They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.

ગુજરાતીમાર્ક ૪:૧૭
અને તેમના પોતાનામાં જડ હોતી નથી, એટલે થોડીવાર ટકે છે; પછી વચનને લીધે દુઃખ અથવા સતાવણી આવે છે ત્યારે તેઓ આત્મિક જીવનમાં ટકી શકતા નથી.
हिन्दीमरकुस ४:१७
परन्तु अपने भीतर जड़ न रखने के कारण वे थोड़े ही दिनों के लिये रहते हैं; इसके बाद जब वचन के कारण उन पर क्लेश या उपद्रव होता है, तो वे तुरन्त ठोकर खाते हैं।

In context

15The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.

16These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.

17They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.

18Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,

19and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
