Luke 8:9 — Luke 8:14

9 And His disciples questioned Him as to what this parable might be.

10 And He said, To you it has been given to know the ^amysteries of the ¹kingdom of God, but to the rest they are in parables, in order that ^bseeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.

11 Now the ^aparable is this: The seed is the ^bword of God.

12 And those beside the way are those who heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they would not believe and be ^asaved.

13 And those on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with ^ajoy; yet these have no root, who believe only for a while, and in time of ^btrial they draw back.

14 And that which fell into the thorns, these are those who heard and, going away, are utterly choked by ^aanxieties and ^briches and ^cpleasures of this ¹life, and do not bring any fruit to maturity.
