Matthew 13:20-22

Rotherham(i) 20 And, he on the rocky places sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word, and, straightway, with joy, receiveth it; 21 yet hath he no root in himself, but is, only for a season,––and, there arising, tribulation or persecution because of the word, straightway, he findeth cause of stumbling. 22 And, he among the thorns sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word,––and, the anxiety of the age and the deceit of riches, choke up the word, and, unfruitful, it becometh.
