Mark 4:16-17 And these in like manner are they that are sown on the rocky places, those, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy,

Noyes⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ And these in like manner are they that are sown on the rocky places, those, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy, ¹⁷ and have no root in themselves, but endure only for a time; then, when affliction or persecution ariseth on account of the word, they immediately fall away.
