Mark 4:17-19

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ “Yet they have no root in themselves and endure but a time. For when trouble and persecution arise for the word, they fall away immediately.

¹⁸ “Also those who receive the seed among the thorns, are those who hear the word,

¹⁹ “but the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches and the lusts of other things enter in and choke the word. And it is unfruitful.
