³ `Why do you look at the spot of dust in your brother's eye? But you do not see a big stick in your own eye!

⁴ Why do you say to your brother, "Let me take the dust out of your eye"? And all the time you have that stick in your own eye!

⁵ You are not true to yourselves! First take the stick out of your own eye. Then you will be able to see to take the dust out of your brother's eye.

⁶ `Do not give what is holy to dogs. Do not throw your fine stones to pigs. They will walk all over them, and then turn and hurt you.'

⁷ `Ask, and you will get what you ask for. Look, and you will find what you look for. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.

⁸ Everyone who asks will get. The one who looks will find. And the one who knocks will have the door opened for him.

⁹ `If your son asks for bread, will any of you give him a stone?

¹⁰ Or if he asks for a fish, will you give him a snake?

¹² `Do to other people what you want them to do to you. That is what the law and the writings of the prophets say.'
