tcent Matthew:13:24-30
tcent@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;
tcent@Matthew:13:25 @ but while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.
tcent@Matthew:13:26 @ So when the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also.
tcent@Matthew:13:27 @ And the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then has it weeds?
tcent@Matthew:13:28 @ He said to them, An enemy has done this. The servants said to him, Then do you want us to go and gather them up?
tcent@Matthew:13:29 @ But he said, No, lest while you gather up the weeds you also root up the wheat with them.
tcent@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers. Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.«
