King James Version

1 Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. 2 For in the measure that you judge, you will be judged, and in the measure that you use, it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how will you say to your brother, "Let me take the speck out of your eye," and behold, the log is in your eye? 5 Hypocrite, first remove the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. 6 Do not give the holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces. 7 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or what man among you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 "Or will he ask for a fish—will he give him a serpent instead?" 11 If therefore you, 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 those who ask Him? 12 Therefore, all things whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them; for this is the law and the prophets. 13 Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter through it. 14 For narrow is the gate and difficult is the way that leads to life, and few are those who find it. 15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do people gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Thus every good tree produces good fruits, but the rotten tree produces bad fruits. 18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore you will know them by their fruits. 21 Not everyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then I will confess to them that I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. 24 Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and does them will be likened to a wise man who built his house upon the rock. 25 And the rain descended, and the rivers came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it did not fall, for it was founded upon the rock. 26 And everyone who hears my words but does not do them will be likened to a foolish man, who built his house on the sand. 27 And the rain descended, and the rivers came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it. 28 And it came to pass that when Jesus finished these words, the crowds were astonished at his teaching. 29 For he was teaching them as one having authority, and not as their scribes.
