Matthew 13:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying: Behold the sower went forth to sow.

⁴ And whilst he soweth some fell by the way side, and the birds of the air came and ate them up.

⁵ And other some fell upon stony ground, where they had not much earth: and they sprung up immediately, because they had no deepness of earth.
