RHE

NIV

24 Every one therefore that heareth these my words, and doth them, shall be likened to a wise man that built his house upon a rock,
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded on a rock.
25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
26 And every one that heareth these my words and doth them not, shall be like a foolish man that built his house upon the sand,
26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell, and great was the fall thereof.
27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
