But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.

And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.

And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:

For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
