Luke 6:46-49

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Don’t Just Call Me Lord. Be a Doer of My Words

⁴⁶ “And why are you calling Me ‘Lord, Lord^[a]’, and you are not doing the things which I say? ⁴⁷ Everyone coming to Me and hearing My words and doing them— I will show you to whom he is like. ⁴⁸ He is like a man building a house who dug, and went down deep, and laid a foundation on the bed-rock. And a flood^[b] having come about, the river broke-against^[c] that house. And it was not strong-enough to shake it, because it had been built well. ⁴⁹ But the one having heard and not having done My words is like a man having built a house on the ground without a foundation, which the river broke-against. And immediately it collapsed, and the breakage of that house became great”.
