estaba en la ribera.

3 Y les habló muchas cosas por parábolas, diciendo: He aquí, el que sembraba salió á sembrar.

4 Y sembrando, parte de la simiente cayó junto al camino, y vinieron las aves, y la comie

ron.

5 Y parte cayó en pedregales, donde no tenia mucha tierra; y nacio luego, porque no tenia tierra profunda:

6 Mas en saliendo el sol, se quemó, y se secó, porque no tenia raiz.

7 Y parte cayó entre espinas, y las espinas crecieron, y la ahogaron.

8 Y parte cayó en buena tierra, y dió fruto; uno de á ciento, y otro de á sesenta, y otro de á treinta.

9 Quien tiene oidos para oir, oiga.

10 Entonces llegándose los discípulos, le dijeron: ¿Por qué les hablas por parábolas?

11 Y él respondiendo, les dijo: Porque a vosotros es concedido saber los misterios del reino de los cielos, mas á ellos no es concedido.

12 Porque á cualquiera que tiene, se le dará, y tendrá mas; mas al que no tiene, aun lo que tiene le será quitado.

13 Por eso les hablo por parábolas; porque viendo no ven,

the sea side.

2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to SOW;

4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some a hundred fold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they see

14 De manera que se cumple en ellos la profecía de Isaías, que dice: De oido oireis, y no entendereis; y viendo vereis, y no percibireis.

15 Porque el corazon de este pueblo está engrosado, y de los oidos oyen pesadamente, y de sus ojos guiñan; para que no vean de los ojos, y oigan de los oidos, y del corazon entiendan, y se conviertan, y yo los sane.

16 Mas bienaventurados vuestros ojos, porque ven; y vuestros oidos, porque oyen.

17 Porque de cierto os digo, que muchos profetas y justos desearon ver lo que vosotros veis, y no lo vieron; y oir lo que vosotros ois, y no lo oyeron.

18 Oid pues vosotros la parábola del que siembra.

14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

15 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. 16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

20 Y el que fué sembrado en pedregales, este es el que oye la palabra, y luego la recibe con gozo.

21 Mas no tiene raiz en sí, ántes es temporal; porque venida la afliccion ó la persecucion por la palabra, luego se ofende.

22 Y el que fué sembrado en espinas, este es el que oye la palabra; mas la congoja de este siglo y el engaño de las riquezas ahogan la palabra, y viene á quedar sin fruto.

23 Mas el que fué sembrado en buena tierra, este es el que oye y entiende la palabra, el que

derstandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while : for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. 22 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.

23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and under

24 Otra parábola les propuso, diciendo: El reino de los cielos es semejante á un hombre que siembra buena simiente en su campo.

25 Mas durmiendo los hombres, vino su enemigo, y sembró cizaña entre el trigo, y se fué.

26 Y como la yerba salió, y hizo fruto, entonces la cizaña pareció tambien.

27 Y llegándose los siervos del padre de familias, le dijeron: Señor, ¿no sembraste buena simiente en tu campo? Pues de dónde tiene cizaña? 28 Y él les dijo: Algun enemigo ha hecho esto. Y los siervos le dijeron: ¿Pues quieres que vayamos, y la cojamos?

29 Y él dijo: No; porque cogiendo la cizaña, no arranqueis tambien con ella el trigo.

30 Dejad crecer juntamente lo uno y lo otro hasta la siega; y al tiempo de la siega yo dire a los segadores; Coged primero la cizaña, y atádla en manojos para quemarla; mas el trigo allegádlo en mi alfolí.

31 Otra parábola les propuso, diciendo: El reino de los cielos es semejante al grano de mostaza, que tomándolo alguno lo sembró en su campo:

32 El cual á la verdad es el mas pequeño de todas las simientes; mas cuando ha crecido, es el mayor de todas las hortalizas; y se hace árbol, que vienen las aves del cielo, y hacen nidos en sus ramas.

33 Otra parábola les dijo: El reino de los cielos es semejante á la levadura, que tomándola una muger, la esconde en tres medidas de harina, hasta que todo se leude.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: 32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

34 Todo esto habló Jesus por parábolas á la multitud; y nada les habló sin parábolas;

35 Para que se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta, que dijo: Abriré en parábolas mi boca: rebosaré cosas escondidas desde la fundacion del mundo.

36 Entonces, enviadas las multitudes, Jesus se vino á casa; llegándose á él sus discípulos, le dijeron: Decláranos la parábola de la cizaña del campo.

37 Y respondiendo él, les dijo: El que siembra la buena simiente es el Hijo del hombre. 38 El campo es el mundo; la buena simiente son los hijos del reino; y la cizaña son los hijos del Malo;

39 El enemigo que la sembró, es el Diablo; la siega es el fin del mundo; y los segadores son los ángeles.

40 De manera que como es cogida la cizaña, y quemada á fuego, así será en el fin de este siglo.

41 Enviará el Hijo del hombre sus ángeles, y cogerán de su reino todos los estorbos, y los que hacen iniquidad;

34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:

35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; 39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. 44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

45 Again, the kingdom of . heaven is like unto a merchantman, seeking goodly pearls:

46 Que hallando una preciosa perla, fué, y vendió todo lo que tenia, y la compró.

47 Tambien el reino de los cielos es semejante á una red, que echada en la mar, coge de todas suertes:

48 La cual siendo llena, la sacaron á la orilla; y sentados cogieron lo bueno en vasijas, y lo malo echaron fuera.

49 Así será en el fin del siglo : saldrán los ángeles, y apartarán á los malos de entre los justos,

50 Y los echarán en el horno del fuego: alli será el lloro, y el crugir de dientes.

51 Díceles Jesus: ¿Habeis entendido todas estas cosas? Ellos responden: Si, Señor.

52 Y él les dijo: Por eso todo escriba docto en el reino de los cielos es semejante á un padre de familia, que saca de su tesoro cosas nuevas y cosas viejas.

53 ¶Y aconteció que acabando Jesus estas parábolas, pasó de allí.

54 Y venido á su tierra, les enseñó en la sinagoga de ellos, de tal manera que ellos estaban fuera de sí, y decian: ¿De dónde tiene este esta sabiduría, y estas maravillas?

55 & No es este el hijo del carpintero? No se llama su madre María; y sus hermanos, Santiago, y Joses, y Simon, y Judas?

56 ¿Y no están todas sus hermanas con nosotros? ¿De dónde pues tiene este todo esto?

57 Y se escandalizaban en él; mas Jesus les dijo: No hay profeta sin honra, sino en su tierra, y en su casa.

46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad

away.

49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven, is like unto a man that is a householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.

53 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence. 54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?

55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and

Judas?

56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? 57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
