40:013:023 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that
           heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth
           fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty,
           some thirty.

40:013:024 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of
           heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his
           field: 

40:013:025 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the
           wheat, and went his way.

40:013:026 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit,
           then appeared the tares also.

40:013:027 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him,
           Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence
           then hath it tares?

40:013:028 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this.  The servants said
           unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

40:013:029 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root
           up also the wheat with them.

40:013:030 Let both grow together until 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 my barn.

40:013:031 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of
           heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took,
           and sowed in his field: 

40:013:032 Which indeed is the least of all seeds:  but when it is grown,
           it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that
           the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

40:013:033 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is
           like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three
           measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

40:013:034 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables;
           and without a parable spake he not unto them: 

40:013:035 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
           saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things
           which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

40:013:036 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: 
           and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the
           parable of the tares of the field.

40:013:037 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed
           is the Son of man;

40:013:038 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the
           kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

40:013:039 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end
           of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
