The parable of the sower, and what it means

씨 뿌리는 자의 비유와 그 뜻

Luke 8:4–15: when a great multitude comes together and people from every city are coming to Jesus, he speaks by a parable: the farmer went out to sow his seed; as he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it; some fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture; some fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it; some fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit. He calls out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” His disciples ask him what this parable means. He answers that to them it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that “seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand,” and he explains the parable: the seed is the word of God. Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy, but have no root: they believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation. What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and they bring no fruit to maturity. Those in the good ground are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly and produce fruit with perseverance.

⁴When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
⁵“The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
⁶Some seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
⁷Some fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
⁸Some fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
⁹Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
¹⁰He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
¹¹“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
¹²Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
¹³Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
¹⁴What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
¹⁵Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
