* And he was saying Thus , is the kingdom of God : As a man may cast seed upon the earth , * and be sleeping and rising , night and day , and the seed be sprouting , and lengthening itself , how , he , knoweth not : * of itself , the earth beareth fruit , first , a blade , afterwards , an ear , after that , full corn in the ear ; * but , as soon as the fruit yieldeth itself up , straightway , he sendeth forth the sickle , because standing by is the harvest .
