《圣经》（新旧约全书）

左咡

及至人睡觉的时候，有仇敌来，将稗子撒在麦子里，就走了。But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

左咡

到长苗吐穗的时候，稗子也显出来。But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

田主的仆人来告诉他说，主阿，你不是撒好种在田里吗。从那里来的稗子呢。So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

主人说，这是仇敌作的。仆人说，你要我们去薅出来吗。He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

左咡

主人说，不必，恐怕薅稗子，连麦子也拔出来。But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

左咡

这两样一齐长，等着收割。当收割的时候，我要对收割的人说，先将稗子薅出来，捆成捆，留着烧。惟有麦子，要收在仓里。Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn

左咡

他又设个比喻对他们说，天国好像一粒芥菜种，有人拿去种在田里。Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:

左咡

这原是百种里最小的。等到长起来，却比各样的菜都大，且成了树。天上的飞鸟来宿在他的枝上。Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

左咡

他又对他们讲个比喻说，天国好像面酵，有妇人拿来，藏在三斗面里，直等全团都发起来。Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

左咡

这都是耶稣用比喻对众人说的话。若不用比喻，就不对他们说什么。All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
