Moses speaks to the Israelites as if they were one man, so the words "you" and "your" here are singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
# in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your cattle, in the fruit of your ground
# in the fruit of your womb, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground
This is an idiom. See how you translated these words in [Deuteronomy 28:4](../28/04.md). Alternate translation: "with children, animals, and crops" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])

Here, "firstborn" always refers to the oldest male offspring. See how you translated a similar phrase in [Exodus 11:5](../11/05.md).

# They have no root in themselves

This is a comparison to the young plants that have very shallow roots. This metaphor means that the people were first excited when they received the word, but they were not strongly devoted to it. Alternate translation: "And they are like the young plants that have no roots" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word
The words "cares," "deceitfulness," and "desires" are spoken of as if they were beings who could move ("come") and keep plants from growing ("choke"). The word is spoken of as if it were a plant. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# the cares of the world
"the worries in this life" or "the concerns about this present life"
# the deceitfulness of riches
# the deceitfulness of wealth
"the desires for riches"
The word "deceitfulness" is an abstract noun that can be translated using the verb "deceive." The deception here is the false idea that people who have great wealth are happier than those who do not have it. The word "wealth" is an abstract noun that can be translated using the phrase "having many possessions." Alternate translation: "the false idea that having many possessions will make them happy"
# enter in and choke the word
# come in and choke the word
As Jesus continues to talk about people who are like the seeds that fell among the thorns, he explains what the desires and worries do to the word in their lives. Alternate translation: "enter in and choke God's message in their lives like thorns choke young plants" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

This refers to the grain that the plants produce. Alternate translation: "some produce thirty grains, some produce sixty grains, and some produce a hundred grains" or "some produce 30 times the grain that was sown, some produce 60 times the grain that was sown, and some produce 100 times the grain that was sown" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis]] or [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-numbers]])
