New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
The Use of Parables
34 Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables; without a parable he told them nothing. 35 This was to fulfil what had been spoken through the prophet:[a]
‘I will open my mouth to speak in parables;
I will proclaim what has been hidden from the foundation of the world.’[b]
Jesus Explains the Parable of the Weeds
36 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples approached him, saying, ‘Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.’
