THE PRECEPTS OF JESUS.
forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some
thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. And
the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakestthou
unto them in parables ; He answered and said unto
them, Because it is given unto you to know the myster-
ies of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not
given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and
he shall have more abundance : but whosoever hath
not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
Therefore speak I to them in parables : beacause they
seeing, see not ; and hearing they hear not, neither do
they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy
of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and
shall not understand ; and seeing ye shall see, and shall
not perceive : for this people's heart is waxed gross,
and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes
they have closed ; lest at any time they should see with
their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should
understand with their heart, and should be converted,
and I should heal them. But blessed arc your eyes,
for they see : and your ears, for they hear. For verily
I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous
men have desired to see those things which ye see,
and have not seen them ; and to hear those things which
ye hear, and have not heard them. Hear ye therefore
the parable of the sower. When any one heareth the
'-word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then
cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which
was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed
by the wayside. But he that received the seed into
stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and
anon with joy receiveth it ; yet hath he not root in him-
