Mat 7:1 Iudge not, that ye be not iudged. Mat 7:2 For with what iudgement ye iudge, ye shalbe iudged: And with what measure ye meate, it shalbe measured to you agayne. Mat 7:3 Why seest thou a mote in thy brothers eye, but perceiuest not the beame that is in thyne owne eye? Mat 7:4 Or, howe sayest thou to thy brother: suffer me, I wyll plucke out a mote out of thyne eye: and beholde, a beame is in thyne owne eye? Mat 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first caste out the beame out of thine owne eye: and then shalt thou see clearely, to plucke out the mote out of thy brothers eye. Mat 7:6 Geue not that which is holy, vnto dogges, neyther caste ye your pearles before swyne, lest they treade them vnder their feete, and turning agayne, all to rent you. Mat 7:7 Aske, and it shalbe geuen you: seke, and ye shall fynde: knocke, and it shalbe opened vnto you. Mat 7:8 For he that asketh, receaueth: and he that seketh, fyndeth: and to hym that knocketh, it shalbe opened. Mat 7:9 Is there any among you, which, yf his sonne aske hym bread, wyll geue hym a stone? Mat 7:10 Or yf he aske fyshe, wyll he geue hym a serpent? Mat 7:11 If ye then, beyng euyll, knowe to geue your chyldren good gyftes: howe much more shall your father, which is in heauen, geue good thynges, to them that aske hym? Mat 7:12 Therfore all thynges, whatsoeuer ye woulde that men shoulde do to you, do ye euen so to them: For this is the lawe, and the prophetes. Mat 7:13 Enter in at the strayte gate. For wyde is the gate, and brode is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in therat. Mat 7:14 Because, strayte is the gate, and narowe is the way, which leadeth vnto lyfe, and fewe there be that fynde it. Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophetes, which come to you in sheepes clothyng: but inwardly they are rauenyng woolfes. Mat 7:16 Ye shall knowe them by theyr fruites, Do men gather grapes of thornes? or fygges of thystles? Mat 7:17 Euen so, euery good tree, bryngeth foorth good fruite: But a corrupt tree, bryngeth foorth euyll fruite. Mat 7:18 A good tree, can not bryng foorth bad fruite: neither can a bad tree, bryng foorth good fruite. Mat 7:19 Euery tree that bryngeth not foorth good fruite, is hewen downe, and cast into the fyre. Mat 7:20 Wherfore, by theyr fruites, ye shall knowe them. Mat 7:21 Not euery one, that sayeth vnto me Lorde, Lorde, shall enter into the kyngdome of heauen: but he that doeth the wyll of my father, which is in heauen. Mat 7:22 Many wyll say to me in that day, Lorde Lorde, haue we not prophesied thorowe thy name? and thorowe thy name haue cast out deuyls? & done many great workes thorowe thy name? Mat 7:23 And then wyll I confesse vnto them, I neuer knewe you: Depart from me, ye that worke iniquitie. Mat 7:24 Therfore, whosoeuer heareth of me these sayinges, and doeth the same, I wyll lyken hym vnto a wyse man, which buylt his house vpon a rocke: Mat 7:25 And the rayne descended, and the fluddes came, and the wyndes blewe, and beat vpon that house, and it fell not, because it was grounded on a rocke. Mat 7:26 And euery one that heareth of me these sayinges, and doeth them not, shalbe lykened vnto a foolyshe man, which buylt his house vpon the sande: Mat 7:27 And the rayne descended, and the fluddes came, and the wyndes blewe, and beat vpon that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it. Mat 7:28 And it came to passe, that when Iesus had ended these sayinges, the people were astonied at his doctrine. Mat 7:29 For he taught them, as one hauyng power, and not as the Scribes.
