16 Ye shall know [1921] them [846] by [575] their [846] fruits [2590] [3385]. Do men gather [4816] grapes [4718] of [575] thorns [173], or [2228] figs [4810] of [575] thistles [5146]?
17 Even so [3779] every [3956] good [18] tree [1186] bringeth forth [4160] good [2570] fruit [2590]; but [1161] a corrupt [4550] tree [1186] bringeth forth [4160] evil [4190] fruit [2590].
18 A good [18] tree [1186] cannot [3756] [1410] bring forth [4160] evil [4190] fruit [2590], neither [3761] can a corrupt [4550] tree [1186] bring forth [4160] good [2570] fruit [2590].
19 Every [3956] tree [1186] that bringeth [4160] not [3361] forth [4160] good [2570] fruit [2590] is hewn down [1581], and [2532] cast [906] into [1519] the fire [4442].
20 Wherefore [686] by [575] their [846] fruits [2590] ye shall know [1921] them [846].
21 Not [3756] every one [3956] that saith [3004] unto me [3427], Lord [2962], Lord [2962], shall enter [1525] into [1519] the kingdom [932] of heaven [3772]; but [235] he that doeth [4160] the will [2307] of my [3450] Father [3962] which is in [1722] heaven [3772].
22 Many [4183] will say [2046] to me [3427] in [1722] that [1565] day [2250], Lord [2962], Lord [2962], have we [4395] not [3756] prophesied [4395] in thy [4674] name [3686]? and [2532] in thy [4674] name [3686] have cast out [1544] devils [1140]? and [2532] in thy [4674] name [3686] done [4160] many [4183] wonderful works [1411]?
23 And [2532] then [5119] will I profess [3670] unto them [846], [3754] I never [3763] knew [1097] you [5209]: depart [672] from [575] me [1700], ye that work [2038] iniquity [458].
24 Therefore [3767] whosoever [3956] [3748] heareth [191] these [5128] sayings [3056] of mine [3450], and [2532] doeth [4160] them [846], I will liken [3666] him [846] unto a wise [5429] man [435], which [3748] built [3618] his [846] house [3614] upon [1909] a rock [4073]:
25 And [2532] the rain [1028] descended [2597], and [2532] the floods [4215] came [2064], and [2532] the winds [417] blew [4154], and [2532] beat upon [4363] that [1565] house [3614]; and [2532] it fell [4098] not [3756]: for [1063] it was founded [2311] upon [1909] a rock [4073].
26 And [2532] every one [3956] that heareth [191] these [5128] sayings [3056] of mine [3450], and [2532] doeth [4160] them [846] not [3361], shall be likened [3666] unto a foolish [3474] man [435], which [3748] built [3618] his [846] house [3614] upon [1909] the sand [285]:
27 And [2532] the rain [1028] descended [2597], and [2532] the floods [4215] came [2064], and [2532] the winds [417] blew [4154], and [2532] beat upon [4350] that [1565] house [3614]; and [2532] it fell [4098]: and [2532] great [3173] was [2258] the fall [4431] of it [846].
3 And [1161] why [5101] beholdest [991] thou the mote [2595] that is in [1722] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788], but [1161] considerest [2657] not [3756] the beam [1385] that is in [1722] thine own [4674] eye [3788]?
4 Or [2228] how [4459] wilt thou say [2046] to thy [4675] brother [80], Let [863] me pull out [1544] the mote [2595] out of [575] thine [4675] eye [3788]; and [2532], behold [2400], a beam [1385] is in [1722] thine own [4675] eye [3788]?
5 Thou hypocrite [5273], first [4412] cast out [1544] the beam [1385] out of [1537] thine own [4675] eye [3788]; and [2532] then [5119] shalt thou see clearly [1227] to cast out [1544] the mote [2595] out of [1537] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788].
3 And [1161] why [5101] beholdest [991] thou the mote [2595] that is in [1722] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788], but [1161] considerest [2657] not [3756] the beam [1385] that is in [1722] thine own [4674] eye [3788]?
3 And [1161] why [5101] beholdest [991] thou the mote [2595] that is in [1722] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788], but [1161] considerest [2657] not [3756] the beam [1385] that is in [1722] thine own [4674] eye [3788]?
3 And [1161] why [5101] beholdest [991] thou the mote [2595] that is in [1722] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788], but [1161] considerest [2657] not [3756] the beam [1385] that is in [1722] thine own [4674] eye [3788]?
4 Or [2228] how [4459] wilt thou say [2046] to thy [4675] brother [80], Let [863] me pull out [1544] the mote [2595] out of [575] thine [4675] eye [3788]; and [2532], behold [2400], a beam [1385] is in [1722] thine own [4675] eye [3788]?
5 Thou hypocrite [5273], first [4412] cast out [1544] the beam [1385] out of [1537] thine own [4675] eye [3788]; and [2532] then [5119] shalt thou see clearly [1227] to cast out [1544] the mote [2595] out of [1537] thy [4675] brother's [80] eye [3788].
