Mark 4:17 in Context — Mark 4
15 Les uns sont le long du chemin, où la parole est semée; quand ils l’ont entendue, aussitôt Satan vient et enlève la parole qui a été semée en eux.
16 Les autres, pareillement, reçoivent la semence dans les endroits pierreux; quand ils entendent la parole, ils la reçoivent d’abord avec joie;
17 mais ils n’ont pas de racine en eux-mêmes, ils manquent de persistance, et, dès que survient une tribulation ou une persécution à cause de la parole, ils y trouvent une occasion de chute.
18 D’autres reçoivent la semence parmi les épines; ce sont ceux qui entendent la parole,
19 mais en qui les soucis du siècle, la séduction des richesses et l’invasion des autres convoitises, étouffent la parole, et la rendent infructueuse.
