Matthew 13:38


← Matthew 13:37 [words of Jesus] Matthew 13:38 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 13:39 [words of Jesus] →
He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
