Matthew 13:36-43

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁶ Then having sent away the multitudes, he came into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying: Expound to us the parable of the cockle of the field.

³⁷ Who made answer and said to them: He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of man.

³⁸ And the field, is the world. And the good seed are the children of the kingdom. And the cockle, are the children of the wicked one.

³⁹ And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world. And the reapers are the angels.

⁴⁰ Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world.

⁴¹ The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity.

⁴² And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

⁴³ Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
