Luc 8:14

Ce qui est tombé parmi les épines, ce sont ceux qui, ayant entendu la parole, s'en vont, et la laissent étouffer par les soucis, les richesses et les plaisirs de la vie, et ils ne portent point de fruit qui vienne à maturité.

Parallel Translations

La Bible David Martin (1744)
Et ce qui est tombé entre des épines, ce sont ceux qui ayant ouï la parole, et s'en étant allés, sont étouffés par les soucis, par les richesses, et par les voluptés de cette vie, et ils ne rapportent point de fruit à maturité.
La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Et ce qui est tombé parmi les épines, ce sont ceux qui ont entendu la parole; mais qui, s'en allant, la laissent étouffer par les inquiétudes, par les richesses et par les voluptés de cette vie, de sorte qu'ils ne portent point de fruit qui vienne à maturité;
Darby's French Translation
Et ce qui est tombé dans les épines, ce sont ceux qui, ayant entendu la parole et s'en étant allés, sont étouffés par les soucis et par les richesses et par les voluptés de la vie, et ils ne portent pas de fruit à maturité.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And that which fell among thorns are they,.... The seed that fell among thorns, or were sown on thorny ground, represent such hearers:

which, when they have heard, go forth; from hearing the word to their worldly business; or go on in the pursuit of their worldly lusts and pleasures notwithstanding; for the word translated, "go forth", belongs to the next clause;

and are choked with cares and riches, and pleasures of this life; and with it to be read thus, "and going on in or under", that is, under the power and influence of, "the cares, and riches, and pleasures of life", they are choked; to which agrees the Arabic version, which renders it, "in which they walk", or "which they follow". The Vulgate Latin version is, "and from the cares, and riches, and pleasures of life, going, they are choked": but it is not going from them, but going on in them, which chokes them, or suffocates the word they have heard, whereby it becomes of no effect; unless it should be rendered, "by the cares", c. "they are choked, and bring no fruit to perfection" for what fruit such hearers do bring forth, in a way of profession, soon drops off, and perishes.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the parable of the sower explained in the notes at Matthew 13:1-23.
