马可福音 4:18-19
4:18还有那撒在荆棘里的，就是人听了道，
4:19后来有世上的思虑，钱财的迷惑，和别样的私欲进来，把道挤住了，就不能结实；
箴言12:25
人心忧虑，屈而不伸；
一句良言，使心欢乐。
Mark 4:18-19 (NIV)
18Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word;
19but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful.
Proverbs 12:25 (ESV)
Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.
