Matthew 7:1-7

1“1Do not judgeG2919 soG2443 that you will not be judgedG2919. 2For in the wayG2917 you judgeG2919, you will be judgedG2919; and 2 3by your standardG3358 of measureG3354, it will be measuredG3354 to you. 3WhyG5101 do you 4lookG991 at the speckG2595 that is in your brother’sG80 eyeG3788, but do not noticeG2657 the logG1385 that is in your own eyeG3788? 4 5OrG2228 howG4459 6can you sayG3004 to your brotherG80, ‘LetG863 me takeG1544 the speckG2595 out of your eyeG3788,’ and beholdG2400, the logG1385 is in your own eyeG3788? 5You hypocriteG5273, firstG4413 takeG1544 the logG1385 out of your own eyeG3788, and thenG5119 you will seeG1227 clearlyG1227 to takeG1544 the speckG2595 out of your brother’sG80 eyeG3788.

6“7Do not giveG1325 whatG3588 is holyG40 to dogsG2965, and do not throwG906 your pearlsG3135 beforeG1715 swineG5519, orG3379 they will trampleG2662 them underG2662 their feetG4228, and turnG4762 and tearG4486 you to piecesG4486.

7“8 9AskG154, and 10it will be givenG1325 to you; 11seekG2212, and you will findG2147; 12knockG2925, and it will be openedG455 to you.
