Luke 6:45

The Sermon On The Plain: Trees And Their Fruit

⁴⁴ For every tree is judged by its fruit. Men do not get figs from thorns, or grapes from blackberry plants. ⁴⁵ The good man, out of the good store of his heart, gives good things; and the evil man, out of his evil store, gives evil: for out of the full store of the heart come the words of the mouth. ⁴⁶ Why do you say to me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
