    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.

    15That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.
