Par 

30 And he sayde: Wherevnto shall we lyken the kyngdome of God? Or with what comparyson shall we compare it?

31 It is like a grayne of mustarde seede, whiche when it is sowen in the earth, is lesse then all seedes that be in the earth.

32 When it is sowen, it groweth vp, and is greater then all hearbes, and beareth great braunches, so that the fowles of the ayre may make their nestes vnder the shadowe of it.

33 And with many such parables preached he the worde vnto them, as they were able to heare it.

34 But without parable spake he nothing vnto them. But when they were alone, he expounded all thynges to his disciples.

35 And the same day, when euen was come, he saide vnto them: Let vs passe ouer vnto the other syde.

36 And they left the people, and toke him, euen as he was in the shippe. And there were also with him, other litle shippes.

37 And there arose a great storme of wynde, and the waues dasshed into the shippe, so that it was nowe full.

38 And he was in the sterne a slepe on a pelowe. And they awaked hym, and sayde vnto hym: Maister, carest thou not that we peryshe?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wynde, and saide vnto the sea, peace and be styll. And the wynde ceassed, & there folowed a great calme.

40 And he sayde vnto them: why are ye so fearefull? Howe is it, that ye haue no fayth?

41 And they feared exceadyngly, and sayde one to another: Who is this? For both wynde and sea obey hym.
