62 31. Hē rehte him þā gȳt ōþer bigspel þus cweþende, Heofena rīce is geworden gelīc senepes corne þæt sēow sē man on hys æcre.

32. Þæt is ealra sǣda lǣst; sōþlīce þonne hit wyxþ, hit is ealra wyrta mǣst, and hit wyrþ trēow, swā þæt heofnan fuhlas cumaþ and eardiaþ on his bōgum.

34. Ealle þās þing sē Hǣlend spræc mid bigspellum tō þām weredum, and nān þing ne spræc hē būtan bigspellum:

35. þæt wǣre gefylled þæs wītegan cwyde, Ic ātȳne mīnne mūþ mid bigspellum; ic bodige dīgelnesse fram middaneardes gesetednesse.

37. Þā andswarude hē him, Sē þe sēow þæt gōde sǣd sē is mannes Sunu.
