27So the seruants of the housholder came, and said vnto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seede in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? 28He said vnto them, An enemy hath done this. The seruants said vnto him, Wilt thou then that we goe and gather them vp? 29But he said, Nay: lest while yee gather vp the tares, ye root vp also the wheat with them. 30Let both grow together vntil the haruest: and in the time of haruest, I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and binde them in bundels to burne them: but gather the wheat into my barne. 31¶ Another parable put he foorth vnto them, saying, The kingdome of heauen is like to a graine of mustard seed, which a man tooke, and sowed in his field.
