25but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel{darnel is a weed grass (probably bearded darnel or lolium temulentum) that looks very much like wheat until it is mature, when the difference becomes very apparent.} also among the wheat, and went away.
26But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel appeared also.
27The servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where did this darnel come from?'
28"He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and gather them up?'
29"But he said, 'No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel, you root up the wheat with them.
30Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First, gather up the darnel, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
31He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;
32which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches."
33He spoke another parable to them. "The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures{Literally, satas. 3 satas = about 0.5 bushel or 22 litres} of meal, until it was all leavened."
34Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn't speak to them,
36Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel of the field."
37He answered them, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel are the children of the evil one.
39The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
3He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, "Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
4As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
22What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
23What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most assuredly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."
26He said, "The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
27and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he doesn't know how.
18"Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
19When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
44"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
45"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
3"Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow,
4and it happened, as he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds{TR adds "of the air"} came and devoured it.
18He said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? To what shall I compare it?
19It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a large tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
20Again he said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?
14The farmer sows the word.
11Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
5"The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
47"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
48which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
7Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them:
8and others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
14"For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them.
1He began to speak to them in parables. "A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the winepress, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.
30He said, "How will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
31It's like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
1"For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
8Others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some brought forth thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much."
8Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times." As he said these things, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
9Then his disciples asked him, "What does this parable mean?"
16He spoke a parable to them, saying, "The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.
33"Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household, who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.
20These are those which were sown on the good ground: such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times."
15That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.
1Jesus answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,
2"The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,
