Matthew 13:4-7

4and as he sowed, some [grains] fell along the way, and the birds came and devoured them;

5and others fell upon the rocky places where they had not much earth, and immediately they sprang up out of [the ground] because of not having [any] depth of earth,

6but when the sun rose they were burned up, and because of not having [any] root were dried up;

7and others fell upon the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them;
