Mark 4

²⁵ For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

²⁶ Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

²⁷ Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

²⁸ All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

²⁹ And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
