Matthew 13:21

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²¹ Yet it has no real root in him, but is temporary (inconstant, ^[a]lasts but a little while); and when affliction or trouble or persecution comes on account of the Word, at once he is caused to stumble [he is repelled and ^[b]begins to distrust and desert Him Whom he ought to trust and obey] and he falls away.
