Clementine Vulgate, 1598
World English Bible
1Et iterum cœpit docere ad mare: et congregata est ad eum turba multa, ita ut navim ascendens sederet in mari, et omnis turba circa mare super terram erat:
1Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.
2et docebat eos in parabolis multa, et dicebat illis in doctrina sua:
2He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
3Audite: ecce exiit seminans ad seminandum.
3“Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow.
4Et dum seminat, aliud cecidit circa viam, et venerunt volucres cæli, et comederunt illud.
4As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
5Aliud vero cecidit super petrosa, ubi non habuit terram multam: et statim exortum est, quoniam non habebat altitudinem terræ:
5Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
6et quando exortus est sol, exæstuavit: et eo quod non habebat radicem, exaruit.
6When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7Et aliud cecidit in spinas: et ascenderunt spinæ, et suffocaverunt illud, et fructum non dedit.
7Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8Et aliud cecidit in terram bonam: et dabat fructum ascendentem et crescentem, et afferebat unum triginta, unum sexaginta, et unum centum.
8Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”
9Et dicebat: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
9He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10Et cum esset singularis, interrogaverunt eum hi qui cum eo erant duodecim, parabolam.
10When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
11Et dicebat eis: Vobis datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei: illis autem, qui foris sunt, in parabolis omnia fiunt:
11He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
12ut videntes videant, et non videant: et audientes audiant, et non intelligant: nequando convertantur, et dimittantur eis peccata.
12that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’”
13Et ait illis: Nescitis parabolam hanc? Et quomodo omnes parabolas cognoscetis?
13He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?
14Qui seminat, verbum seminat.
14The farmer sows the word.
15Hi autem sunt, qui circa viam, ubi seminatur verbum, et cum audierint, confestim venit Satanas, et aufert verbum, quod seminatum est in cordibus eorum.
15The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
16Et hi sunt similiter, qui super petrosa seminantur: qui cum audierint verbum, statim cum gaudio accipiunt illud:
16These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
17et non habent radicem in se, sed temporales sunt: deinde orta tribulatione et persecutione propter verbum, confestim scandalizantur.
17They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
18Et alii sunt qui in spinas seminantur: hi sunt qui verbum audiunt,
18Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
19et ærumnæ sæculi, et deceptio divitiarum, et circa reliqua concupiscentiæ introëuntes suffocant verbum, et sine fructu efficitur.
19and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
20Et hi sunt qui super terram bonam seminati sunt, qui audiunt verbum, et suscipiunt, et fructificant, unum triginta, unum sexaginta, et unum centum.
20Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”
21Et dicebat illis: Numquid venit lucerna ut sub modo ponatur, aut sub lecto? nonne ut super candelabrum ponatur?
21He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Isn’t it put on a stand?
22Non est enim aliquid absconditum, quod non manifestetur: nec factum est occultum, sed ut in palam veniat.
22For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light.
23Si quis habet aures audiendi, audiat.
23If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”
24Et dicebat illis: Videte quid audiatis. In qua mensura mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis, et adjicietur vobis.
24He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you; and more will be given to you who hear.
25Qui enim habet, dabitur illi: et qui non habet, etiam quod habet auferetur ab eo.
25For whoever has, to him more will be given; and he who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”
26Et dicebat: Sic est regnum Dei, quemadmodum si homo jaciat sementem in terram,
26He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
27et dormiat, et exsurgat nocte et die, et semen germinet, et increscat dum nescit ille.
27and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, though he doesn’t know how.
28Ultro enim terra fructificat, primum herbam, deinde spicam, deinde plenum frumentum in spica.
28For the earth bears fruit by itself: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29Et cum produxerit fructus, statim mittit falcem, quoniam adest messis.
29But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
30Et dicebat: Cui assimilabimus regnum Dei? aut cui parabolæ comparabimus illud?
30He said, “How will we liken God’s Kingdom? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
31Sicut granum sinapis, quod cum seminatum fuerit in terra, minus est omnibus seminibus, quæ sunt in terra:
31It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
32et cum seminatum fuerit, ascendit, et fit majus omnibus oleribus, et facit ramos magnos, ita ut possint sub umbra ejus aves cæli habitare.
32yet when it is sown, grows up and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”
33Et talibus multis parabolis loquebatur eis verbum, prout poterant audire:
33With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
34sine parabola autem non loquebatur eis: seorsum autem discipulis suis disserebat omnia.
34Without a parable he didn’t speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
35Et ait illis in illa die, cum sero esset factum: Transeamus contra.
35On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”
36Et dimittentes turbam, assumunt eum ita ut erat in navi: et aliæ naves erant cum illo.
36Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.
37Et facta est procella magna venti, et fluctus mittebat in navim, ita ut impleretur navis.
37A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
38Et erat ipse in puppi super cervical dormiens: et excitant eum, et dicunt illi: Magister, non ad te pertinet, quia perimus?
38He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and asked him, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are dying?”
39Et exsurgens comminatus est vento, et dixit mari: Tace, obmutesce. Et cessavit ventus: et facta est tranquillitas magna.
39He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was a great calm.
40Et ait illis: Quid timidi estis? necdum habetis fidem? et timuerunt timore magno, et dicebant ad alterutrum: Quis, putas, est iste, quia et ventus et mare obediunt ei?
40He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
no verse 41 in this text
41They were greatly afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
