[24] Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: [25] But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. [26] But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. [27] So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? [28] He said unto them, An enemy hath done The servants unto him, Wilt thou then that we go them up? [29] But he said, Nay; while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. [30] Let both grow together the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into barn. [31] Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: [32] Which indeed the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. [33] Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. [34] All spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he unto them: [35] That it might be fulfilled which by the prophet, saying, I will open mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world. [36] Then the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, the parable of the tares of the field. [37] He answered and said He that soweth the good seed the Son of man; [38] The field the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares the children of the wicked [39] The enemy that sowed them the devil; the harvest the end of the world; and the reapers the angels. [40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so in the end world. [41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; [42] And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there wailing and gnashing of teeth. [43] Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear,
