1 Judge not, that ye may not be judged;
2 for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.
3 But why lookest thou on the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, but observest not the beam that is in thine eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Allow {me}, I will cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine eye?
5 Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of the eye of thy brother.
6 Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and turning round rend you.
7 Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and ye shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
8 For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
9 Or what man is there of you who, if his son shall ask of him a loaf of bread, will give him a stone;
10 and if he ask a fish, will give him a serpent?
11 If therefore *ye*, being wicked, know {how} to give good gifts to your children, how much rather shall your Father who is in the heavens give good things to them that ask of him?
12 Therefore all things whatever ye desire that men should do to you, thus do *ye* also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
13 Enter in through the narrow gate, for wide the gate and broad the way that leads to destruction, and many are they who enter in through it.
14 For narrow the gate and straitened the way that leads to life, and they are few who find it.
15 But beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but within are ravening wolves.
16 By their fruits ye shall know them. Do {men} gather a bunch of grapes from thorns, or from thistles figs?
17 So every good tree produces good fruits, but the worthless tree produces bad fruits.
18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruits, nor a worthless tree produce good fruits.
19 Every tree not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
20 By their fruits then surely ye shall know them.
21 Not every one who says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he that does the will of my Father who is in the heavens.
22 Many shall say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied through *thy* name, and through *thy* name cast out demons, and through *thy* name done many works of power?
23 and then will I avow unto them, I never knew you. Depart from me, workers of lawlessness.
24 Whoever therefore hears these my words and does them, I will liken him to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock;
25 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and fell upon that house, and it did not fall, for it had been founded upon the rock.
26 And every one who hears these my words and does not do them, he shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;
27 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, and it fell, and its fall was great.
28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the crowds were astonished at his doctrine,
29 for he taught them as having authority, and not as their scribes.
1 Ärge mõistke kohut, et teie üle ei mõistetaks kohut.
2 Sest missuguse kohtuga te kohut mõistate, niisugusega mõistetakse teile kohut; ja missuguse mõõduga te mõõdate, niisugusega möödetakse ka teile.
3 Aga miks sa näed pindu oma venna silmas, kuid palki omas silmas sa ei pane tähele?
4 Või kuidas sa ütled oma vennale: Lase ma tõmban pinnu sinu silmast!? Ja vaata, palk on su omas silmas!
5 Sa silmakirjatseja! Tõmba esiti palk omast silmast, ja siis sa seletad tõmmata pindu oma venna silmast.
6 Ärge andke seda, mis on püha, koertele, ja ärge heitke oma pärle sigade ette, et nad neid ei sõtkuks oma jalgega ega käänduks ja teid ei kisuks.
7 Paluge, siis antakse teile; otsige, siis te leiate; koputage, siis avatakse teile.
8 Sest igaüks, kes palub, see saab, ja kes otsib, see leiab, ja kes koputab, sellele avatakse.
9 Või missugune inimene on teie seast, kellelt tema poeg palub leiba, ja ta annaks temale kivi?
10 Või kui ta palub kala, ja ta annaks temale mao?
11 Kui nüüd teie, kes olete kurjad, mõistate anda häid ande oma lastele, eks palju enam teie Isa taevas anna häid ande neile, kes Teda paluvad.
12 Sellepärast kõik, mida te tahate, et inimesed teile teevad, tehke ka neile; sest see on käsuõpetus ja prohvetid.
13
14 Ja kitsas on värav ja ahtake on tee, mis viib ellu, ja pisut on neid, kes selle leiavad.
15 Hoiduge valeprohveteist, kes tulevad teie juure lammaste riideis, aga seest-pidi on nad kiskjad hundid.
16 Nende viljast te tunnete nad. Ega viinamarju nopita kibuvitsust või viigimarju ohakaist?
17 Nõnda iga hea puu kannab head vilja, aga halb puu kannab halba vilja.
18 Hea puu ei või kanda halba vilja ega halb puu kanda head vilja.
19 Iga puu, mis ei kanna head vilja, raiutakse maha ja visatakse tulle.
20 Nõnda siis nende viljast te tunnete nad ära.
21 Mitte igaüks, kes Minule ütleb: Issand, Issand, ei saa Taevariiki, vaid kes teeb Mu Isa tahtmist, Kes on taevas.
22 Mitmed ütlevad Minule tol päeval: Issand, Issand, kas me ei ole Sinu nimel ennustanud ja Sinu nimel ajanud välja kurje vaime ja Sinu nimel teinud palju vägevaid tegusid?
23 Ja siis Ma tunnistan neile: Ma ei ole elades teid tunnud, taganege Minust, te ülekohtutegijad!
24 Igaüks nüüd, kes neid Mu sõnu kuuleb ja teeb nende järele, on võrreldav mõistliku mehega, kes ehitas oma koja kaljule.
25 Ja ränk sadu tuli ja tulid vetevoolud, ja tuuled puhusid ja sööstsid vastu seda koda; aga Ta ei langenud, sest Tema alus oli rajatud kaljule.
26 Ja igaüks, kes neid Minu sõnu kuuleb, aga ei tee nende järele, on võrreldav jõleda mehega, kes oma koja ehitas liivale.
27 Ja ränk sadu tuli ja tulid vetevoolud, ja tuuled puhusid ja sööstsid vastu seda koda, ja ta langes, ja tema langemine oli suur."
28 Ja sündis, kui Jeesus oli lõpetanud need kõned, et rahvahulgad hämmastusid Tema õpetusest;
29 sest Ta õpetas neid nõnda nagu see, kellel on meelevald, ja mitte nõnda nagu nende kirjatundjad.
