The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares
24 "Another parable He put forth to them,
saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his
field; 25 but while men slept, his enemy came and
sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. 26
But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also
appeared. 27 So the servants of the owner came and
said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does
it have tares?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has
done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather
them up?’ 29 But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather
up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let
both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will
say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in
bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.”’
