13:26
When the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.
13:27
The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
13:28
‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. So the servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
13:29
‘No,’ he said, ‘if you pull the weeds now, you might uproot the wheat with them.
13:30
Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”
