    18And these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word,

    11Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

    13They on the rock are they, who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

    14And that which fell among thorns are they, who, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity.
