Matthew 13:41-49

41The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom all who cause sin and those guilty of lawlessness.

42They will throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s kingdom. Let anyone who has ears listen.

44“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure, buried in a field, that a man found and reburied. Then in his joy he goes and sells everything he has and buys that field.

45“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.

46When he found one priceless pearl, he went and sold everything he had and bought it.

47“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a large net thrown into the sea. It collected every kind of fish,

48and when it was full, they dragged it ashore, sat down, and gathered the good fish into containers, but threw out the worthless ones.

49So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out, separate the evil people from the righteous,
