"Listen! A farmer went out to plant some seeds. As he scattered them across his field, some seeds fell on a footpath, and the birds came and ate them. Other seeds fell on shallow soil with underlying rock. The seeds sprouted quickly because the soil was shallow. But the plants seeds soon wilted under the hot sun, and sine they didn't have deep roots, they died. Other seeds fell among thorns that grew up and choked out tender plants. Still other sends fell on fertile soil, and they produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even hundred times as much as had been planted! Anyone with ears should listen and understand."
Matthew 13: 4- 9 ( New Living Translation)
In versed 18 - 23 of Matthew 13 chapter, Jesus explains this parable.
