The Sermon On The Plain: Trees And Their Fruit
42 Or how Canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, suffer that I cast out the mote in thine eye, thyself not beholding the beam in thine eye? O hypocrite, cast out first the beam from thine own eye, and then shalt thou see through to cast out the mote in thy brother's eye. 43 For it is not a good tree making decayed fruit; neither a decayed tree making good fruit. 44 For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns they gather not figs, nor of the bramble do they harvest the grape.
