A Tree and Its Fruit
15 (A)“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are (B)ravenous wolves. 16 You will recognize them (C)by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 So, (D)every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. 18 A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. 19 (E)Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will recognize them (F)by their fruits.

坏树不能结好果子(A)
15 “提防假先知！他们披着羊皮到你们当中，里面却是残暴的狼。 16 凭着他们的果子就可以认出他们来：荆棘里怎能摘到葡萄？蒺藜里怎能摘到无花果呢？ 17 照样，好树结好果子，坏树结坏果子； 18 好树不能结坏果子，坏树也不能结好果子。 19 凡是不结好果子的树，就被砍下来，丢在火中。 20 因此你们凭着他们的果子就可以认出他们来。

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
