* Another parable put he forth (5656 ) unto them , saying (5723 ), The kingdom of heaven is (5748 ) like to a grain of mustard seed , which a man took (5631 ), and sowed (5656 ) in his field : * Which indeed is (5748 ) the least of all seeds : but when it is grown (5686 ), it is (5748 ) the greatest among herbs , and becometh (5736 ) a tree , so that the birds of the air come (5629 ) and lodge (5721 ) in the branches thereof . * Another parable spake he (5656 ) unto them ; The kingdom of heaven is (5748 ) like unto leaven , which a woman took (5631 ), and hid (5656 ) in three measures of meal , till the whole was leavened (5681 ). * All these things spake (5656 ) Jesus unto the multitude in parables ; and without a parable spake he (5707 ) not unto them : * That it might be fulfilled (5686 ) which was spoken (5685 ) by the prophet , saying (5723 ), I will open (5692 ) my mouth in parables ; I will utter (5695 ) things which have been kept secret (5772 ) from the foundation of the world . * Then Jesus sent the multitude away (5631 ), and went (5627 ) into the house : and his disciples came (5656 ) unto him , saying (5723 ), Declare (5657 ) unto us the parable of the tares of the field . * He answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto them , He that soweth (5723 ) the good seed is (5748 ) the Son of man ; * The field is (5748 ) the world ; the good seed are (5748 ) the children of the kingdom ; but the tares are (5748 ) the children of the wicked one ;
