Matthew 7:13-23

13Enter ye inG1525 atG1223 the narrowG4728 gateG4439: forG3754 wideG4116 is the gateG4439, andG2532 broadG2149 is the wayG3598, that leadethG520 toG1519 destructionG684, andG2532 manyG4183 there areG1526 whoG3588 go inG1525 byG1223 itG846:1 14BecauseG3754 smallG4728 is the gateG4439, andG2532 narrowG2346 is the wayG3598, whichG3588 leadethG520 toG1519 lifeG2222, andG2532 fewG3641 there areG1526 that findG2147 itG846.2

15BewareG1161G4337 ofG575 false prophetsG5578, whoG3748 comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209 inG1722 sheep’sG4263 clothingG1742, butG1161 inwardlyG2081 they areG1526 raveningG727 wolvesG3074. 16Ye shall knowG1921 themG846 byG575 theirG846 fruitsG2590G3385. Do men gatherG4816 grapesG4718 fromG575 thornsG173, orG2228 figsG4810 fromG575 thistlesG5146? 17Even soG3779 everyG3956 goodG18 treeG1186 bringeth forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590; butG1161 a corruptG4550 treeG1186 bringeth forthG4160 badG4190 fruitG2590. 18A goodG18 treeG1186 cannotG3756G1410 bring forthG4160 badG4190 fruitG2590, neitherG3761 can a corruptG4550 treeG1186 bring forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590. 19EveryG3956 treeG1186 that bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442. 20ThereforeG686 byG575 theirG846 fruitsG2590 ye shall knowG1921 themG846.

21NotG3756 every oneG3956 that saithG3004 to meG3427, LordG2962, LordG2962, shall enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772; butG235 he that doethG4160 the willG2307 of myG3450 FatherG3962 who is inG1722 heavenG3772. 22ManyG4183 will sayG2046 to meG3427 inG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250, LordG2962, LordG2962, have weG4395 notG3756 prophesiedG4395 in thyG4674 nameG3686? andG2532 in thyG4674 nameG3686 have cast outG1544 demonsG1140? andG2532 in thyG4674 nameG3686 doneG4160 manyG4183 wonderful worksG1411? 23AndG2532 thenG5119 will I professG3670 to themG846, I neverG3763 knewG1097 youG5209: departG672 fromG575 meG1700, ye that workG2038 iniquityG458.
