And these are they which are sown among thorns, such as hear the Word,
And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they that have heard the word,
And others are the ones on whom seed was sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
And the ones sown among the thorns are others who hear the Word;
And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
Others are like seed sown among thorns; these are the ones who hear the word,
Others are like seed sown among thorns; these are the ones who hear the word,
Others are like the seed scattered among the thorny plants. These are the ones who have heard the word;
Others are those sown among thorns — they hear the message;
The seeds that fell among the thornbushes are also people who hear the message.
And others are they who are sown among the thorns: these are they who have heard the word,
And other people are the ones being sown the seed into the thorns. These are the ones having heard the word—
And others there are who are sown among thorns: these are they that hear the word,
“Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds. They hear the teaching,
Some seeds fell among thorn bushes. This is like some other people who hear God's message.
Still others are sown among the thorns. These are the ones who hear the word,
And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word,
And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word,
Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds. They hear the ·teaching [word; message],
Also they that receive the seed among the thorns, are such as hear the word:
Other people are like seeds planted among thornbushes. They hear the word,
Other people are like the seeds sown among the thorn bushes. These are the ones who hear the message,
Others are sown among thorns; these are the ones who hear the word,
Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds. They hear the teaching.
Still others are like the seeds sown among the thorn bushes. These are the people who hear the word,
Then he continued, “Do you really not understand this parable? Then how are you going to understand all the other parables? The man who sows, sows the message. As for those who are by the roadside where the message is sown, as soon as they hear it Satan comes at once and takes away what has been sown in their minds. Similarly, the seed sown among the rocks represents those who hear the message without hesitation and accept it joyfully. But they have no real roots and do not last—when trouble or persecution arises because of the message, they give up their faith at once. Then there are the seeds which were sown among thorn-bushes. These are the people who hear the message, but the worries of this world and the false glamour of riches and all sorts of other ambitions creep in and choke the life out of what they have heard, and it produces no crop in their lives. As for the seed sown on good soil, this means the men who hear the message and accept it and do produce a crop—thirty, sixty, even a hundred times as much as they received.”
And these are those who are sown among thorns, such as hear the word,
And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
And others are those being sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
And others are the ones sown among the thorn plants—these are the ones who hear the word,
“The thorny ground represents the hearts of people who listen to the Good News and receive it,
“The seed cast in the weeds represents the ones who hear the kingdom news but are overwhelmed with worries about all the things they have to do and all the things they want to get. The stress strangles what they heard, and nothing comes of it.
And others are seed sown among thorns, the ones who hear the word.
· Others are the ones sown among the thorns: these are the ones who hear the word,
Other people are like seeds planted among thornbushes. They hear the word,
Those sown among thorns are another sort. They are the people who hear the word,
And others are the ones sown with seed among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
And others are the ones on whom seed was sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
“Those sown among thorns are the ones who hear the word,
Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds. They hear the teaching,
Others are the ones sown among thorns: They are those who hear the word,
And what is seed scattered among thorns like? The people hear the message.
Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word;
Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word;
Now these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word,
The seed that was planted among thorns is like some people who listen to the Word.
The seed that fell among the thorns represents others who hear God’s word,
And those who receive the seed among the thorns are such as hear the word,

“Also those who receive the seed among the thorns, are those who hear the Word,
And others are the ones sown among thorns; they are those who hear the word,
And others are the ones sown among thorns; they are those who hear the word,
“And others are the ones sown among the thorns. They have heard the word;
Still others are the seed tossed among weeds and brambles. The word has reached them,
Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
The seed that fell among the weeds is like people who hear the message.
And there be others that be sown in thorns; these it be that hear the word,
`And these are they who toward the thorns are sown: these are they who are hearing the word,
