Matthew 13:25-28 New English Translation (NET)

25. But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.

26. When the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.

27. So the slaves of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?’

28. He said, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the slaves replied, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them?’
