Matthew 7 ‘Do not judge, so that you may not be judged.
2For with the judgement you make you will be judged, and the measure you give
will be the measure you get. 3Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s* eye,
but do not notice the log in your own eye? 4Or how can you say to your neighbor,
* “Let me take the speck out of your eye”, while the log is in your own eye?
5You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see
clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor’s* eye. 6 ‘Do not give what is
holy to dogs; and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample
them under foot and turn and maul you. 7 ‘Ask, and it will be given to you;
search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. 8For
everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone
who knocks, the door will be opened. 9Is there anyone among you who, if your
child asks for bread, will give a stone? 10Or if the child asks for a fish,
will give a snake? 11If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to
those who ask him!
