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