Ang Talinghaga ng Manghahasik(A)

Siya'y(B) muling nagpasimulang magturo sa tabi ng dagat. At nagtipon sa palibot niya ang napakaraming tao, kaya't siya'y sumakay sa isang bangkang nasa lawa at naupo roon. Ang lahat ng tao ay nasa dalampasigan.

Sila'y tinuruan niya ng maraming bagay sa pamamagitan ng mga talinghaga at sa kanyang pagtuturo ay sinabi niya sa kanila,

“Makinig kayo. Ang isang manghahasik ay lumabas upang maghasik.

At nangyari, sa kanyang paghahasik, ang ilang binhi ay nahulog sa tabi ng daan at nagdatingan ang mga ibon at kinain ito.

Ang iba ay nahulog sa batuhan na doo'y walang maraming lupa. Agad itong sumibol sapagkat hindi malalim ang lupa.

Nang sumikat ang araw, nainitan ito at dahil sa walang ugat, ito'y natuyo.

Ang iba ay nahulog sa tinikan at lumaki ang mga tinik at sinakal ito, at ito'y hindi namunga.

Ang iba ay nahulog sa mabuting lupa at namunga, na tumataas, lumalago at namumunga ng tatlumpu, animnapu, at isandaan.”

At sinabi niya, “Ang may taingang pandinig ay makinig.”

Ang Layunin ng mga Talinghaga(C)

10 Nang siya'y mag-isa na, ang mga nasa palibot niya kasama ang labindalawa ay nagtanong sa kanya tungkol sa mga talinghaga.

11 At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Sa inyo ipinagkaloob ang hiwaga ng kaharian ng Diyos, ngunit sa kanilang nasa labas, ang lahat ng mga bagay ay ginagawa sa mga talinghaga;

12 upang(D) kung sa pagtingin ay hindi sila makakita; at sa pakikinig ay hindi sila makaunawa, baka sila'y magbalik-loob at mapatawad.”

13 At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Hindi ba ninyo nalalaman ang talinghagang ito? Paano nga ninyo mauunawaan ang lahat ng mga talinghaga?

14 Ang manghahasik ay naghahasik ng salita.

15 Ito ang mga nasa tabi ng daan na nahasikan ng salita. Nang kanilang mapakinggan ito, agad dumating si Satanas at inagaw ang salitang inihasik sa kanila.

16 Gayundin naman ang mga nahasik sa batuhan, nang marinig nila ang salita, agad nila itong tinanggap na may galak;

17 at hindi ito nagkaugat sa kanilang sarili, kundi panandalian lamang. Kaya't nang dumating ang kapighatian o ang mga pag-uusig dahil sa salita, kaagad silang tumatalikod.[a]

18 Ang iba'y nahasik sa tinikan. Ang mga ito ang nakinig ng salita,

19 ngunit ang mga alalahanin ng sanlibutan, ang pang-akit ng mga kayamanan, at ang mga pagnanasa sa ibang bagay ay pumasok at sinakal ang salita at ito'y hindi nakapamunga.

20 Ang mga ito ang nahasik sa mabuting lupa: narinig nila ang salita, tinanggap ito at namumunga ng tatlumpu, animnapu at isandaan.”

Ang Ilawan sa Ilalim ng Takalan(E)

21 At(F) sinabi niya sa kanila, “Inilalabas ba ang ilawan upang ilagay sa ilalim ng takalan, o sa ilalim ng higaan, at hindi sa talagang lalagyan ng ilawan?

22 Sapagkat(G) walang bagay na nakatago na hindi ihahayag; o walang nalilihim na hindi ilalantad sa liwanag.

23 Kung ang sinuman ay may taingang ipandirinig, hayaan siyang makinig.”

24 At(H) sinabi niya sa kanila, “Pag-ingatan ninyo kung ano ang inyong pinapakinggan: sa panukat na inyong isinusukat, kayo'y susukatin; at higit pa ang sa inyo'y ibibigay.

25 Sapagkat(I) ang mayroon ay lalo pang bibigyan; at ang wala, pati na ang nasa kanya ay kukunin pa.”

Ang Binhing Tumutubo

26 Sinabi niya, “Ang kaharian ng Diyos ay gaya ng isang taong naghahasik ng binhi sa lupa,

27 at natutulog at bumabangon siya sa gabi at araw. Sumisibol at lumalaki ang binhi na hindi niya nalalaman kung paano.

28 Ang lupa mismo ang nagpapasibol sa halaman,[b] una ang usbong, saka ang uhay, pagkatapos ay ang uhay na hitik sa butil.

29 Ngunit(J) kapag hinog na ang bunga, agad niyang kinukuha ang karit, sapagkat dumating na ang pag-aani.”

Ang Butil ng Mustasa(K)

30 Kanyang sinabi, “Sa ano natin maihahambing ang kaharian ng Diyos; o anong talinghaga ang gagamitin natin para dito?

31 Ito'y tulad sa butil ng binhi ng mustasa na kapag naihasik sa lupa, bagama't siyang pinakamaliit sa lahat ng mga binhi na nasa lupa,

32 ngunit kapag ito'y naihasik ay tumutubo, nagiging mas malaki kaysa lahat ng mga halaman, at nagsasanga ng malalaki, anupa't ang mga ibon sa himpapawid ay nakakagawa ng mga pugad sa lilim nito.”

Ang mga Talinghaga ni Jesus

33 Sa pamamagitan ng gayong maraming talinghaga, sinabi niya sa kanila ang salita, ayon sa kakayahan nilang makinig.

34 At hindi siya nagsalita sa kanila maliban sa talinghaga ngunit sa kanyang sariling mga alagad ay sarilinan niyang ipinapaliwanag ang lahat ng mga bagay.

Pinatigil ni Jesus ang Unos(L)

35 Nang araw ding iyon, nang sumapit na ang gabi ay sinabi niya sa kanila, “Tumawid tayo sa kabilang ibayo.”

36 Pagkaiwan sa maraming tao, siya'y kanilang isinama sa bangka, ayon sa kanyang kalagayan. At may iba pang mga bangka na kasama niya.

37 At nagkaroon ng isang malakas na unos, sumalpok ang mga alon sa bangka, anupa't ang bangka ay halos napupuno na ng tubig.

38 Ngunit siya'y nasa hulihan ng bangka at natutulog na may inuunan. Siya'y ginising nila, at sinabi sa kanya, “Guro, hindi ka ba nababahala na mapapahamak tayo?”

39 Paggising niya ay sinaway niya ang hangin at sinabi sa dagat, “Pumayapa ka. Tumahimik ka!” Tumigil nga ang hangin at nagkaroon ng katahimikan.

40 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Bakit kayo natakot? Wala ba kayong pananampalataya?”

41 Sila'y sinidlan ng malaking takot at sinabi sa isa't isa, “Sino nga ito, na pati ang hangin at ang dagat ay sumusunod sa kanya?”

And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

14 The sower soweth the word.

15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

21 And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

30 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.

34 But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

The Parable of the Sower(A)

And (B)again He began to teach by the sea. And a great multitude was gathered to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole multitude was on the land facing the sea. Then He taught them many things by parables, (C)and said to them in His teaching:

“Listen! Behold, a sower went out to sow. And it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds [a]of the air came and devoured it. Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth. But when the sun was up it was scorched, and because it had no root it withered away. And some seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no [b]crop. But other seed fell on good ground and yielded a crop that sprang up, increased and produced: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.”

And He said [c]to them, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

The Purpose of Parables(D)

10 (E)But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable. 11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to (F)know the [d]mystery of the kingdom of God; but to (G)those who are outside, all things come in parables, 12 so that

(H)‘Seeing they may see and not perceive,
And hearing they may hear and not understand;
Lest they should turn,
And their sins be forgiven them.’

The Parable of the Sower Explained(I)

13 And He said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables? 14 (J)The sower sows the word. 15 And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts. 16 These likewise are the ones sown on stony ground who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 and they have no root in themselves, and so endure only for a time. Afterward, when tribulation or persecution arises for the word’s sake, immediately they stumble. 18 Now these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word, 19 and the (K)cares of this world, (L)the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. 20 But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, [e]accept it, and bear (M)fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.”

Light Under a Basket(N)

21 (O)Also He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand? 22 (P)For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light. 23 (Q)If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24 Then He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. (R)With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given. 25 (S)For whoever has, to him more will be given; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

The Parable of the Growing Seed

26 And He said, (T)“The kingdom of God is as if a man should [f]scatter seed on the ground, 27 and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and (U)grow, he himself does not know how. 28 For the earth (V)yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. 29 But when the grain ripens, immediately (W)he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

The Parable of the Mustard Seed(X)

30 Then He said, (Y)“To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or with what parable shall we picture it? 31 It is like a mustard seed which, when it is sown on the ground, is smaller than all the seeds on earth; 32 but when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade.”

Jesus’ Use of Parables

33 (Z)And with many such parables He spoke the word to them as they were able to hear it. 34 But without a parable He did not speak to them. And when they were alone, (AA)He explained all things to His disciples.

Wind and Wave Obey Jesus(AB)

35 (AC)On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” 36 Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. 38 But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, (AD)“Teacher, (AE)do You not care that we are perishing?”

39 Then He arose and (AF)rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, (AG)“Peace,[g] be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. 40 But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? (AH)How[h] is it that you have no faith?” 41 And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, “Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!”
