Matthew 13:44-46

The Voice

⁴⁴ The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure that is hidden in a field. A crafty man found the treasure buried there and buried it again so no one would know where it was. Thrilled, he went off and sold everything he had, and then he came back and bought the field with the hidden treasure part of the bargain.

⁴⁵ Or the kingdom of heaven is like a jeweler on the lookout for the finest pearls. ⁴⁶ When he found a pearl more beautiful and valuable than any jewel he had ever seen, the jeweler sold all he had and bought that pearl, his pearl of great price.
