People Know You by Your Actions^(A)

¹⁵ “·Be careful of [Beware of; Watch out for] false prophets. They come to you ·looking gentle like sheep [disguised like sheep; ^Lin sheep’s clothing], but ·they are really dangerous like wolves [^Lunderneath/inwardly they are ravenous/vicious/ferocious wolves]. ¹⁶ You will know these people by ·what they do [^Ltheir fruit]. ·Grapes don’t come [^LCan you pick grapes…?] from thornbushes, ·and figs don’t come from [^Land figs from…?] ·thorny weeds [thistles]. ¹⁷ In the same way, every ·good [healthy; sound] tree produces good fruit, but a ·bad [rotten; diseased] tree produces bad fruit. ¹⁸ A ·good [healthy; sound] tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a ·bad [rotten; diseased] tree cannot produce good fruit. ¹⁹ Every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. ²⁰ In the same way, you will know ·these false prophets [^Lthem] by ·what they do [^Ltheir fruit].
