New King James Version
37 He answered and said to them: “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 (A)The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are (B)the sons of the wicked one. 39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil, (C)the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels. 40 Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. 41 The Son of Man will send out His angels, (D)and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, 42 (E)and will cast them into the furnace of fire. (F)There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 43 (G)Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. (H)He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

37 And He said, “The one who sows the good seed is (A)the Son of Man, 38 and the field is the world; and as for the good seed, these are (B)the sons of the kingdom; and the weeds are (C)the sons of (D)the evil one; 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is (E)the [a]end of the age; and the reapers are angels. 40 So just as the weeds are gathered up and burned with fire, so shall it be at (F)the [b]end of the age. 41 (G)The Son of Man (H)will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom [c]all (I)stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, 42 and they (J)will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place (K)there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 (L)Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.

37 He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man, 38 and the field is the world; and [as for] the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the weeds are the sons of the evil one; 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are angels. 40 So just as the weeds are gathered up and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend [those things by which people are led into sin], and all who practice evil [leading others into sin], 42 and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping [over sorrow and pain] and grinding of teeth [over distress and anger]. 43 Then the righteous [those who seek the will of God] will shine forth [radiating the new life] like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears [to hear], let him hear and heed My words.(A)

37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.(A) 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one,(B) 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest(C) is the end of the age,(D) and the harvesters are angels.(E)
40 “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man(F) will send out his angels,(G) and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.(H) 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun(I) in the kingdom of their Father.

Matthew 13:37-43
King James Version
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
