but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away.

But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

And the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it tares?

But he saith, Nay; lest haply while ye gather up the tares, ye root up the wheat with them.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.

Then he left the multitudes, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one ;

As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so shall it be in the end of the world.
