Matthew 7:1-6

Evangelical Heritage Version

Consider the Beam in Your Own Eye

7 “Stop judging, so that you will not be judged. ² For with whatever standard you judge, you will be judged, and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you. ³ Why do you focus on^[a] the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the beam that is in your own eye? ⁴ How will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ when, in fact, you have a beam in your own eye? ⁵ Hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

Do Not Throw Your Pearls to Pigs

⁶ “Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.
