Matteus 7
Svenska Folkbibeln
Flisan och bjälken
7 Döm inte, så blir ni inte dömda. 2 Ty med den dom ni dömer med, skall ni bli dömda, och med det mått ni mäter med, skall det mätas upp åt er. 3 Varför ser du flisan i din broders öga men märker inte bjälken i ditt eget öga? 4 Eller hur kan du säga till din broder: Låt mig ta bort flisan ur ditt öga, du som har en bjälke i ditt eget öga? 5 Du hycklare, ta först bort bjälken ur ditt eget öga! Då kommer du att se så klart att du kan ta ut flisan ur din broders öga.
Det heliga och hundarna
6 Ge inte det heliga åt hundarna och kasta inte era pärlor för svinen. De trampar ner dem och vänder sig om och sliter sönder er.
Bed och ni skall få
7 Bed och ni skall få, sök och ni skall finna, bulta och dörren skall öppnas för er. 8 Ty var och en som ber, han får, och den som söker, han finner, och för den som bultar skall dörren öppnas. 9 Vem bland er ger sin son en sten, när han ber om bröd, 10 eller en orm, när han ber om en fisk? 11 Om ni som är onda förstår att ge era barn goda gåvor, hur mycket mer skall då inte er Fader i himlen ge det som är gott åt dem som ber honom.
Den gyllene regeln
12 Därför, allt vad ni vill att människorna skall göra er, det skall ni också göra dem. Detta är lagen och profeterna.
De två vägarna
13 Gå in genom den trånga porten. Ty den port är vid, och den väg är bred som leder till fördärvet, och det är många som går fram på den. 14 Och den port är trång, och den väg är smal som leder till livet, och det är få som finner den.
15 Akta er för de falska profeterna, som kommer till er klädda som får men i sitt inre är rovlystna vargar. 16 På deras frukt skall ni känna igen dem. Inte plockar man väl vindruvor från törnbuskar eller fikon från tistlar? 17 Så bär varje gott träd god frukt, men ett dåligt träd bär dålig frukt. 18 Ett gott träd kan inte bära dålig frukt, inte heller kan ett dåligt träd bära god frukt. 19 Ett träd som inte bär god frukt blir nerhugget och kastat i elden. 20 Alltså skall ni känna igen dem på deras frukt. 21 Inte skall var och en som säger 'Herre, Herre' till mig komma in i himmelriket, utan den som gör min himmelske Faders vilja. 22 Många skall säga till mig på den dagen: Herre, Herre, har vi inte profeterat med hjälp av ditt namn[a] och med hjälp av ditt namn drivit ut onda andar och med hjälp av ditt namn gjort många kraftgärningar? 23 Men då skall jag säga dem sanningen: Jag har aldrig känt er. Gå bort ifrån mig, ni laglösa!
Liknelsen om de två husbyggarna
24 Den som därför hör dessa mina ord och handlar efter dem, han liknar en förståndig man som byggde sitt hus på klippan. 25 Regnet öste ner, störtfloden kom och vindarna blåste och kastade sig mot det huset. Men det föll inte, eftersom det var grundat på klippan. 26 Men den som hör dessa mina ord och inte handlar efter dem, han liknar en dåre som byggde sitt hus på sanden. 27 Regnet öste ner, störtfloden kom och vindarna blåste och slog mot det huset, och det föll samman, och dess fall var stort."
28 När Jesus hade avslutat detta tal, var människorna mycket förvånade över hans undervisning, 29 ty han undervisade dem med auktoritet och inte som deras skriftlärda.

馬 太 福 音 7
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
耶稣谈评价他人
7 “不要评判人,上帝就不会评判你们。 2 因为你们用什么样的方式评判人,上帝也会用同样的方式来评判你们。你们用什么尺度衡量人,上帝也会用同样的尺度来衡量你们。
3 “为什么你只看见朋友眼里有刺,却看不见自己眼里有梁木呢? 4 既然你眼里有梁木,怎么能对你的朋友说∶‘让我来把你眼中的刺挑出来’呢? 5 你这个虚伪的人啊,还是先移去你自己眼中的梁木吧,然后,你才能看清楚,把朋友眼里的刺挑出来。
6 “不要把圣物喂狗,狗会反咬你一口;也不要把珍珠丢给猪,它们只会用蹄子践踏了珍珠。
向上帝请求你们需要的
7 “不断地请求,上帝就会赐给你们;不断地寻求,你们就会找到;不停地敲门,门就会为你们打开。 8 是的,不断请求的人就会得到;不断寻找的人就会找到;不停敲门的人,门就会为他打开。
9 “你们当中谁有儿子吗?如果他向你要面包,你会给他石头吗? 10 或者,如果他要鱼,你会给他蛇吗?绝对不会! 11 你们虽然邪恶,但是还知道如何把好东西给自己的孩子,那么,你们的天父肯定会把好东西给那些向他请求的人们了!
最重要的规则
12 “因此,在任何事情上,你们想让别人怎样对待自己,你们也应该怎样对待别人,这就是摩西律法和先知教导的含义。
天堂与地狱之路
13 “你们只有从窄门进去才能进入真正的生命,通向毁灭的门是敞开的,通向毁灭的路是宽阔的,有许多人走上了这条毁灭之路。 14 但是,通向永生的门是非常窄小和艰难的,只有极少数的人才能找到它。
人的行为表现品格
15 “要提防假先知,他们来到你们面前,看上去像绵羊,实际上却是危险的狼。 16 通过这些人的行为,你们会知道他们是什么样的人,就如荆棘丛中摘不到葡萄、蒺藜藤上结不出无花果一样。 17 同样,好树结好果,坏树结恶果。 18 好树结不出恶果;坏树也结不出好果。 19 所有不结好果的树,都要被砍倒,扔进火里烧掉。 20 同样的道理,你们可以从人的行为,看出他们的品质。
21 “不是所有呼唤我说‘主啊,主啊’的人,都能进天国。只有按照天父旨意行事的人,才能进天国。 22 在最后的日子里,许多人会呼唤我为主,说道∶‘主啊,主啊!我们曾以您的名义传道,我们曾以您的名义驱鬼。我们曾以您的名义行奇迹 [a]。’ 23 但是,我会清清楚楚地告诉他们∶‘我从来就不认识你们,走开,你们这些做恶的人。’
两种人
24 “听了我的话并付诸行动的人,就像一个深谋远虑的人,把自己的房子建在坚固的磐石上。 25 纵使雨淋、水冲、风吹击打,房子也不会倒塌,因为房基建在磐石上。 26 然而,听了我的话,却不付诸于行动的人,就像一个愚蠢的人,把房子建在沙滩上。 27 雨淋、水冲、风吹击打着房子,房子轰然倒塌了。”
28 耶稣讲完话后,人们都对他的教导非常惊讶, 29 因为他与其他的律法师不同,他像一个拥有权威的人那样传教。

Matthew 7
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
Judging Others
7 ‘Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. 2 For with the judgement you make you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3 Why do you see the speck in your neighbour’s[a] eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your neighbour,[b] “Let me take the speck out of your eye”, while 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 speck out of your neighbour’s[c] eye.
Profaning the Holy
6 ‘Do not give what is holy to dogs; and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under foot and turn and maul you.
Ask, Search, Knock
7 ‘Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for bread, will give a stone? 10 Or if the child asks for a fish, will give a snake? 11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
The Golden Rule
12 ‘In everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets.
The Narrow Gate
13 ‘Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy[d] that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. 14 For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
A Tree and Its Fruit
15 ‘Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? 17 In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will know them by their fruits.
Concerning Self-Deception
21 ‘Not everyone who says to me, “Lord, Lord”, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many deeds of power in your name?” 23 Then I will declare to them, “I never knew you; go away from me, you evildoers.”
Hearers and Doers
24 ‘Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. 25 The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock. 26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its fall!’
28 Now when Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astounded at his teaching, 29 for he taught them as one having authority, and not as their scribes.

Matthew 7
New International Version
Judging Others(A)
7 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.(B) 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.(C)
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
6 “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
Ask, Seek, Knock(D)
7 “Ask and it will be given to you;(E) seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds;(F) and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts(G) to those who ask him! 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,(H) for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.(I)
The Narrow and Wide Gates
13 “Enter through the narrow gate.(J) For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
True and False Prophets
15 “Watch out for false prophets.(K) They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.(L) 16 By their fruit you will recognize them.(M) Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?(N) 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.(O) 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.(P) 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
True and False Disciples
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’(Q) will enter the kingdom of heaven,(R) but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.(S) 22 Many will say to me on that day,(T) ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’(U) 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’(V)
The Wise and Foolish Builders(W)
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice(X) is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
28 When Jesus had finished saying these things,(Y) the crowds were amazed at his teaching,(Z) 29 because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.
