Matthew 7:1-5

Judging Others

1 1"Judge not, that you be not judged.
2 2For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and 3with the measure you use it will be measured to you.
3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but 4do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye?
5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
