Matthew 13:19-23

Matthew 13:19-23

[19] When any  one heareth  the word  of the kingdom,  and  understandeth  it not,  then cometh  the wicked  one, and  catcheth away  that which  was sown  in  his  heart.  This  he which received seed  by  the way side.  [20] But  he that received the seed  into  stony places,  the same  he that heareth  the word,  and  with  joy  receiveth  it;  [21] Yet  hath he  not  root  in  himself,  but  for a while:  for  when tribulation  or  persecution  ariseth  because  of the word,  he is offended.  [22] He also  that received seed  among  the thorns  he that  heareth  the word;  and  the care  world,  and  the deceitfulness  of riches,  choke  the word,  and  he becometh  unfruitful.  [23] But  he that received seed  into  the good  ground  he  that heareth  the word,  and  understandeth  it; which  also  beareth fruit,  and  bringeth forth,  some  an hundredfold,  some  sixty,  some  thirty.
