36 Then Jesus, leaving the multitude, retired to the house, where his disciples accosted him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the darnel in the field.
37 Jesus answering, said to them, He who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the sons of the kingdom; and the darnel are the sons of the evil one;
39 the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the conclusion of this state; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As, therefore, the darnel is gathered and burnt, so shall it be at the conclusion of this state.
41 The Son of Man will send his angels who shall gather out of his kingdom all seducers and iniquitous persons,
42 and throw them into the burning furnace: weeping and gnashing of teeth shall be there.
43 Then shall the righteous shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears to hear let him hear.
