A Dragnet

47 “Again, (A)the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered fish of every kind; 48 and when it was filled, they pulled it up on the beach; and they sat down and gathered the good fish into containers, but the bad they threw away. 49 So it will be at (B)the [a]end of the age: the angels will come forth and remove the wicked from among the righteous, 50 and they (C)will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place (D)there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

  1. Matthew 13:49 Or consummation

47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
