Luke 8
4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:
5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.
7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.
