Matthew 13:23 BBE

²¹  But having no root in himself, he goes on for a time; and when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, he quickly becomes full of doubts.

²²  And that which was dropped among the thorns, this is he who has the word; and the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, put a stop to the growth of the word and it gives no fruit.

²³  And the seed which was put in good earth, this is he who gives ear to the word, and gets the sense of it; who gives fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

²⁴  And he gave them another story, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a man who put good seed in his field:

²⁵  But while men were sleeping, one who had hate for him came and put evil seeds among the grain, and went away.
