1And it came to pass thereafter, that he was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming good news of the reign of God, and the twelve [are] with him,
2and certain women, who were healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
3and Joanna wife of Chuza, steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to him from their substance.
4And a great multitude having gathered, and those who from city and city were coming unto him, he spake by a simile:
5`The sower went forth to sow his seed, and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the heaven did devour it.
6`And other fell upon the rock, and having sprung up, it did wither, through not having moisture.
7`And other fell amidst the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with it, did choke it.
