Matthew 7:1-7

1“1Do not 2judgeG2919, soG2443 thatG2443 you will not be judgedG2919. 2For in the wayG2917 you judgeG2919, you will be judgedG2919; and 3 4by your standardG3358 of measureG3354, it will be measuredG3354 to you. 3WhyG5101 do you 5lookG991 at the 6speckG2595 that is in your brother’sG80 eyeG3788, but do not noticeG2657 the logG1385 that is in your own eyeG3788? 4 7OrG2228 howG4459 8can you sayG3004 to your brotherG80, ‘LetG863 me takeG1544 the 9speckG2595 outG1544 of your eyeG3788,’ and lookG2400, the logG1385 is in your own eyeG3788? 5You hypocriteG5273, firstG4413 takeG1544 the logG1385 outG1544 of your own eyeG3788, and thenG5119 you will seeG1227 clearlyG1227 to takeG1544 the 10speckG2595 outG1544 of your brother’sG80 eyeG3788!

6“11Do not giveG1325 whatG3588 is holyG40 to dogsG2965, and do not throwG906 your pearlsG3135 beforeG1715 pigsG5519, orG3379 they will trampleG2662 them underG2662 their feetG4228, and turnG4762 and tearG4486 you toG4486 piecesG4486.

7“12 13AskG154, and 14it will be givenG1325 to you; 15seekG2212, and you will findG2147; 16knockG2925, and it will be openedG455 to you.
