Luke 8:9-15

9AndG1161 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mightG1510 thisG3778 parableG3588G3850 beG1510?

10AndG1161 he saidG3004, Unto youG4771 it is givenG1325 to knowG1097 the mysteriesG3588G3466 of the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316: butG1161 to othersG3062 inG1722 parablesG3850; thatG2443 seeingG991 they mightG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 hearingG191 they mightG4920 notG3361 understandG4920.

11NowG1161 the parableG3588G3850 isG1510 thisG3778: The seedG3588G4703 isG1510 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316.

12ThoseG3588 byG3844 the way sideG3588G3598 are theyG1510 thatG3588 hearG191; thenG1534 comethG2064 the devilG1228, andG2532 taketh awayG142 the wordG3588G3056 out ofG575 theirG846 heartsG3588G2588, lestG3361 they should believeG4100 and be savedG4982.

13TheyG3588 onG1909 the rockG3588G4073 are they, whichG3739, whenG3752 they hearG191, receiveG1209 the wordG3588G3056 withG3326 joyG5479; andG2532 theseG3778 haveG2192 noG3756 rootG4491, whichG3739 forG4314 a whileG2540 believeG4100, andG2532 inG1722 timeG2540 of temptationG3986 fall awayG868.

14AndG1161 thatG3588 which fellG4098 amongG1519 thornsG3588G173 areG1510 theyG3778, whichG3588, when they have heardG191, go forthG4198, andG2532 are chokedG4846 withG5259 caresG3308 andG2532 richesG4149 andG2532 pleasuresG2237 ofG3588G979 this lifeG3588G979, andG2532 bringG5052 no fruitG3756 to perfectionG5052.

15ButG1161 thatG3588 onG1722 the goodG2570 groundG1093 areG1510 theyG3778, whichG3748 inG1722 an honestG18 andG2532 goodG2570 heartG2588, having heardG191 the wordG3588G3056, keepG2722 it, andG2532 bring forth fruitG2592 withG1722 patienceG5281.
