Everyone hearing the Word of the kingdom, and not understanding, then the evil one comes and catches away that which was sown in his heart: this is that sown by the roadside.
And these are those beside the road where the Word is sown. And when they hear, Satan comes at once and takes away the Word having been sown in their hearts.
And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the Word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a time, and in time of trial draw back.
And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent, the one being called the devil, even Satan; the one leading astray the whole inhabited earth, was cast into the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.
