When<n id="1" /> the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.

But he said, &#8216;No, since in gathering the weeds you may uproot the wheat with them.

As<n id="1" /> the weeds are collected and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of the age.

But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds<n id="1" /> among the wheat and went away.

So the slaves<n id="1" /> of the owner came and said to him, &#8216;Sir, didn&#8217;t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?&#8217;

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him saying, &#8220;Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.&#8221;

The field is the world and the good seed are the people<n id="1" /> of the kingdom. The weeds are the people<n id="2" /> of the evil one,

Let both grow together until the harvest. At<n id="1" /> harvest time I will tell the reapers, &#8220;First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned, but then<n id="2" /> gather<n id="3" /> the wheat into my barn.&#8221;&#8217;&#8221;p>
