Matthew 13:44-47

⁴⁴The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field.

⁴⁵Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.

⁴⁶When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.

⁴⁷Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and caught all kinds of fish.
