Matthew 7:1-10

1 "Judge not, that you may not be judged;
2 for your own judgement will be dealt--and your own measure meted--to yourselves.
3 And why do you look at the splinter in your brother's eye, and not notice the beam which is in your own eye?
4 Or how say to your brother, `Allow me to take the splinter out of your eye,' while the beam is in your own eye?
5 Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly how to remove the splinter from your brother's eye.
6 "Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor throw your pearls to the swine; otherwise they will trample them under their feet and then turn and attack you.
7 "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
8 For it is always he who asks that receives, he who seeks that finds, and he who knocks that has the door opened to him.
9 What man is there among you, who if his son shall ask him for bread will offer him a stone?
10 Or if the son shall ask him for a fish will offer him a snake?
