OET (OET-RV) The seeds among the thistles are those who heard the message but get choked under worries and wealth and the good life, and so they never reach maturity.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
