Judging Others
7 (A)“Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 (B)For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and (C)with the measure you use it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but (D)do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

Romans 14:10-16
English Standard Version
10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For (A)we will all stand before (B)the judgment seat of God; 11 for it is written,
(C)“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess[a] to God.”
12 So then (D)each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Do Not Cause Another to Stumble
13 (E)Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide (F)never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother. 14 I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus (G)that nothing is unclean in itself, (H)but it is unclean for anyone who thinks it unclean. 15 For if your brother is grieved by what you eat, (I)you are no longer walking in love. (J)By what you eat, do not destroy the one for whom Christ died. 16 (K)So do not let what you regard as good be spoken of as evil.

(F)Then each one will receive his commendation from God.
