Matthew 13:26-30 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

26. Later, the wheat grew and heads of grain grew on the wheat plants. But at the same time the weeds also grew.

27. Then the man’s servants came to him and said, ‘You planted good seed in your field. Where did the weeds come from?’

28. The man answered, ‘An enemy planted weeds.’ The servants asked, ‘Do you want us to pull up the weeds?’

29. The man answered, ‘No, because when you pull up the weeds, you might also pull up the wheat.

30. Let the weeds and the wheat grow together until the harvest time. At harvest time I will tell the workers this: First gather the weeds and tie them together to be burned. Then gather the wheat and bring it to my barn.’”
