Matthew 13:21 in context
- 19When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
- 20What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;
- 21yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
- 22What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
- 23What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit, and produces, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
