Luke 6:39-45

Parables of Discipleship and Integrity

39
And he spake a simile to them, `Is blind able to lead blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?
40
A disciple is not above his teacher, but every one perfected shall be as his teacher.
41
`And why dost thou behold the mote that is in thy brother's eye, and the beam that is in thine own eye dost not consider?
42
or how art thou able to say to thy brother, Brother, suffer, I may take out the mote that is in thine eye--thyself the beam in thine own eye not beholding? Hypocrite, take first the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou shalt see clearly to take out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
43
`For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;
44
for each tree from its own fruit is known, for not from thorns do they gather figs, nor from a bramble do they crop a grape.
45
`The good man out of the good treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which is evil; for out of the abounding of the heart doth his mouth speak.
