Either say that the tree is good, and its fruit good; or say that the tree is bad, and its fruit bad; for the tree is known by its fruit. Brood of vipers!

So every good tree beareth good fruit; but a bad tree beareth bad fruit.

A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor call a bad tree bear good fruit.

For there is no good tree that beareth bad fruit; and again, there is no bad tree that beareth good fruit.

Between the street of the city and the river, on one side and on the other, is the tree of life, hearing twelve kinds of fruit, and yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.

And already is the axe lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that beareth not good fruit is to be cut down, and cast into the fire.

Every tree that beareth not good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

And already also is the axe lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that beareth not good fruit is to be cut down, and cast into the fire.

For every tree is known by its own fruit; for from thorns men do not gather figs, nor from a bramblebush do they gather grapes.
