WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 The same daye wet Iesus out of the house and sat by the see syde
1 Y AQUEL día, saliendo Jesús de casa, se sentó junto á la mar.
1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.
2 and moch people resorted vnto him so gretly that he wet and sat in a shippe and all the people stode on the shoore.
2 Y se allegaron á él muchas gentes; y entrándose él en el barco, se sentó, y toda la gente estaba á la ribera.
2 Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
3 And he spake many thynges to the in similitudes sayinge: Beholde the sower wet forth to sowe.
3 Y les habló muchas cosas por parábolas, diciendo: He aquí el que sembraba salió á sembrar.
3 He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
4 And as he sowed some fell by the wayessyde and the fowlles came and devoured it vp.
4 Y sembrando, parte [de la simiente] cayó junto al camino; y vinieron las aves, y la comieron.
4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 Some fell apon stony groude where it had not moche erth and a none it sproge vp because it had no depth of erth:
5 Y parte cayó en pedregales, donde no tenía mucha tierra; y nació luego, porque no tenía profundidad de tierra:
5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
6 and when the sunne was vp it cauht heet and for lake of rotynge wyddred awaye.
6 Mas en saliendo el sol, se quemó; y secóse, porque no tenía raíz.
6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
7 Some fell amonge thornes and the thornes sproge vp and chooked it.
7 Y parte cayó en espinas; y las espinas crecieron, y la ahogaron.
7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
8 Parte fell in good ground and brought forth good frute: some an hundred fold some sixtie fold some thyrty folde.
8 Y parte cayó en buena tierra, y dió fruto, cuál á ciento, cuál á sesenta, y cuál á treinta.
8 Others fell on good soil and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.
9 Quien tiene oídos para oir, oiga.
9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10 And the disciples came and sayde to him: Why speakest thou to the in parables?
10 Entonces, llegándose los discípulos, le dijeron: ¿Por qué les hablas por parábolas?
10 The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
11 He answered and sayde vnto them: it is geve vnto you to knowe the secretes of the kyngdome of heven but to the it is not geve
11 Y él respondiendo, les dijo: Por que á vosotros es concedido saber los misterios del reino de los cielos; mas á ellos no es concedido.
11 He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.
12 For whosoever hath to him shall be geven: and he shall have aboundance. But whosoever hath not: from hym shalbe takyn awaye even that he hath.
12 Porque á cualquiera que tiene, se le dará, y tendrá más; pero al que no tiene, aun lo que tiene le será quitado.
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
13 Therfore speake I to them in similitudes: for though they se they se not: and hearinge they heare not: nether vnderstonde.
13 Por eso les hablo por parábolas; porque viendo no ven, y oyendo no oyen, ni entienden.
13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the Prophesie of Esayas which prophesie sayth: with the eares ye shall heare and shall not vnderstonde and with the eyes ye shall se and shall not perceave.
14 De manera que se cumple en ellos la profecía de Isaías, que dice: De oído oiréis, y no entenderéis; y viendo veréis, y no miraréis.
14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive;
15 For this peoples hertes are wexed grosse and their eares were dull of herynge and their eyes have they closed lest they shulde se with their eyes and heare with their eares and shuld vnderstonde with their hertes and shuld tourne that I myght heale them.
15 Porque el corazón de este pueblo está engrosado, y de los oídos oyen pesadamente, y de sus ojos guiñan: para que no vean de los ojos, y oigan de los oídos, y del corazón entiendan, y se conviertan, y yo los sane.
15 for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’
16 But blessed are youre eyes for they se: and youre eares for they heare.
16 Mas bienaventurados vuestros ojos, porque ven; y vuestros oídos, porque oyen.
16 “But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
17 Verely I say vnto you that many Prophetes and perfaicte me have desired to se tho thinges which ye se and have not sene the: and to heare tho thinges which ye heare and have not herde the.
17 Porque de cierto os digo, que muchos profetas y justos desearon ver lo que veis, y no lo vieron: y oir lo que oís, y no lo oyeron.
17 For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.
18 Heare ye therfore the similitude of the sower.
18 Oid, pues, vosotros la parábola del que siembra:
18 “Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
19 Whosoever heareth the worde of the kingdome and vnderstondeth it not ther cometh the evyll man and catcheth awaye that which was sowne in his hert. And this is he which was sowne by the wayesyde.
19 Oyendo cualquiera la palabra del reino, y no entendiéndola, viene el malo, y arrebata lo que fué sembrado en su corazón: éste es el que fué sembrado junto al camino.
19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
20 But he that was sowne in the stony grounde is he which heareth the worde of God and anone with ioye receaveth it
20 Y el que fué sembrado en pedregales, éste es el que oye la palabra, y luego la recibe con gozo.
20 What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word and immediately with joy receives it;
21 yet hath he no rottes in him selfe and therfore dureth but a season: for assone as tribulacion or persecucion aryseth because of the worde by and by he falleth.
21 Mas no tiene raíz en sí, antes es temporal: que venida la aflicción ó la persecución por la palabra, luego se ofende.
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
22 He that was sowne amonge thornes is he that heareth the worde of God: but the care of this worlde and the dissaytfulnes of ryches choke the worde and so is he made vnfrutfull.
22 Y el que fué sembrado en espinas, éste es el que oye la palabra; pero el afán de este siglo y el engaño de las riquezas, ahogan la palabra, y hácese infructuosa.
22 What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
23 He which is sowne in the good grounde is he that heareth the worde and vnderstodeth it which also bereth frute and bringeth forth some an hundred folde some sixtie folde and some thirty folde.
23 Mas el que fué sembrado en buena tierra, éste es el que oye y entiende la palabra, y el que lleva fruto: y lleva uno á ciento, y otro á sesenta, y otro á treinta.
23 What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit and produces, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
24 Another similitude put he forth vnto the sayinge: The kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto a man which sowed good seed in his felde.
24 Otra parábola les propuso, diciendo: El reino de los cielos es semejante al hombre que siembra buena simiente en su campo:
24 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
25 But whyll men slepte ther came his foo and sowed tares amonge the wheate and wet his waye.
25 Mas durmiendo los hombres, vino su enemigo, y sembró cizaña entre el trigo, y se fué.
25 but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds also among the wheat, and went away.
26 When the blade was spronge vp and had brought forth frute the appered the tares also.
26 Y como la hierba salió é hizo fruto, entonces apareció también la cizaña.
26 But when the blade sprang up and produced grain, then the darnel weeds appeared also.
27 The servaunts came to the housholder and sayde vnto him: Syr sowedest not thou good seed in thy closse from whence the hath it tares?
27 Y llegándose los siervos del padre de la familia, le dijeron: Señor, ¿no sembraste buena simiente en tu campo? ¿de dónde, pues, tiene cizaña?
27 The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where did these darnel weeds come from?’
28 He sayde to the the envious man hath done this. Then the servauntes sayde vnto him: wilt thou then that we go and gader them?
28 Y él les dijo: Un hombre enemigo ha hecho esto. Y los siervos le dijeron: ¿Quieres, pues, que vayamos y la cojamos?
28 “He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’
29 But he sayde nay lest whill ye go aboute to wede out the tares ye plucke vppe also with them the wheate by the rottes:
29 Y él dijo: No; porque cogiendo la cizaña, no arranquéis también con ella el trigo.
29 “But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.
30 let bothe growe to gether tyll harvest come and in tyme of harvest I wyll saye to the repers gather ye fyrst the tares and bind the in sheves to be bret: but gather the wheete into my barne.
30 Dejad crecer juntamente lo uno y lo otro hasta la siega; y al tiempo de la siega yo diré á los segadores: Coged primero la cizaña, y atadla en manojos para quemarla; mas recoged el trigo en mi alfolí.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
31 Another parable he put forthe vnto the sayinge. The kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto a grayne of mustard seed which a man taketh and soweth in his felde
31 Otra parábola les propuso, diciendo: El reino de los cielos es semejante al grano de mostaza, que tomándolo alguno lo sembró en su campo:
31 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took, and sowed in his field,
32 which is the leest of all seedes. But when it is groune it is the greatest amonge yerbes and it is a tree: so that the bryddes of the ayer come and bylde in the brauches of it.
32 El cual á la verdad es la más pequeña de todas las simientes; mas cuando ha crecido, es la mayor de las hortalizas, y se hace árbol, que vienen las aves del cielo y hacen nidos en sus ramas.
32 which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”
33 Another similitude sayde he to them. The kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto leve which a woman taketh and hydeth in .iii. peckes of meele tyll all be levended.
33 Otra parábola les dijo: El reino de los cielos es semejante á la levadura que tomó una mujer, y escondió en tres medidas de harina, hasta que todo quedó leudo.
33 He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened.”
34 All these thynge spake Iesus vnto the people by similitudes and with oute similitudes spake he nothinge to them
34 Todo esto habló Jesús por parábolas á las gentes, y sin parábolas no les hablaba:
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,
35 to fulfyll that which was spoke by the Prophet sayinge: I wyll open my mouth in similitudes and wyll speake forth thinges which have bene kepte secrete from the begynninge of the worlde.
35 Para que se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta, que dijo: Abriré en parábolas mi boca; rebosaré cosas escondidas desde la fundación del mundo.
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 Then sent Iesus the people awaye and came to housse. And his disciples came vnto him sayinge: declare vnto vs the similitude of the tares of the felde.
36 Entonces, despedidas las gentes, Jesús se vino á casa; y llegándose á él sus discípulos, le dijeron: Decláranos la parábola de la cizaña del campo.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
37 Then answered he and sayde to them. He that soweth the good seed is the sonne of man.
37 Y respondiendo él, les dijo: El que siembra la buena simiente es el Hijo del hombre;
37 He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38 And the felde is the worlde. And the chyldre of the kingdome they are the good seed. And the tares are the chyldren of the wicked.
38 Y el campo es el mundo; y la buena simiente son los hijos del reino, y la cizaña son los hijos del malo;
38 the field is the world, the good seeds are the children of the Kingdom, and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
39 And the enemye that soweth the is the devell. The harvest is the end of the worlde. And the repers be the angels.
39 Y el enemigo que la sembró, es el diablo; y la siega es el fin del mundo, y los segadores son los ángeles.
39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
40 For even as the tares are gaddred and bret in the fyre: so shall it be in the ende of this worlde.
40 De manera que como es cogida la cizaña, y quemada al fuego, así será en el fin de este siglo.
40 As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.
41 The sonne of man shall send forth his angels and they shall gather out of his kyngdome all thinges that offende and them which do iniquite
41 Enviará el Hijo del hombre sus ángeles, y cogerán de su reino todos los escándalos, y los que hacen iniquidad,
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling and those who do iniquity,
42 and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre. There shalbe waylynge and gnasshing of teth.
42 Y los echarán en el horno de fuego: allí será el lloro y el crujir de dientes.
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the iuste men shyne as bryght as the sunne in the kyngdome of their father. Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.
43 Entonces los justos resplandecerán como el sol en el reino de su Padre: el que tiene oídos para oir, oiga.
43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Agayne the kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto treasure hidde in the felde the which a man fyndeth and hideth: and for ioy therof goeth and selleth all that he hath and byeth that felde.
44 Además, el reino de los cielos es semejante al tesoro escondido en el campo; el cual hallado, el hombre [lo] encubre, y de gozo de ello va, y vende todo lo que tiene, y compra aquel campo.
44 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
45 Agayne the kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto a marchaunt that seketh good pearles
45 También el reino de los cielos es semejante al hombre tratante, que busca buenas perlas;
45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
46 which when he had founde one precious pearle wet and solde all that he had and bought it.
46 Que hallando una preciosa perla, fué y vendió todo lo que tenía, y la compró.
46 who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
47 Agayne the kyngdome of heven is lyke vnto a neet cast into the see that gadereth of all kyndes of fysshes:
47 Asimismo el reino de los cielos es semejante á la red, que echada en la mar, coge de todas suertes [de peces]:
47 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some fish of every kind,
48 which when it is full men drawe to londe and sitte and gadre the good into vessels and cast the bad awaye.
48 La cual estando llena, la sacaron á la orilla; y sentados, cogieron lo bueno en vasos, y lo malo echaron fuera.
48 which, when it was filled, fishermen drew up on the beach. They sat down and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
49 So shall it be at the ende of the worlde. The angels shall come oute and sever the bad from the good
49 Así será al fin del siglo: saldrán los ángeles, y apartarán á los malos de entre los justos,
49 So it will be in the end of the world. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous,
50 and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre: there shalbe waylinge and gnasshynge of teth.
50 Y los echarán en el horno del fuego: allí será el lloro y el crujir de dientes.
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
51 Iesus sayde vnto them: vnderstonde ye all these thynges? They sayde ye Lorde.
51 Díceles Jesús: ¿Habéis entendido todas estas cosas? Ellos responden: Sí, Señor.
51 Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”
52 Then sayde he vnto them: Therfore every scribe which is taught vnto the kyngdome of heven is lyke an housholder which bryngeth forth out of hys treasure thynges bothe new and olde.
52 Y él les dijo: Por eso todo escriba docto en el reino de los cielos, es semejante á un padre de familia, que saca de su tesoro cosas nuevas y cosas viejas.
52 He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”
53 And it came to passe when Iesus had finisshed these similitudes that he departed thece
53 Y aconteció que acabando Jesús estas parábolas, pasó de allí.
53 When Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
54 and came in to his awne countre and taught them in their synagoges in so moche that they were astonyed and sayde: whence cometh all this wysdome and power vnto him?
54 Y venido á su tierra, les enseñaba en la sinagoga de ellos, de tal manera que ellos estaban atónitos, y decían: ¿De dónde tiene éste esta sabiduría, y estas maravillas?
54 Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
55 Is not this the carpeters sonne? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren be called Iames and Ioses and Simon and Iudas?
55 ¿No es éste el hijo del carpintero? ¿no se llama su madre María, y sus hermanos Jacobo y José, y Simón, y Judas?
55 Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother called Mary, and his brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
56 And are not his susters all here with vs? Whence hath he all these thynge.
56 ¿Y no están todas sus hermanas con nosotros? ¿De dónde, pues, tiene éste todas estas cosas?
56 Aren’t all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”
57 And they were offended by him. The Iesus sayd to the a Prophet is not with out honoure save in hys awne countre and amonge his awne kynne.
57 Y se escandalizaban en él. Mas Jesús les dijo: No hay profeta sin honra sino en su tierra y en su casa.
57 They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.”
58 And he dyd not many miracles there for there vnbelefes sake.
58 Y no hizo allí muchas maravillas, á causa de la incredulidad de ellos.
58 He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

… no such thing as good and evil, but certain things were deemed righteous, and certain others unrighteous, in human opinion only, He never would have expressed Himself thus in His teaching: "The righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father;" but He shall send the unrighteous, and those who do not the works of righteousness, …
For Thou hast said unto man, "Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;" and desire not to seem wise, because, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools." But I had now found the goodly pearl, which, selling all that I had, I ought to have bought; and I hesitated.
