Luke 6:43-45
New Matthew Bible
43 It is not a good tree that brings forth bad fruit, nor is that a bad tree that brings forth good fruit. 44 For every tree is known by its fruit. Neither is it from thorns that men gather figs, nor from bushes that they gather grapes. 45 A good man, out of the good treasure of his heart, brings forth that which is good. And an evil man, out of the evil treasure of his heart, brings forth that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

Luke 6:43-45
Authorized (King James) Version
43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A 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 of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
