Matthew 13:43-45

The Voice

⁴³ And the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s kingdom. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

⁴⁴ The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure that is hidden in a field. A crafty man found the treasure buried there and buried it again so no one would know where it was. Thrilled, he went off and sold everything he had, and then he came back and bought the field with the hidden treasure part of the bargain.

⁴⁵ Or the kingdom of heaven is like a jeweler on the lookout for the finest pearls.
