36
Then He left the Crowd
And
went into the house.
His
Disciples came to Him and said,
'Explain
to us the Parable of the Weeds in the Field.'
37
He answered,
THE
ONE WHO SOWED THE GOOD SEED
IS
THE SON OF MAN.
38
THE FIELD IS THE WORLD,
AND
THE GOOD SEED STANDS FOR THE SONS OF THE KINGDOM.
THE
WEEDS ARE THE SONS OF THE EVIL ONE,
39
AND THE ENEMY WHO SOWS THEM IS THE DEVIL.
THE
HARVEST IS THE END OF THE AGE,
AND
THE HARVESTERS ARE ANGELS.
40
AS THE WEEDS ARE PULLED UP
AND
BURNED IN THE FIRE,
SO
IT WILL BE AT THE END OF THE AGE.
41
THE SON OF MAN WILL SEND OUT HIS ANGELS,
AND
THEY WILL WEED OUT OF HIS KINGDOM
EVERYTHING
THAT CAUSES SIN
AND
ALL WHO DO EVIL.
42
THEY WILL THROW THEM INTO THE FIERY FURNACE,
WHERE
THERE WILL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH.
43
THEN THE RIGHTEOUS WILL SHINE
LIKE
THE SUN IN THE KINGDOM OF THEIR FATHER.
HE
WHO HAS EARS, LET HIM HEAR.
(Matthew
13:36-43)
