13 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

24Here is another parable that he put before them: 'The kingdom of Heaven is like this. A man sowed his field with good seed;The Parable of the Weeds among the Wheat Mt.13.24-30 (Plain of Gennesaret)Ἄλλην παραβολὴν παρέθηκεν αὐτοῖς λέγων, Ὡμοιώθη ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν ἀνθρώπῳ σπείραντι καλὸν σπέρμα ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ αὐτοῦ.
25but while everyone was asleep his enemy came, sowed darnel among the wheat, and made off. ἐν δὲ τῷ καθεύδειν τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ἦλθεν αὐτοῦ ὁ ἐχθρὸς καὶ ἐπέσπειρεν ζιζάνια ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ σίτου καὶ ἀπῆλθεν.
26When the corn sprouted and began to fill out, the darnel could be seen among it. ὅτε δὲ ἐβλάστησεν ὁ χόρτος καὶ καρπὸν ἐποίησεν, τότε ἐφάνη καὶ τὰ ζιζάνια.
27The farmer's men went to their master and said, "Sir, was it not good seed that you sowed in your field? Then where has the darnel come from?" προσελθόντες δὲ οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ οἰκοδεσπότου εἶπον αὐτῷ, Κύριε, οὐχὶ καλὸν σπέρμα ἐσπειρας ἐν τῷ σῷ ἀγρῷ; πόθεν οὖν ἐχει ζιζάνιὰ;
28"This is an enemy's doing", he replied. "Well then," they said, "shall we go and gather the darnel?" ὁ δὲ ἐφη αὐτοῖς, Ἐχθρὸς ἄνθρωπος τοῦτο ἐποίησεν. οἱ δὲ δοῦλοι λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Θέλεις οὖν ἀπελθόντες συλλέξωμεν αὐτά;
29"No," he answered; "in gathering it you might pull up the wheat at the same time. ὁ δέ φησιν, Οὄ, μήποτε συλλέγοντες τὰ ζιζάνια ἐκριζώσητε ἀμα αὐτοῖς τὸν σῖτον.
30Let them both grow together till harvest; and at harvest-time I will tell the reapers, 'Gather the darnel first, and tie it in bundles for burning; then collect the wheat into my barn.'"'
 ἀφετε συναυξάνεσθαι ἀμφότερα ἑως τοῦ θερισμοῦ· καὶ ἐν καιρῷ τοῦ θερισμοῦ ἐρῶ τοῖς θερισταῖς, Συλλέξατε πρῶτον τὰ ζιζάνια καὶ δήσατε αὐτὰ εἰς δέσμας πρὸς τὸ κατακαῦσαι αὐτά, τὸν δὲ σῖτον συναγάγετε εἰς τὴν ἀποθήκην μου.
