자라는 씨와 작은 씨
마가복음 4:26-32
마가복음 4:26 [The Parable of the Growing Seed] He also said, “The kingdom of God is like someone who spreads seed on the ground.
마가복음 4:27 He goes to sleep and gets up, night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how.
마가복음 4:28 By itself the soil produces a crop, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain in the head.
마가복음 4:29 And when the grain is ripe, he sends in the sickle because the harvest has come.”
마가복음 4:30 [The Parable of the Mustard Seed] He also asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable can we use to present it?
마가복음 4:31 It is like a mustard seed that when sown in the ground, even though it is the smallest of all the seeds in the ground –
마가복음 4:32 when it is sown, it grows up, becomes the greatest of all garden plants, and grows large branches so that the wild birds can nest in its shade.”
