4 Then the word of the Lord Almighty came to me: 5 “Ask all the people of the land and the priests, ‘When you fasted(A) and mourned in the fifth and seventh(B) months for the past seventy years,(C) was it really for me that you fasted? 6 And when you were eating and drinking, were you not just feasting for yourselves?(D) 7 Are these not the words the Lord proclaimed through the earlier prophets(E) when Jerusalem and its surrounding towns were at rest(F) and prosperous, and the Negev and the western foothills(G) were settled?’”(H)

1 Corinthians 9:7-12
New International Version
7 Who serves as a soldier(A) at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard(B) and does not eat its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink the milk? 8 Do I say this merely on human authority? Doesn’t the Law say the same thing? 9 For it is written in the Law of Moses: “Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain.”[a](C) Is it about oxen that God is concerned?(D) 10 Surely he says this for us, doesn’t he? Yes, this was written for us,(E) because whoever plows and threshes should be able to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest.(F) 11 If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you?(G) 12 If others have this right of support from you, shouldn’t we have it all the more?
But we did not use this right.(H) On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder(I) the gospel of Christ.

Matthew 13:3-16
New International Version
3 Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4 As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred,(A) sixty or thirty times what was sown. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.”(B)
10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”
11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven(C) has been given to you,(D) but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.(E) 13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
“Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.(F)
14 In them is fulfilled(G) the prophecy of Isaiah:
“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a](H)
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.(I)
