Matthew 7:24-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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,

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.

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,

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.
