Matthew 7:1-6

Judging Others

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

2 "For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and ²by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.

3 "Why do you ³look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?

4 "⁴Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye?

5 "You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

6 "⁵Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
