And the seed sown into the thornbushes is this: the one hearing the Word, and the anxiety of this age, and the deceit of riches, choke the Word, and it becomes unfruitful.
and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts about other things entering in, they choke the Word, and it becomes unfruitful.
And the one falling in the thornbushes, these are the ones hearing, but under cares and riches and pleasures of life, moving along, they are choked, and do not bear to maturity.
