Matthew Chapter 7

1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

<>v. 1, <>Judge not

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

<>v. 2, <>mete

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

<>hypocrite

6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

<>dogs, <>swine

7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

<>vv. 7-8, <>Ask, and it shall be given you, <>seek, and ye shall find

8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

<>vv. 7-8

9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?

<>son, <>bread, <>stone

10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?

11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

<>children, <>how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

<>all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them

13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

<>Enter ye in at the strait gate, <>strait

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

<>narrow

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

<>vv. 15-16, <>v. 15, <>ravening

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

<>vv. 15-16

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

<>v. 17, <>tree … tree

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

<>neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

<>v. 19, <>hewn

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

<>vv. 21-23

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

<>vv. 21-23, <>prophesied

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

<>vv. 21-23, <>profess

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

<>whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, <>a rock

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

<>rain

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

<>every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:

<>ended these sayings, <>his doctrine

29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

<>he taught, <>one having authority, <>scribes
