马太福音13:44～52
藏宝和寻珠的比喻
44 “天国好比宝贝藏在地里，人发现了就把它藏起来，欢欢喜喜地去*变卖一切所有的，买这块地。
45 “天国又好比商人寻找好的珍珠，
46 发现一颗贵重的珍珠，就去变卖他一切所有的，买下这颗珍珠。”
撒网的比喻
47 “天国又好比网撒在海里，*聚拢各种鱼类，
48 网一满，人们就把它拉上岸，坐下来，拣好的收在桶里，不好的丢掉。
49 世代的终结也要这样：天使要出来，把恶人从义人中分别出来，
50 丢在火炉里，在那里要哀哭切齿了。”
新旧库藏
51 耶稣说：“这一切的话你们都明白了吗？”他们对他说：“明白了。”
52 他对他们说：“凡文士学习作天国的门徒，就像一个家的主人从他库里拿出新的和旧的东西来。”
44 “God’s kingdom is like a treasure hidden in a field for years and then accidentally found by a trespasser. The finder is ecstatic—what a find!—and proceeds to sell everything he owns to raise money and buy that field.
45-46 “Or, God’s kingdom is like a jewel merchant on the hunt for excellent pearls. Finding one that is flawless, he immediately sells everything and buys it.
47-50 “Or, God’s kingdom is like a fishnet cast into the sea, catching all kinds of fish. When it is full, it is hauled onto the beach. The good fish are picked out and put in a tub; those unfit to eat are thrown away. That’s how it will be when the curtain comes down on history. The angels will come and cull the bad fish and throw them in the garbage. There will be a lot of desperate complaining, but it won’t do any good.”
51 Jesus asked, “Are you starting to get a handle on all this?” They answered, “Yes.”
52 He said, “Then you see how every student well-trained in God’s kingdom is like the owner of a general store who can put his hands on anything you need, old or new, exactly when you need it.”
