马太福音 13:31-43
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
芥菜种和面酵的比喻
31 耶稣又给他们讲了一个比喻:“天国就像一粒芥菜种,人把它种在田里。 32 它虽然是种子中最小的,却长得比其他蔬菜都大,并且长成一棵树,天空的飞鸟也来栖息。”
33 祂又给他们讲了个比喻:“天国就像面酵,妇人拿来掺在三斗面里,使整盆面都发起来。”
34 耶稣总是用比喻对众人讲这些事,祂每次对他们讲话时都用比喻。 35 这是要应验先知的话:“我要开口讲比喻,道出创世以来隐藏的事。”
解释毒麦的比喻
36 后来,耶稣离开人群,进到屋里。门徒也跟着进去,对耶稣说:“请为我们解释毒麦的比喻。”
37 耶稣说:“那撒下好种子的就是人子, 38 麦田代表整个世界,那些好种子就是天国的子民。毒麦就是那些属于魔鬼的人, 39 撒毒麦的仇敌就是魔鬼。收割的日子便是世界的末日,收割的工人就是天使。
40 “毒麦怎样被拔出来丢在火里烧,同样,在世界末日的时候, 41 人子也将派天使把一切引人犯罪和作孽的人从祂国里挑出来, 42 丢进火里。那时,他们将在那里哀哭切齿。 43 那时,义人要在他们天父的国度像太阳一样发出光辉。有耳朵的,都应当听。

New International Version
The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast(A)(B)
31 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like(C) a mustard seed,(D) which a man took and planted in his field. 32 Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”(E)
33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like(F) yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[a] of flour(G) until it worked all through the dough.”(H)
34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.(I) 35 So was fulfilled(J) what was spoken through the prophet:
“I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”[b](K)
The Parable of the Weeds Explained
36 Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable(L) of the weeds in the field.”
37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.(M) 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one,(N) 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest(O) is the end of the age,(P) and the harvesters are angels.(Q)
40 “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man(R) will send out his angels,(S) and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.(T) 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun(U) in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.(V)

King James Version
31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
