And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the earth, 27And should sleep, and rise, night and day, and the seed should spring, and grow up whilst he knoweth not. 28For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear. 29And when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
