^43 (A)For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, ^[a]on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit. ^44 (B)For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a bramble bush. ^45 (C)The good man out of the good ^[b]treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil. ^(D)For his mouth speaks from the abundance of his heart.
