33
He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it had been all leavened.
34
All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables, and without a parable he did not speak to them,
35
so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from [the] world's foundation.
36
Then, having dismissed the crowds, he went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Expound to us the parable of the darnel of the field.
37
But he answering said, He that sows the good seed is the Son of man,
38
and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, but the darnel are the sons of the evil [one];
39
and the enemy who has sowed it is the devil; and the harvest is [the] completion of [the] age, and the harvestmen are angels.
40
As then the darnel is gathered and is burned in the fire, thus it shall be in the completion of the age.
41
The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all offences, and those that practise lawlessness;
42
and they shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
43
Then the righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that has ears, let him hear.
