Berean Standard Bible
1Nolite judicare, ut non judicemini.
1“Do not judge, or you will be judged.
2In quo enim judicio judicaveritis, judicabimini: et in qua mensura mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis.
2For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3Quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui, et trabem in oculo tuo non vides?
3Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?
4aut quomodo dicis fratri tuo: Sine ejiciam festucam de oculo tuo, et ecce trabs est in oculo tuo?
4How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye?
5Hypocrita, ejice primum trabem de oculo tuo, et tunc videbis ejicere festucam de oculo fratris tui.
5You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
6Nolite dare sanctum canibus: neque mittatis margaritas vestras ante porcos, ne forte conculcent eas pedibus suis, et conversi dirumpant vos.
6Do not give dogs what is holy; do not throw your pearls before swine. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.
7Petite, et dabitur vobis: quærite, et invenietis: pulsate, et aperietur vobis.
7Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
8Omnis enim qui petit, accipit: et qui quærit, invenit: et pulsanti aperietur.
8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
9Aut quis est ex vobis homo, quem si petierit filius suus panem, numquid lapidem porriget ei?
9Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
10aut si piscem petierit, numquid serpentem porriget ei?
10Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?
11Si ergo vos, cum sitis mali, nostis bona data dare filiis vestris: quanto magis Pater vester, qui in cælis est, dabit bona petentibus se?
11So if you 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!
12Omnia ergo quæcumque vultis ut faciant vobis homines, et vos facite illis. Hæc est enim lex, et prophetæ.
12In everything, then, do to others as you would have them do to you. For this is the essence of the Law and the Prophets.
13Intrate per angustam portam: quia lata porta, et spatiosa via est, quæ ducit ad perditionem, et multi sunt qui intrant per eam.
13Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
14Quam angusta porta, et arcta via est, quæ ducit ad vitam: et pauci sunt qui inveniunt eam !
14But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.
15Attendite a falsis prophetis, qui veniunt ad vos in vestimentis ovium, intrinsecus autem sunt lupi rapaces:
15Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
16a fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos. Numquid colligunt de spinis uvas, aut de tribulis ficus?
16By their fruit you will recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17Sic omnis arbor bona fructus bonos facit: mala autem arbor malos fructus facit.
17Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
18Non potest arbor bona malos fructus facere: neque arbor mala bonos fructus facere.
18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.
19Omnis arbor, quæ non facit fructum bonum, excidetur, et in ignem mittetur.
19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20Igitur ex fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos.
20So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.
21Non omnis qui dicit mihi, Domine, Domine, intrabit in regnum cælorum: sed qui facit voluntatem Patris mei, qui in cælis est, ipse intrabit in regnum cælorum.
21Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22Multi dicent mihi in illa die: Domine, Domine, nonne in nomine tuo prophetavimus, et in nomine tuo dæmonia ejecimus, et in nomine tuo virtutes multas fecimus?
22Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’
23Et tunc confitebor illis: Quia numquam novi vos: discedite a me, qui operamini iniquitatem.
23Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’
24Omnis ergo qui audit verba mea hæc, et facit ea, assimilabitur viro sapienti, qui ædificavit domum suam supra petram,
24Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25et descendit pluvia, et venerunt flumina, et flaverunt venti, et irruerunt in domum illam, et non cecidit: fundata enim erat super petram.
25The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock.
26Et omnis qui audit verba mea hæc, et non facit ea, similis erit viro stulto, qui ædificavit domum suam super arenam:
26But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
27et descendit pluvia, et venerunt flumina, et flaverunt venti, et irruerunt in domum illam, et cecidit, et fuit ruina illius magna.
27The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its collapse!”
28Et factum est: cum consummasset Jesus verba hæc, admirabantur turbæ super doctrina ejus.
28When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at His teaching,
29Erat enim docens eos sicut potestatem habens, et non sicut scribæ eorum, et pharisæi.
29because He taught as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.
