Matthew 13:20-22

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁰ “And the one who received seed in the stony ground, is he who hears the word, and immediately, with joy, receives it,

²¹ “but he has no root in himself and endures but a season. For as soon as trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly stumbles.

²² “And the one who receives the seed among thorns, is he who hears the word, but the care of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word. And it is made unfruitful.
