And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude came unto him, and he taught them.

The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

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.

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

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

But others fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

And when many people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spoke by a parable:

And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bore fruit a hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and asked him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.
