Mark 4:14-16

New Century Version

¹⁴ The farmer is like a person who plants God’s message in people. ¹⁵ Sometimes the teaching falls on the road. This is like the people who hear the teaching of God, but Satan quickly comes and takes away the teaching that was planted in them. ¹⁶ Others are like the seed planted on rocky ground. They hear the teaching and quickly accept it with joy.
