New Testament in a Year
21 ¶ [a]Also he said unto them, (A)Cometh the candle in, to be put under a bushel, or under the bed, and not to be put in a candlestick?
22 (B)For there is nothing hid, that shall not be opened, neither is there a secret, but that it shall come to light.
23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
24 [b]And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear. (C)With what measure you mete, it shall be measured unto you: and unto you that hear, shall more be given.
25 (D)For unto him that hath, shall it be given, and from him that hath not, shall be taken away even that he hath.
26 ¶ [c]Also he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed in the ground.
27 And [d]should sleep, and rise up night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he [e]not knowing how.
28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit [f]of itself, first the blade, then the ears, after that full corn in the ears.
29 And as soon as the fruit showeth itself, anon he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 ¶ (E)[g]He said moreover, 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 the least of all seeds that be in the earth:
32 But after that it is sown, it groweth up, and is greatest of all herbs, and beareth great branches, so that the fowls of the heaven may build under the shadow of it.
33 And (F)with many such parables he preached the word unto them, [h]as they were able to hear it.
34 And without parables spake he nothing unto them: but he [i]expounded all things to his disciples apart.
35 ¶ (G)Now the same day when even was come, he said unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
36 And they left the multitude, and took him as he was in the ship, and there was also with him other little ships.
37 [j]And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves dashed into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the stern asleep on a pillow: and they awoke him, and said to him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 And he arose up, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, and be still. So the wind ceased, and it was a great calm.
40 Then he said unto them, [k]Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who is this, that both the wind and sea obey him?
