Luke 6:39–45

³⁹And he spoke also to them a similitude: Can the blind lead the blind? Do they not both fall into the ditch?

⁴⁰The disciple is not above his master: but every one shall be perfect, if he be as his master.

⁴¹And why seest thou the mote in thy brother’s eye: but the beam that is in thy own eye thou considerest not?

⁴²Or how canst thou say to thy brother: Brother, let me pull the mote out of thy eye, when thou thyself seest not the beam in thy own eye? Hypocrite, cast first the beam out of thy own eye: and then shalt thou see clearly to take out the mote from thy brother’s eye.

⁴³For there is no good tree that bringeth forth evil fruit: nor an evil tree that bringeth forth good fruit.

⁴⁴For every tree is known by its fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns: nor from a bramble bush do they gather the grape.

⁴⁵A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
