Matthew 13:26-30

Context
13:26 When 1  the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared. 13:27 So the slaves 2  of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?’ 13:28 He said, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So 3  the slaves replied, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them?’ 13:29 But he said, ‘No, since in gathering the weeds you may uproot the wheat with them. 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At 4  harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned, but then 5  gather 6  the wheat into my barn.”’”
