Matthew 7:1-9

1 Judge not, that ye may not be judged;
2 for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.
3 But why lookest thou on the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, but observest not the beam that is in thine eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Allow [me], I will cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine eye?
5 Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of the eye of thy brother.
6 Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and turning round rend you.
7 Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and ye shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
8 For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
9 Or what man is there of you who, if his son shall ask of him a loaf of bread, will give him a stone;
