¹Guero berriz has cedin iracasten itsas bazterrean: eta bil cedin harengana gendetze handi, hala non bera vncira sarthuric, iarriric baitzegoen itsassoan: eta populu gucia itsas costan leihorrean cen.

¹And again he began to teach by the sea, and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he, having gone into the boat, sat in the sea, and all the multitude was near the sea, on the land,

²Eta iracasten cerauen comparationez anhitz gauça, eta erraiten cerauen bere doctrinán,

²and he taught them many things in similes, and he said to them in his teaching:

³Ençun eçaçue, Huná, ereillebat ilki cedin ereitara.

³`Hearken, lo, the sower went forth to sow;

⁴Eta guertha cedin ereitean, partebat eror baitzedin bide bazterrera, eta ethor citecen ceruco choriac, eta irets ceçaten hura.

⁴and it came to pass, in the sowing, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven did come and devour it;

⁵Eta berce partebat eror cedin leku harriçuetara, non ezpaitzuen lur anhitzic: eta bertan ilki cedin, ceren ezpaitzuen lur barnetassunic.

⁵and other fell upon the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprang forth, because of not having depth of earth,

⁶Baina iguzquia goratu cenean, erre cedin: eta ceren erroric ezpaitzuen, eyhar cedin.

⁶and the sun having risen, it was scorched, and because of not having root it did wither;

⁷Eta berce partebat eror cedin elhorri artera, eta elhorriac handi citecen, eta itho ceçaten hura, eta etzeçan fructuric eman.

⁷and other fell toward the thorns, and the thorns did come up, and choke it, and fruit it gave not;

⁸Eta bercea eror cedin lur-onera, eta eman ceçan fructu goratzen eta handitzen cenic, eta ekar ceçan bihi batac hoguey eta hamar, eta berceac hiruroguey, eta berceac ehun.

⁸and other fell to the good ground, and was giving fruit, coming up and increasing, and it bare, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.`

⁹Orduan erran ciecén, Ençuteco beharriric duenac, ençun beça.

⁹And he said to them, `He who is having ears to hear — let him hear.`

¹⁰Eta bera cela, interroga ceçaten haren inguruän hamabiequin ciradenéc, comparationeaz.

¹⁰And when he was alone, those about him, with the twelve, did ask him of the simile,

¹¹Eta erran ciecén, Çuey eman çaiçue Iaincoaren resumaco secretuaren eçagutzea: baina lekorean diradeney comparationez gauça guciac tractatzen çaizte:

¹¹and he said to them, `To you it hath been given to know the secret of the reign of God, but to those who are without, in similes are all the things done;

¹²Dacussatela ikus deçatençat, eta eztaquizquión ohart: eta dançutela ençun deçaten, eta adi ezteçaten: conuerti eztitecen eta bekatuac barka eztaquizquién.

¹²that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest they may turn, and the sins may be forgiven them.`

¹³Eta erran ciecen, Eztaquiçue comparatione haur? Eta nolatan comparatione guciac eçagutiren dituçue?

¹³And he saith to them, `Have ye not known this simile? and how shall ye know all the similes?

¹⁴Ereilleac hitza ereiten du.

¹⁴He who is sowing doth sow the word;

¹⁵Bada hauc dirade bide bazterrera hacia recebitzen dutenac, ceinétan ereiten baita hitza: baina ençun dutenean, bertan ethorten da Satan, eta kencen du hayen bihotzetan erein cen hitza.

¹⁵and these are they by the way where the word is sown: and whenever they may hear, immediately cometh the Adversary, and he taketh away the word that hath been sown in their hearts.

¹⁶Eta hauc dirade halaber leku harriçuetara hacia recebitzen dutenac: eta ençun dutenean hitza, bertan bozcariorequin recebitzen dute hura.

¹⁶`And these are they, in like manner, who on the rocky ground are sown: who, whenever they may hear the word, immediately with joy do receive it,

¹⁷Eta eztute erroric berac baithan, baina iraute gutitaco dirade: guero heltzen denean tribulationeric edo persecutioneric hitzagatic, bertan scandalizatzen dirade.

¹⁷and have not root in themselves, but are temporary; afterward tribulation or persecution having come because of the word, immediately they are stumbled.

¹⁸Eta hauc dirade elhorri artera hacia recebitzen dutenac, hauc dirade, diot, hacia ençuten dutenac:

¹⁸`And these are they who toward the thorns are sown: these are they who are hearing the word,

¹⁹Baina mundu hunetaco ansiéc, eta abrastassunezco enganioac, eta berce gaucetaco guthiciéc barneraric ithotzen dute hitza, eta fructu gabetzen da.

¹⁹and the anxieties of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, and the desires concerning the other things, entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

²⁰Eta hauc dirade lur onera hacia recebitu dutenac, ceinéc hitza ençuten baitute, eta recebitzen, eta fructu ekarten, batac hoguey eta hamar, eta berceac hiruroguey, eta berceac ehun.

²⁰`And these are they who on the good ground have been sown: who do hear the word, and receive, and do bear fruit, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.`

²¹Erran ciecén halaber, Ala candela ekarten da gaitzurupean, edo ohapean eçar dadinçat? eza candelerean eçar dadinçat?

²¹And he said to them, `Doth the lamp come that under the measure it may be put, or under the couch — not that it may be put on the lamp-stand?

²²Ecen ezta deus secreturic aguerturen eztenic, edo estal ahal daitenic: baina campora ethorri behar da.

²²for there is not anything hid that may not be manifested, nor was anything kept hid but that it may come to light.

²³Baldin nehorc ençuteco beharriric badu, ençun beça.

²³If any hath ears to hear — let him hear.`

²⁴Guehiago erran ciecén, Gogoauçue cer ençuten duçuen: cer neurriz neurturen baituçue, neurturen çaiçue, eta emendaturen çaiçue, çuey ençuten duçuenoy.

²⁴And he said to them, `Take heed what ye hear; in what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you who hear it shall be added;

²⁵Ecen duenari, emanen çayó: eta deusic eztuenari, duena-ere edequiren çayó.

²⁵for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever hath not, also that which he hath shall be taken from him.`

²⁶Guehiago erraiten çuen, Iaincoaren resumá da, guiçón hacia lurrera egotziric gau eta egun lo etzaten eta iaiquiten liçaten baten ançora.

²⁶And he said, `Thus is the reign of God: as if a man may cast the seed on the earth,

²⁷Eta hacia ilkiten eta hatzen licén, harc ezlaquiala nola,

²⁷and may sleep, and may rise night and day, and the seed spring up and grow, he hath not known how;

²⁸Ecen bere buruz lurrac fructu ekarten du, behin belhar, guero buru, guero ogui bihi bethea buruän.

²⁸for of itself doth the earth bear fruit, first a blade, afterwards an ear, afterwards full corn in the ear;

²⁹Eta aguertu denean fructua, bertan guiçonac du eçarten iguiteyá: ceren prest baita vztá.

²⁹and whenever the fruit may yield itself, immediately he doth send forth the sickle, because the harvest hath come.`

³⁰Guero cioen, Cer irudi duela erranen dugu Iaincoaren resumác? edo cer comparationez comparaturen dugu hura?

³⁰And he said, `To what may we liken the reign of God, or in what simile may we compare it?

³¹Hura da mustarda haci bihibat beçala, cein lurrean ereiten denean, baita lurrean diraden haci gucietaco chipiena:

³¹As a grain of mustard, which, whenever it may be sown on the earth, is less than any of the seeds that are on the earth;

³²Baina erein den ondoan, goratzen da, eta berce belhar gucietaco handiena eguiten da: eta adar handiac eguiten ditu hala non ceruco choriec ohatzeac eguin ahal baititzaqueizte haren itzalean.

³²and whenever it may be sown, it cometh up, and doth become greater than any of the herbs, and doth make great branches, so that under its shade the fowls of the heaven are able to rest.`

³³Eta anhitz hunelaco comparationez tractatzen cerauen hitza, ençun ahal ciroitenaren araura.

³³And with many such similes he was speaking to them the word, as they were able to hear,

³⁴Eta comparatione gabe etzayen minçatzen: baina appartean bere discipuluey declaratzen cerauzten gauça guciac.

³⁴and without a simile he was not speaking to them, and by themselves, to his disciples he was expounding all.

³⁵Eta erran ciecén egun hartan, arrastu cenean, Iragan gáitecen vraren berce aldera.

³⁵And he saith to them on that day, evening having come, `We may pass over to the other side;`

³⁶Eta populua vtziric har ceçaten hura vncian cen beçala: baina berce vncitchoac-ere baciraden harequin.

³⁶and having let away the multitude, they take him up as he was in the boat, and other little boats also were with him.

³⁷Orduan altcha cedin haice buhumba handibat, eta bagác sartzen ciraden vncira, hala non ia bethatzen baitzén.

³⁷And there cometh a great storm of wind, and the waves were beating on the boat, so that it is now being filled,

³⁸Eta hura vnciaren guibeleco aldean cetzan lo bururdi baten gainean: orduan iratzartzen dute, eta diotsate, Magistruá, eztuc ansiaric ceren galduac goacen?

³⁸and he himself was upon the stern, upon the pillow sleeping, and they wake him up, and say to him, `Teacher, art thou not caring that we perish?`

³⁹Eta iratzarri cenean mehatcha ceçan haicea, eta erran cieçón itsassoari, Ichil adi, eta gueldi adi. Orduan cessa cedin haicea, eta tranquilitate handi eguin cedin.

³⁹And having waked up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, `Peace, be stilled;` and the wind did lull, and there was a great calm:

⁴⁰Eta erran ciecén Cergatic çarete horrela icior? nola eztuçue federic?

⁴⁰and he said to them, `Why are ye so fearful? how have ye not faith?`

⁴¹Eta ici citecen icidura handiz: eta erraiten çuten elkarren artean, Baina nor da haur, haiceac eta itsassoac, ere obeditzen baitute?

⁴¹and they feared a great fear, and said one to another, `Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?`
