Matthew 13:2-6

And large crowds gathered to Him, so He got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd was standing on the beach.

And He told them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, the sower went out to sow;

and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up.

Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and they sprang up immediately, because they had no depth of soil.

But after the sun rose, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
