Matthew 7

1JudgeG2919 not, that ye be not judgedG2919. 2For with what judgmentG2917 ye judgeG2919, ye shall be judgedG2919: and with what measureG3354 ye mete, it shall be measuredG3354 unto you. 3And whyG5101 beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’sG80 eyeG3788, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eyeG3788? 4Or howG4459 wilt thou sayG3004 to thy brotherG80, Let me castG1544 out the mote out of thine eyeG3788; and lo, the beam is in thine own eyeG3788? 5Thou hypocriteG5273, castG1544 out firstG4413 the beam out of thine own eyeG3788; and then shalt thou seeG1227 clearlyG1227 to castG1544 out the mote out of thy brother’sG80 eyeG3788.

6GiveG1325 not that which is holyG40 unto the dogsG2965, neither castG906 your pearlsG3135 before the swine, lestG3361 haply they trampleG2662 them under their feetG4228, and turnG4762 and rend you.

7AskG154, and it shall be givenG1325 you; seekG2212, and ye shall findG2147; knockG2925, and it shall be openedG455 unto you: 8for every oneG3588 that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be openedG455. 9Or what manG444 isG1510 there of you, who, if his sonG5207 shall askG154 him for a loafG740, will giveG1929 him a stoneG3037; 10or if he shall askG154 for a fishG2486, will giveG1929 him a serpentG3789? 11If ye thenG3767, beingG1510 evilG4190, know howG4214 to giveG1325 goodG18 giftsG1390 unto your childrenG5043, howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 shall your FatherG3962 who isG1510 in heavenG3772 giveG1325 goodG18 thingsG18 to them that askG154 him? 12All thingsG3778 thereforeG3767 whatsoever ye would that menG444 should do unto you, evenG2532 soG2443 do ye alsoG2532 unto them: for this isG1510 the lawG3551 and the prophetsG4396.

13EnterG1525 ye in by the narrowG4728 gateG4439: for wide isG1510 the gateG4439, and broad isG1510 the wayG3598, that leadeth to destructionG684, and manyG4183 areG1510 they that enterG1525 in thereby. 14For narrowG4728 isG1510 the gateG4439, and straitened the wayG3598, that leadeth unto lifeG2222, and fewG3641 areG1510 they that findG2147 it.

15BewareG4337 of falseG5578 prophetsG5578, who comeG2064 to you in sheep’sG4263 clothingG1742, but inwardlyG2081 areG1510 ravening wolvesG3074. 16By their fruitsG2590 ye shall knowG1921 them. Do men gatherG4816 grapes of thornsG173, or figsG4810 of thistles? 17Even so every goodG18 treeG1186 bringeth forth goodG18 fruitG2590; but the corrupt treeG1186 bringeth forth evilG4190 fruitG2590. 18A goodG18 treeG1186 cannot bringG5342 forth evilG4190 fruitG2590, neither can a corrupt treeG1186 bringG5342 forth goodG18 fruitG2590. 19Every treeG1186 that bringeth not forth goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, and castG906 into the fireG4442. 20ThereforeG686 by their fruitsG2590 ye shall knowG1921 them. 21Not every oneG3588 that saith unto me, LordG2962, LordG2962, shall enterG1525 into the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772; but he that doeth the will of my FatherG3962 who is in heavenG3772. 22ManyG4183 will sayG3004 to me in that dayG2250, LordG2962, LordG2962, did we not prophesyG4395 by thy nameG3686, and by thy nameG3686 castG1544 out demonsG1140, and by thy nameG3686 do manyG4183 mightyG1411 works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I neverG3763 knewG1097 you: depart from me, ye that workG2038 iniquity.

24Every one thereforeG3767 that heareth these wordsG3056 of mineG1473, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wiseG5429 manG435, who builtG3618 his houseG3614 upon the rockG4073: 25and the rainG1028 descendedG2597, and the floods cameG2064, and the windsG417 blewG4154, and beat upon that houseG3614; and it fellG4098 not: for it was foundedG2311 upon the rockG4073. 26And every one that heareth these wordsG3056 of mineG1473, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolishG3474 manG435, who builtG3618 his houseG3614 upon the sandG285: 27and the rainG1028 descendedG2597, and the floods cameG2064, and the windsG417 blewG4154, and smote upon that houseG3614; and it fellG4098: and greatG3173 wasG1510 the fallG4098 thereof.

28And it cameG1096 to passG1096, whenG3753 JesusG2424 had finishedG5055 these wordsG3056, the multitudesG3793 were astonishedG1605 at his teachingG1322: 29for he taughtG1321 them asonehaving authorityG1849, and not as their scribesG1122.
