Matthew 13:27-31

The Voice

²⁷ So the farmer’s workers said to him, “Sir, why didn’t you sow good seeds in your field? Where did these weeds come from?”

²⁸ “My enemy must have done this,” replied the farmer.

“Should we go pull up all the weeds?” asked his workers.

²⁹ “No,” said the farmer. “It’s too risky. As you pull up the weeds, you would probably pull up some wheat as well. ³⁰ We’ll let them both grow until harvesttime. I will tell the harvesters to collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned, and only then to harvest the wheat and bring it to my barn.”
