As therefore the tares are gathered together and burnt in fire; so shall it be in the end of this time. The Son of man shall send forth his messengers, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and those doing iniquity; And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the just emit a brilliant light as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He having ears to hear, let him hear.

Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a wholesale merchant, seeking beautiful pearls: Who, finding one pearl of great value, having departed, he sold all things which he had, and purchased it. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a large sweep-net, cast into the sea, and having gathered of every kind: Which, when it was filled, having raised up upon the shore, and having set down, they gathered the good things into vessels, and the rotten things they cast without. So shall it be in the end of time; the messengers shall come forth, and separate the evil from the midst of the just, And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
