36 Siis Jeesus laskis rahvahulgad ära minna ja tuli koju. Ja Ta jüngrid astusid Tema juure ning ütlesid: „Seleta meile tähendamissõna põllulustest."

37 Tema kostis ja ütles: „Kes head seemet külvab, on Inimese Poeg.

38 Põld on maailm; hea seeme on Kuningriigi lapsed, lusted aga on tigeda lapsed.

39 Vaenlane, kes neid külvab, on kurat. Aga lõikus on maailma-ajastu lõpp; lõikajad on Inglid.

40 Otsegu nüüd umbrohi kogutakse ja tulega ära põletatakse, nõnda peab ka sündima selle maailma-ajastu lõpul.

41 Inimese Poeg läkitab Oma Inglid ja Nemad koguvad Tema Kuningriigist kõik pahandused ja kõik need, kes teevad, mis on käsu vastu,

42 ja heidavad nad tuleahju; seal on ulumine ja hammaste kiristamine.

43 Siis paistavad õiged nagu päike Oma Isa Kuningriigis. Kel kõrvad on, see kuulgu!

36 Then he left the multitudes, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 And he answered and said, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; 38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one; 39 and the enemy that sowed them is the devil: and the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are angels. 40 As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so shall it be in the end of the world. 41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity, 42 and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. 43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears, let him hear.
