Matthew Chapter 13 Verse 46‹Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.›

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.

He answered and said unto them, ‹He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;›

‹The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked› [one];

‹The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.›

‹As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.›

‹The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;›

‹And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.›

‹Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.›

‹Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.›

‹Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:›

‹Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:›

‹Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.›

‹So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,›

‹And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.›

Jesus saith unto them, ‹Have ye understood all these things?› They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

Then said he unto them, ‹Therefore every scribe› [which is] ‹instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man› [that is] ‹an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure› [things] ‹new and old.›

And it came to pass, [that] when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this [man] this wisdom, and [these] mighty works?

Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this [man] all these things?
