Matthew 7:15-19
15“BewareG4337 of the 1falseG5578 prophetsG5578, whoG3748 comeG2064 to you in sheep’sG4263 clothingG1742, but inwardlyG2081 are 2ravenousG727 wolvesG3074.
16You will 34knowG1921 them by their fruitsG2590. 5GrapesG4718 are not gatheredG4816 from thornG173 bushes, norG2228 figsG4810 from thistlesG5146, are they?
17SoG3779 6everyG3956 goodG18 treeG1186 bearsG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590, but the badG4550 treeG1186 bearsG4160 badG4190 fruitG2590.
18A goodG18 treeG1186 cannotG1410G3756 bearG5342 badG4190 fruitG2590, norG3761 can a badG4550 treeG1186 bearG5342 goodG2570 fruitG2590.
197EveryG3956 treeG1186 that does not bearG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is cutG1581 downG1581 and thrownG906 into the fireG4442.
