Matthew 7:1-8 ▼

1 Do not judge so that you will not be judged.

2 For by the standard you judge you will be judged, and the measure you use will be the measure you receive.

3 Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, but fail to see the beam of wood in your own?

4 Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye,' while there is a beam in your own?

5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.

6 Do not give what is holy to dogs or throw your pearls before pigs; otherwise they will trample them under their feet and turn around and tear you to pieces.

7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened for you.

8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
