Luke 8:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ Some seed fell among thorny weeds, but the weeds grew up with it and choked ·the good plants [^Lit]. ⁸ And ·some [^Lother] seed fell on good ·ground [soil] and grew and made a hundred times more.”

As Jesus finished the story, he called out, “·Let those with ears use them and listen [^LThe one who has ears to hear, let him hear]!”

⁹ Jesus’ ·followers [disciples] asked him what this ·story [parable] meant.
