31“1ThereforeG1223G3778 I sayG3004 to you, anyG3956 sinG266 and blasphemyG988 shall be forgivenG863 peopleG444, but blasphemyG988 against the SpiritG4151 shall not be forgivenG863. 322WhoeverG3739G1437 3speaksG3004 a wordG3056 againstG2596 the SonG5207 of ManG444, it shall be forgivenG863 him; but whoeverG3739G302 4speaksG3004 againstG2596 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, it shall not be forgivenG863 him, eitherG3777 in 5thisG3778 ageG165 orG3777 in the age to comeG3195.

33“EitherG2228 makeG4160 the treeG1186 goodG2570 and its fruitG2590 goodG2570, orG2228 makeG4160 the treeG1186 badG4550 and its fruitG2590 badG4550; for 6the treeG1186 is knownG1097 by its fruitG2590. 347You broodG1081 of vipersG2191, howG4459 canG1410 you, beingG1510 evilG4190, speakG2980 8what is goodG18? 9For the mouthG4750 speaksG2980 out of that whichG4051 fillsG4051 the heartG2588. 3510The goodG18 manG444 bringsG1544 out of his goodG18 treasureG2344 11what is goodG18; and the evilG4190 manG444 bringsG1544 out of his evilG4190 treasureG2344 12what is evilG4190. 36But I tellG3004 you that everyG3956 13carelessG692 wordG4487 that peopleG444 14speakG2980, they shall giveG591 an accountingG3056 for it in 15the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920. 37For 16by your wordsG3056 you will be justifiedG1344, and 17by your wordsG3056 you will be condemnedG2613.”
