But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;(Matthew 13:20)

Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.(Matthew 13:21)

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.(Matthew 13:23)

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:(Matthew 13:24)

But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.(Matthew 13:25)
