New Testament

Matthew 13:23-26 New International Version (NIV)

23. But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.”

24. Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.

25. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.

26. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
