They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
KJV
Mark 4:17
And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.
