Matthew 13:22 in Context — Matthew 13

20 Celui qui a reçu la semence dans les endroits pierreux, c’est celui qui entend la parole et la reçoit aussitôt avec joie;

21 mais il n’a pas de racines en lui-même, il manque de persistance, et, dès que survient une tribulation ou une persécution à cause de la parole, il y trouve une occasion de chute.

22 Celui qui a reçu la semence parmi les épines, c’est celui qui entend la parole, mais en qui les soucis du siècle et la séduction des richesses étouffent cette parole, et la rendent infructueuse.

23 Celui qui a reçu la semence dans la bonne terre, c’est celui qui entend la parole et la comprend; il porte du fruit, et un grain en donne cent, un autre soixante, un autre trente.

24 Il leur proposa une autre parabole, et il dit: Le royaume des cieux est semblable à un homme qui a semé une bonne semence dans son champ.
