16 Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

20 Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”
21 Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?
22 For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.
