Matthew 13:21 | |
NASB: yet he has no [firm] root in himself, but is [only] temporary, and when affliction or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away. (NASB ©1995) GWT: Since he doesn't have any root, he lasts only a little while. When suffering or persecution comes along because of the word, he immediately falls [from faith]. (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. ASV: yet hath he not root in himself, but endureth for a while; and when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway he stumbleth. BBE: But having no root in himself, he goes on for a time; and when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, he quickly becomes full of doubts. DBY: but has no root in himself, but is for a time only; and when tribulation or persecution happens on account of the word, he is immediately offended. WEY: It has struck no root, however, within him. He continues for a time, but when suffering comes, or persecution, because of the Message, he at once stumbles and falls. WBS: Yet he hath not root in himself, but endureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, forthwith he is offended. WEB: yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles. YLT: and he hath not root in himself, but is temporary, and persecution or tribulation having happened because of the word, immediately he is stumbled. | |
