Luke 6:43-45
Christian Standard Bible
A Tree and Its Fruit
43 “A good tree doesn’t produce bad fruit; on the other hand, a bad tree doesn’t produce good fruit.[a](A) 44 For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren’t gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush. 45 A good person produces good out of the good stored up in his heart. An evil person produces evil out of the evil stored up in his heart, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.

Luke 6:43-45
New American Standard Bible
43 (A)For there is no good tree that bears bad fruit, nor, [a]on the other hand, a bad tree that bears good fruit. 44 (B)For each tree is known by its own fruit. For people do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. 45 (C)The good person out of the good [b]treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil person out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; (D)for his mouth speaks from [c]that which fills his heart.
