1 “Don’t|strong="G3361" judge|strong="G2919" others, and|strong="G2919" God will not|strong="G3361" judge|strong="G2919" you|strong="G3361".
2 If|strong="G2532" you|strong="G5210" judge|strong="G2919" others|strong="G3739", you|strong="G5210" will|strong="G3739" be|strong="G2532" judged|strong="G2919" the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G3739" way|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210" judge|strong="G2919" them|strong="G1722". God will|strong="G3739" treat you|strong="G5210" the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G3739" way|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210" treat others|strong="G3739".
3 “Why|strong="G5101" do|strong="G5101" you|strong="G4771" notice|strong="G2657" the|strong="G3588" small piece of|strong="G1722" dust that|strong="G0991" is|strong="G5101" in|strong="G1722" your|strong="G4674" friend’s eye|strong="G3788", but|strong="G1161" you|strong="G4771" don’t|strong="G3756" notice|strong="G2657" the|strong="G3588" big piece of|strong="G1722" wood that|strong="G0991" is|strong="G5101" in|strong="G1722" your|strong="G4674" own|strong="G3788"?
4 Why|strong="G4459" do|strong="G3708" you|strong="G4771" say|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" your|strong="G0863" friend, ‘Let|strong="G0863" me|strong="G3004" take that|strong="G3004" piece of|strong="G1537" dust out|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" your|strong="G0863" eye’? Look|strong="G2400" at|strong="G1722" yourself|strong="G4771" first! You|strong="G4771" still have|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3004" big piece of|strong="G1537" wood in|strong="G1722" your|strong="G0863" own|strong="G3788" eye|strong="G3788".
5 You|strong="G4771" are|strong="G3588" a|strong="G2532" hypocrite|strong="G5273"! First|strong="G4413", take the|strong="G3588" wood out|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" your|strong="G2532" own|strong="G3788" eye|strong="G3788". Then|strong="G2532" you|strong="G4771" will|strong="G2532" see|strong="G1227" clearly|strong="G1227" to|strong="G2532" get the|strong="G3588" dust out|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" your|strong="G2532" friend’s eye|strong="G3788".
6 “Don’t|strong="G3361" give|strong="G1325" something that|strong="G0846" is|strong="G3588" holy|strong="G0040" to|strong="G2532" dogs|strong="G2965". They|strong="G0846" will|strong="G2532" only|strong="G2532" turn|strong="G4762" and|strong="G2532" hurt you|strong="G5210". And|strong="G2532" don’t|strong="G3361" throw|strong="G0906" your|strong="G2532" pearls|strong="G3135" to|strong="G2532" pigs|strong="G5519". They|strong="G0846" will|strong="G2532" only|strong="G2532" step on|strong="G1722" them|strong="G0846".
7 “Continue|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2212" ask|strong="G0154", and|strong="G2532" God|strong="G1325" will|strong="G2532" give|strong="G1325" to|strong="G2212" you|strong="G5210". Continue|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2212" search|strong="G2212", and|strong="G2532" you|strong="G5210" will|strong="G2532" find|strong="G2147". Continue|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2212" knock|strong="G2925", and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" door will|strong="G2532" open|strong="G0455" for|strong="G2212" you|strong="G5210".
8 Yes|strong="G1063", whoever|strong="G3588" continues to|strong="G2212" ask|strong="G0154" will|strong="G3956" receive|strong="G2983". Whoever|strong="G3588" continues to|strong="G2212" look will|strong="G3956" find|strong="G2147". And|strong="G2532" whoever|strong="G3588" continues to|strong="G2212" knock|strong="G2925" will|strong="G3956" have|strong="G2532" the|strong="G3956" door opened|strong="G0455" for|strong="G1063" them|strong="G2147".
9 “Do|strong="G1510" any|strong="G3739" of|strong="G5207" you|strong="G5210" have|strong="G1510" a|strong="G1510" son|strong="G5207"? If he|strong="G0846" asked|strong="G0154" for|strong="G0154" bread|strong="G0740", would|strong="G0846" you|strong="G5210" give|strong="G1929" him|strong="G0846" a|strong="G1510" rock?
10 Or|strong="G2228" if|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" asked|strong="G0154" for|strong="G0154" a|strong="G2228" fish|strong="G2486", would|strong="G0846" you|strong="G2532" give|strong="G1929" him|strong="G0846" a|strong="G2228" snake|strong="G3789"? Of|strong="G2228" course not|strong="G3361"!
11 You|strong="G5210" people|strong="G0846" are|strong="G1510" so|strong="G3767" bad|strong="G4190", but|strong="G1487" you|strong="G5210" still|strong="G3123" know|strong="G1492" how|strong="G4214" to|strong="G1722" give|strong="G1325" good|strong="G0018" things|strong="G0018" to|strong="G1722" your|strong="G1487" children|strong="G5043". So|strong="G3767" surely your|strong="G1487" heavenly|strong="G3772" Father|strong="G3962" will|strong="G1510" give|strong="G1325" good|strong="G0018" things|strong="G0018" to|strong="G1722" those|strong="G3588" who|strong="G3588" ask|strong="G0154" him|strong="G0846".
12 “Do|strong="G4160" for|strong="G1063" others|strong="G0444" what|strong="G3588" you|strong="G5210" would|strong="G0846" want|strong="G2309" them|strong="G0846" to|strong="G2443" do|strong="G4160" for|strong="G1063" you|strong="G5210". This|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G3956" meaning of|strong="G3551" the|strong="G3956" Law|strong="G3551" of|strong="G3551" Moses|strong="G0846" and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G3956" teaching of|strong="G3551" the|strong="G3956" prophets|strong="G4396".
13 “You|strong="G3754" can enter|strong="G1525" true life only|strong="G2532" through|strong="G1223" the|strong="G3588" narrow|strong="G4728" gate|strong="G4439". The|strong="G3588" gate|strong="G4439" to|strong="G1519" hell is|strong="G1510" very|strong="G0846" wide|strong="G4116", and|strong="G2532" there|strong="G1510" is|strong="G1510" plenty of|strong="G1223" room on|strong="G1519" the|strong="G3588" road|strong="G3598" that|strong="G3754" leads|strong="G0520" there|strong="G1510". Many|strong="G4183" people|strong="G0846" go|strong="G1525" that|strong="G3754" way|strong="G3598".
14 But|strong="G2532" the|strong="G3588" gate|strong="G4439" that|strong="G3754" opens the|strong="G3588" way|strong="G3598" to|strong="G1519" true life|strong="G2222" is|strong="G1510" narrow|strong="G4728". And|strong="G2532" the|strong="G3588" road|strong="G3598" that|strong="G3754" leads|strong="G0520" there|strong="G1510" is|strong="G1510" hard to|strong="G1519" follow. Only|strong="G2532" a|strong="G1510" few|strong="G3641" people|strong="G0846" find|strong="G2147" it|strong="G0846".
15 “Be|strong="G1510" careful|strong="G4337" of|strong="G0575" false|strong="G5578" prophets|strong="G5578". They|strong="G1161" come|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" you|strong="G5210" and|strong="G1161" look gentle like|strong="G4314" sheep|strong="G4263". But|strong="G1161" they|strong="G1161" are|strong="G1510" really dangerous like|strong="G4314" wolves|strong="G3074".
16 You|strong="G1438" will|strong="G0846" know|strong="G1921" these|strong="G3588" people|strong="G0846" because|strong="G0575" of|strong="G0575" what|strong="G3588" they|strong="G0846" do|strong="G2228". Good things|strong="G0846" don’t come from|strong="G0575" people|strong="G0846" who|strong="G3588" are|strong="G3588" bad, just|strong="G0846" as|strong="G1438" grapes|strong="G4718" don’t come from|strong="G0575" thornbushes, and|strong="G0846" figs|strong="G4810" don’t come from|strong="G0575" thorny weeds.
17 In|strong="G3956" the|strong="G3956" same|strong="G3779" way|strong="G3779", every|strong="G3956" good|strong="G0018" tree|strong="G1186" produces|strong="G4160" good|strong="G0018" fruit|strong="G2590", and|strong="G1161" bad|strong="G4190" trees|strong="G1186" produce|strong="G4160" bad|strong="G4190" fruit|strong="G2590".

19 Every|strong="G3956" tree|strong="G1186" that|strong="G3956" does|strong="G4160" not|strong="G3361" produce|strong="G4160" good|strong="G2570" fruit|strong="G2590" is|strong="G2532" cut|strong="G1581" down|strong="G1581" and|strong="G2532" thrown|strong="G0906" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G3956" fire|strong="G4442".
20 You|strong="G1438" will|strong="G0846" know|strong="G1921" these|strong="G3588" false people|strong="G0846" by|strong="G0575" what|strong="G3588" they|strong="G0846" do.
21 “Not|strong="G3756" everyone|strong="G3956" who|strong="G3588" calls|strong="G3004" me|strong="G3004" Lord|strong="G2962" will|strong="G2307" enter|strong="G1525" God’s kingdom|strong="G0932".

22 On|strong="G1722" that|strong="G1565" last Day|strong="G2250" many|strong="G4183" will|strong="G2962" call|strong="G3004" me|strong="G3004" Lord|strong="G2962". They|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2962" say|strong="G3004", ‘Lord|strong="G2962", Lord|strong="G2962", by|strong="G1722" the|strong="G3588" power|strong="G1411" of|strong="G2250" your|strong="G4674" name|strong="G3686" we|strong="G2532" spoke|strong="G3004" for|strong="G1722" God|strong="G3004". And|strong="G2532" by|strong="G1722" your|strong="G4674" name|strong="G3686" we|strong="G2532" forced|strong="G1544" out|strong="G1544" demons|strong="G1140" and|strong="G2532" did|strong="G4160" many|strong="G4183" miracles|strong="G1411".’
23 Then|strong="G2532" I|strong="G1473" will|strong="G3748" tell those|strong="G3588" people|strong="G0846" clearly, ‘Get away|strong="G0575" from|strong="G0575" me|strong="G1473", you|strong="G5210" people|strong="G0846" who|strong="G3588" do|strong="G2532" wrong.

But|strong="G2532" it|strong="G2532" did|strong="G2064" not|strong="G3756" fall|strong="G4098" because|strong="G1063" it|strong="G2532" was|strong="G3588" built on|strong="G1909" rock|strong="G4073".
