44. “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure, buried in a field, that a man found and reburied. Then in his joy he goes and sells everything he has and buys that field.
45. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.
46. When he found one priceless pearl, he went and sold everything he had, and bought it.
47. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a large net thrown into the sea. It collected every kind of fish,
48. and when it was full, they dragged it ashore, sat down, and gathered the good fish into containers, but threw out the worthless ones.
49. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out, separate the evil people from the righteous,
50. and throw them into the blazing furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
