²⁵^(A)For unto him that hath, shall it be given, and from him that hath not, shall be taken away even that he hath.

²⁶¶ ^[a]Also he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed in the ground.

²⁷And ^[b]should sleep, and rise up night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he ^[c]not knowing how.
