Matthew 7:1–9
1“Don’t judge, so that you won’t be judged.↗
2For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.↗
3Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?↗
4Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ and behold, the beam is in your own eye?↗
5You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.↗
6“Don’t give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.↗
7“Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.↗
8For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.↗
9Or who is there among you who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?↗
