39And He also spoke a parable to them: “aA blind man cannot guide a blind man, can he? Will they not both fall into a pit?

40“aA 1pupil is not above his teacher; but everyone, after he has been fully trained, will 2be like his teacher.

41“Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?

42“Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother’s eye.

43“aFor there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, 1on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit.

44“aFor each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush.

45“aThe good man out of the good 1treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; bfor his mouth speaks from 2that which fills his heart.
