| 1 Judge not, that you may not be judged, | |
| 2 For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again. | |
| 3 Any why seest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye; and seest not the beam that is in thy own eye? | |
| 4 Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye? | |
| 5 Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam in thy own eye, and then shalt thou see to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. | |
| 6 Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you. | |
| 7 Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you. | |
| 8 For every one that asketh, receiveth: and he that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened. | |
| 9 Or what man is there among you, of whom if his son shall ask bread, will he reach him a stone? | |
| 10 Or if he shall ask him a fish, will he reach him a serpent? | |
| 11 If you then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children: how much more will your Father who is in heaven, give good things to them that ask him? | |
| 12 All things therefore whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you also to them. For this is the law and the prophets. | |
| 13 Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there are who go in thereat. | |
| 14 How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it! | |
| 15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. | |
| 16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? | |
| 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit. | |
| 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit. | |
| 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire. | |
| 20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them. | |
| 21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. | |
| 22 Many will say to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have not we prophesied in thy name, and cast out devils in thy name, and done many miracles in thy name? | |
| 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity. | |
| 24 Every one therefore that heareth these my words, and doth them, shall be likened to a wise man that built his house upon a rock, | |
| 25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded on a rock. | |
| 26 And every one that heareth these my words, and doth them not, shall be like a foolish man that built his house upon the sand, | |
| 27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell, and great was the fall thereof. | |
| 28 And it came to pass when Jesus had fully ended these words, the people were in admiration at his doctrine. | |
| 29 For he was teaching them as one having power, and not as the scribes and Pharisees. | |
