34. And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what kind of shvakh to you is that? Even chote'im lend to chote'im, that they receive in return the same amount.
35. But show ahavah to your oyvim and do mitzvahs and Gemilut Chasadim, expecting nothing in return. And your sachar will be rav. And you will be bnei Elyon (sons of the Most High), because He is kind to anashim ra'im and those without hodayah.
36. Be anashim of rachamanut (compassion) just as also your Elohim HaAv is merciful. [TEHILLIM 103:8]
37. Judge not, lest you be judged. And do not condemn, and by no means may you be condemned. If you pardon with mechila (forgiveness), you will be pardoned with selicha (forgiveness).
38. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, having been pressed down and having been shaken, overflowing, will be put into your kheyk (lap). For by what measure you measure it will be measured in return to you. [Ps 79:12; Isa 65:6,7]
39. Now he told also a mashal to them. Surely an ivver is not able to guide an ivver, is he? Will not both fall into a pit?
40. A talmid is not above his moreh. But everyone, having been fully trained, will be like his moreh (teacher).
41. And why do you see the speck in the eye of your ach, but the log in your own eye you do not notice?
42. How are you able to say to your ach, Ach, let me remove the speck in your eye, while you yourself are not seeing the log in your own eye? Tzeva, remove first the log from your eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck from your ach [b'Moshiach].
43. For there is no etz tov producing pri rah, nor again an etz rah producing pri tov.
44. For each etz by its own pri will be known. For not from thorns do they gather figs nor from a thorn bush do they pick grapes.
45. The ish tov from the good storehouse of the lev produces tov, and the ish rah out of the evil storehouse produces rah. For from the abundance of the lev the peh (mouth) speaks.
46. And why do you call me Adoni and yet you do not do what I say?
47. Everyone coming to me and hearing my divrei Torah and putting them into practice, I will show you to whom he is likened.
48. He is likened to the man building a bais who dug and went down deep and laid a yesod upon the av sela (bedrock). And a flood having come, the river struck against that bais, and the flood was not strong enough to shake it, because its binnuy was firm.
49. Now the one having heard [Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach's divrei Torah], and not having put them into practice, is like a man having built a bais (house) upon the ground without a yesod (foundation), which the river struck against, and ofen ort (immediately) the bais collapsed, and gadol (great) was the churban of that bais.
