Luke 8:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 And they that are beside the way, are they that hear: afterward cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe, and be saved.
13 But they that are on the stones, are they which when they have heard, receive the word with joy: but they have no roots: which for a while believe, but in the time of temptation go away.
14 And that which fell among thorns, are they which have heard, and after [a]their departure are choked with cares and with riches, and voluptuous living, and [b]bring forth no fruit.
