Matthew 13:24-30

24He presented to them another parable, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.

25But while the men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.

26Now when the stalk sprouted and produced grain, then the weeds also appeared.

27So the slaves of the landowner came and said to him, ‘Master, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?’

28But he replied, ‘An enemy did this.’ Now the slaves say to him, ‘Do you want us, then, to go out and gather them up?’

29But he says, ‘No, for while you are gathering up the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them.

30Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time, I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the weeds and tie them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn.’”
