27And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, Sir, did you not put good seed in your field? how then has it evil plants?
28And he said, Someone has done this in hate. And the servants say to him, Is it your pleasure that we go and take them up?
29But he says, No, for fear that by chance while you take up the evil plants, you may be rooting up the grain with them.
30Let them come up together till the getting in of the grain; and then I will say to the workers, Take up first the evil plants, and put them together for burning: but put the grain into my store-house.
31He put another story before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his field:
32Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.
33Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
