Old Testament

New Testament

Matthew 7:3-14 Modern English Version (MEV)

3. “And why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank that is in your own eye?

4. Or how will you say to your brother, ‘Let me pull the speck out of your eye,’ when a log is in your own eye?

5. You hypocrite! First take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.

6. “Do not give what is holy to the dogs, nor throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn around and attack you.

7. “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you.

8. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks, it will be opened.

9. “What man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?

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

11. If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

12. Therefore, everything you would like men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

13. “Enter at the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who are going through it,

14. because small is the gate and narrow is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
