Matthew · Κατὰ Ματθαῖον

Matthew 13:19

παντος ακουοντος τον λογον της βασιλειας και μη συνιεντος ερχεται ο πονηρος και αρπαζει το εσπαρμενον εν τη καρδια αυτου ουτος εστιν ο παρα την οδον σπαρεις
pantos akoyontos ton logon tēs basileias kai mē synientos erchetai o ponēros kai arpazei to esparmenon en tē kardia aytoy oytos estin o para tēn odon spareis
King James Version (KJV)

When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth {it} not, then cometh the wicked {one}, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

Modern English

When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
