word

The sower soweth the word.

But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.

And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
