Mattityahu 13:46-54 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

46. And having found one precious peninah (pearl), he went away and liquidated everything he had and acquired it.

47. Again, the Malchut HaShomayim is like a reshet (net) having been cast into the lake, a reshet collecting and gathering dagim (fish) of all descriptions,

48. which, when this reshet (net) was filled, they hoisted it upon the shore, sat down, collected the tov (good) into a creel, and the rah (evil), they threw out.

49. Thus it will be at HaKetz HaOlam Hazeh (The End of This World). The malachim will go out and they will separate the reshaim from among the tzaddikim.

50. And they will throw the reshaim into the furnace of Eish. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

51. Did you have binah of all these things? They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Ken.

52. So Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Therefore, every sofer (scribe, Torah teacher, rabbi) who becomes a talmid of the Malchut HaShomayim is like a man [who is] a Baal Bayit, who takes out of his otzar (treasure), chadashot (new things) and also yeshanot (old things).

53. And it came about when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach finished these meshalim, that he went away from there.

54. And having come into Moshiach's shtetl, he began ministering as a moreh (teacher) in their shul, so that they were amazed and said, From where did this chochmah come to this one, this chochmah and these moftim (miracles, wonders, omens)?
