39
And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world. And the reapers are the angels.
40
Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world.
41
The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity.
42
And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43
Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
44
The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45
Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.
46
Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.
47
Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a net cast into the sea, and gathering together of all kinds of fishes.
48
Which, when it was filled, they drew out, and sitting by the shore, they chose out the good into vessels, but the bad they cast forth.
49
So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just.
