John Gill Commentary Mark 4:19

"and the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful." — Mark 4:19 (ASV)

And the cares of this world The perplexing and distressing cares of it to get as much of it as they can, for themselves and families, fill their minds, and possess their souls even when and while they are hearing the word:

and the deceitfulness of riches; or riches which are deceitful, especially when trusted in, and being obtained, they do not give the satisfaction they promise:

and the lusts of other things entering in: carnal desires after other objects, which are pleasing to the sensual mind, entering into their hearts, and gaining, the ascendant there:

choke the word, and it, becomes unfruitful; these being more attended to than the word is, that is quite lost, and becomes useless, and unprofitable.
