13 Enter in at the strayte gate: for wyde is ye gate and broade is the waye that leadeth to destruccion: and many ther be which goo yn therat. 14 But strayte is the gate and narowe ys the waye which leadeth vnto lyfe: and feawe there be that fynde it. 15 Beware of false Prophetes which come to you in shepes clothinge but inwardly they are ravenynge wolves. 16 Ye shall knowe them by their frutes. Do men gaddre grapes of thornes? or figges of bryres? 17 Euen soo every good tree bryngeth forthe good frute. But a corrupte tree bryngethe forthe evyll frute. 18 A good tree canot brynge forthe bad frute: nor yet a bad tree can bringe forthe good frute. 19 Every tree that bryngethe not forthe good frute shalbe hewe doune and cast into the fyre. 20 Wherfore by their frutes ye shall knowe the. 21 Not all they that saye vnto me Master Master shall enter in to the kyngdome of heven: but he that dothe my fathers will which ys in heven. 22 Many will saye to me in that daye Master master have we not in thy name prophesied? And in thy name have caste oute devyls? And in thy name have done many miracles? 23 And then will I knowlege vnto them that I never knewe them. Departe from me ye workers of iniquite. 24 Whosoever heareth of me these sayinges and doethe the same I wyll lyken hym vnto a wyse man which bylt hys housse on a rocke: 25 and aboundance of rayne descended and the fluddes came and the wyndes blewe and bet vpon that same housse and it fell not because it was grounded on the rocke. 26 And whosoever heareth of me these sayinges and doth the not shalbe lykened vnto a folysh man which bilt hys housse apo the sondes: 27 and abundauce of rayne descended and the fluddes came and ye wyndes blewe and beet vpon that housse and it fell and great was the fall of it. 28 And it came to passe that when Iesus had ended these saynges the people were astonnyed at hys doctryne. 29 For he taught them as one havynge power and not as the Scribes.
