Judging Others
7 “(A)Do not [a]judge, so that you will not be judged. 2 For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and [b](B)by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you (C)look at the [c]speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 (D)Or how [d]can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the [e]speck out of your eye,’ and look, the log is 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 [f]speck out of your brother’s eye!

New American Standard Bible
22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be answerable to (A)the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘[a]You good-for-nothing,’ shall be answerable to [b](B)the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the [c](C)fiery hell. 23 Therefore, if you are (D)presenting your [d]offering at the altar, and there you remember that your brother has something against you, 24 leave your [e]offering there before the altar and go; first be (E)reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your [f]offering. 25 (F)[g]Come to good terms with your accuser quickly, while you are with him on the way to court, so that your accuser will not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you will not be thrown into prison. 26 Truly I say to you, (G)you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last [h]quadrans.
