Exegesis
Finally, the clause kai karpon ouk edōken {καὶ καρπὸν οὐκ ἔδωκεν | kaí kar-pòn oúk é-dō-ken} presents the outcome, with ouk ‘not’ negating edōken ‘it gave’ to emphasize the complete absence of fruit. The asyndetic sequence of “fell,” “grew up,” “choked,” and “did not give” creates a tight causal progression mirrored in English by preserving the coordinating particles and action verbs.
In context — Mark 4:7
And other seed fell among the thorns; the thorns grew up and choked it, and it produced no fruit .
