KJV ORIGINAL
And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
But then life gets messy — you're stressed about everything, money starts looking like the answer to all your problems, and you want what everyone else has. All of that stuff crowds out God's message until it can't grow in your heart anymore.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When you're drowning in stress, chasing money, and wanting what others have, God's voice gets drowned out too.
