The kingdom of heaven is like a secret store of wealth in a field, which a man came across and put back again; and in his joy he goes and gives all he has, to get that field.
45
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a trader searching for beautiful jewels.
46
And having come across one jewel of great price, he went and gave all he had in exchange for it.
47
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net, which was put into the sea and took in every sort of fish:
48
When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.
49
So will it be in the end of the world: the angels will come and take out the bad from the good,
50
And will put them into the fire: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.
51
Are all these things now clear to you? They say to him, Yes.
52
And he said to them, For this reason every scribe who has become a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house, who gives out from his store things new and old.
