Matthew 13:45-48

Living Bible

⁴⁵ “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a pearl merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. ⁴⁶ He discovered a real bargain—a pearl of great value—and sold everything he owned to purchase it!

^47-48 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by a fisherman—he casts a net into the water and gathers in fish of every kind, valuable and worthless. When the net is full, he drags it up onto the beach and sits down and sorts out the edible ones into crates and throws the others away.
