And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them; But other fell into good ground, and brough forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while; for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this [[world]], and the [[deceit]]fulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

The '''Parable of the Sower''' (sometimes called the Parable of the Soils) is a parable of Jesus found in three of the four Gospels: {{bibleverse||Matthew|13:1-23|9}}, {{bibleverse||Mark|4:1-20|9}}, and {{bibleverse||Luke|8:1-15|9}}. John's account of the Gospel does not include this parable.

It should be noted that the sower did no soil preparation ahead of time (as a farmer sowing real seed would do). A possible interpretation is that God Himself prepares people's hearts ahead of time (or tries to, but man can accept or reject) before the Word is proclaimed.
