Matthew 7 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Judging Others

(Luk 6:37–42 )

“Do not [fn]judge^G2919, so^G2443 that^G2443 you will not be judged^G2919.

Mat 7:2“For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and [fn]by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.

Mat 7:3“Why do you look at the [fn]speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?

Mat 7:4

Mat 7:4“Or how [fn]can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the [fn]speck out of your eye,’ and look, the log is in your own eye?

Mat 7:5

Mat 7:5“You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the [fn]speck out of your brother’s eye!

Mat 7:6

“Do not give^G1325 what^G3588 is holy^G40 to dogs^G2965, and do not throw^G906 your pearls^G3135 before^G1715 pigs^G5519, or^G3379 they will trample^G2662 them under^G2662 their feet^G4228, and turn^G4762 and tear^G4486 you to^G4486 pieces^G4486.

Prayer and the Golden Rule

(Luk 11:9–13 )

Mat 7:7

“[fn]Ask^G154, and it will be given^G1325 to you; [fn]seek^G2212, and you will find^G2147; [fn]knock^G2925, and it will be opened^G455 to you.

Mat 7:8

Mat 7:8“For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.

Mat 7:9

Mat 7:9“Or what person is there among you [fn]who, when his son asks for a loaf of bread, [fn]will give him a stone?

Mat 7:10

Mat 7:10“Or [fn]if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?

Mat 7:11

Mat 7:11“So if you, despite being [fn]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!

Mat 7:12

“In everything^G3956, therefore^G3767, [fn]treat^G4160 people^G846 the same^G3779 way^G3779 you want^G2309 [fn]them^G444 to treat^G4160 you, for this^G3778 is the Law^G3551 and the Prophets^G4396.

The Narrow and Wide Gates

(Luk 13:24 )

Mat 7:13

“Enter^G1525 through^G1223 the narrow^G4728 gate^G4439; for the gate^G4439 is wide^G4116 and the way^G3598 is broad^G2149 that leads^G520 to destruction^G684, and there^G1510 are many^G4183 who enter^G1525 through^G1223 it.

Mat 7:14

Mat 7:14“For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

A Tree and Its Fruit

(Mat 12:33; Luk 6:43–45 )

Mat 7:15

“Beware^G4337 of the false^G5578 prophets^G5578, who^G3748 come^G2064 to you in sheep’s^G4263 clothing^G1742, but inwardly^G2081 are ravenous^G727 wolves^G3074.

Mat 7:16

Mat 7:16“You will [fn]know them by their fruits. [fn]Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor figs from thistles, are they?

Mat 7:17

Mat 7:17“So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.

Mat 7:18

Mat 7:18“A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.

Mat 7:19

Mat 7:19“Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

Mat 7:20

Mat 7:20“So then, you will [fn]know them by their fruits.

(Luk 6:46; 13:26, 27 )

Mat 7:21

“Not everyone^G3956 who says^G3004 to Me, ‘Lord^G2962, Lord^G2962,’ will enter^G1525 the kingdom^G932 of heaven^G3772, but the one who does^G4160 the will^G2307 of My Father^G3962 who is in heaven^G3772 will enter.

Mat 7:22

Mat 7:22“Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many [fn]miracles?’

Mat 7:23

Mat 7:23“And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; LEAVE ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.’

The Two Foundations

(Luk 6:47–49 )

Mat 7:24

“Therefore^G3767, everyone^G3956 who^G3748 hears^G191 these^G3778 words^G3056 of Mine^G1473, and [fn]acts^G4160 on them, will be like^G3666 a wise^G5429 man^G435 who^G3748 built^G3618 his house^G3614 on the rock^G4073.

Mat 7:25

Mat 7:25“And the rain fell and the [fn]floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock.

Mat 7:26

Mat 7:26“And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not [fn]act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.

Mat 7:27

Mat 7:27“And the rain fell and the [fn]floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and its collapse was great.”

Mat 7:28

[fn]When^G3753 Jesus^G2424 had finished^G5055 these^G3778 words^G3056, the crowds^G3793 were amazed^G1605 at His teaching^G1322;

Mat 7:29

Mat 7:29for He was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.
