Luke 6:43-45

Modern English Version

A Tree and Its Fruit^(A)

⁴³ “A good tree does not bear corrupt fruit, nor does a corrupt tree bear good fruit. ⁴⁴ Each tree is known by its own fruit. Men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a wild bush. ⁴⁵ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bears what is good, and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bears what is evil. For of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
