Goodspeed(i)
14 What the sower sows is the message.
15 The ones by the path are those into whose hearts the message falls, and as soon as they hear it Satan comes and carries off the message that has been sown in their hearts.
16 It is so too with the ones sown on the rocky ground; they gladly accept the message as soon as they hear it,
17 but it takes no real root in them and they last only a little while; then when trouble or persecution comes because of the message they give it up at once.
18 It is different with those sown among the thorns. They are people who listen to the message,
19 but the worries of the time and the pleasure of being rich and passions for other things creep in and choke the message out and it yields nothing.
20 And the ones sown in good ground are the people who listen to the message and welcome it and yield thirty, sixty, even a hundredfold.
