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