But he that received the seed into rocky hard stony places, the same is he that heareth the message teaching word , and anon with joy receiveth it; Yet hath he not foundation depth root in himself, but remains lasts dureth for a while: for when hardship tribulation trials or suffering opposition persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is discouraged stumbled offended . He also that received seed among the weeds brambles thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this life world age , and the deceitfulness of riches wealth possessions , strangle suffocate choke the word, and he becometh barren unfruitful unproductive . But he that received seed into the fertile rich good ground is he that heareth the word, and comprehends grasps understandeth it; which also yields beareth produces fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundred times century-fold hundredfold , some sixtyfold sixty sixty times , some thirtyfold thirty times thirty .
