Mark 4:14-20

14The sower sows the word.

15These are the ones on the path where the word is sown: Whenever they hear, immediately Satan comes and snatches the word that was sown in them.

16These are the ones sown on rocky ground: As soon as they hear the word, they receive it with joy.

17But they have no root in themselves and do not endure. Then, when trouble or persecution comes because of the word, immediately they fall away.

18Others are the ones sown among thorns: They are those who hear the word,

19but worldly cares, the seductiveness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it produces nothing.

20But these are the ones sown on good soil: They hear the word and receive it and bear fruit, one thirty times as much, one sixty, and one a hundred.”
