| 1 | The same day Jesus going out of the house, sat by the sea side. | in illo die exiens Iesus de domo sedebat secus mare |
| 2 | And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went up into a boat and sat: and all the multitude stood on the shore. | et congregatae sunt ad eum turbae multae ita ut in naviculam ascendens sederet et omnis turba stabat in litore |
| 3 | And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying: Behold the sower went forth to sow. | et locutus est eis multa in parabolis dicens ecce exiit qui seminat seminare |
| 4 | And whilst he soweth some fell by the way side, and the birds of the air came and ate them up. | et dum seminat quaedam ceciderunt secus viam et venerunt volucres et comederunt ea |
| 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. | alia autem ceciderunt in petrosa ubi non habebat terram multam et continuo exorta sunt quia non habebant altitudinem terrae |
| 6 | And when the sun was up they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away. | sole autem orto aestuaverunt et quia non habebant radicem aruerunt |
| 7 | And others fell among thorns: and the thorns grew up and choked them. | alia autem ceciderunt in spinas et creverunt spinae et suffocaverunt ea |
| 8 | And others fell upon good ground: and they brought forth fruit, some an hundred fold, some sixty fold, and some thirty fold. | alia vero ceciderunt in terram bonam et dabant fructum aliud centesimum aliud sexagesimum aliud tricesimum |
| 9 | He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. | qui habet aures audiendi audiat |
