Mark 4:26-28

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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

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

²⁸ For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear.
