< Matthew 7 >

1 “Do not judge, so that you will not be judged.
Iudge not that ye be not iudged.
2 For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
For as ye iudge so shall ye be iudged. And wt what mesure ye mete wt the same shall it be mesured to you agayne.
3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the beam that is in your own eye?
Why seist thou a moote in thy brothers eye and perceavest not the beame yt ys yn thyne awne eye.
4 Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ and behold, the beam is in your own eye?
Or why sayest thou to thy brother: suffre me to plucke oute the moote oute of thyne eye and behold a beame is in thyne awne eye.
5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.
Ypocryte fyrst cast oute the beame oute of thyne awne eye and then shalte thou se clearly to plucke oute the moote out of thy brothers eye.
6 “Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
Geve not that which is holy to dogges nether cast ye youre pearles before swyne lest they treade them vnder their fete and ye other tourne agayne and all to rent you.
7 “Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
Axe and it shalbe geven you. Seke and ye shall fynd. knocke and it shalbe opened vnto you.
8 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
For whosoever axeth receaveth and he yt seketh fyndeth and to hym that knocketh it shalbe opened.
9 Or who is there among you who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?
Ys there eny man amoge you which if his sonne axed hym bread wolde offer him astone?
10 Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
Or if he axed fysshe wolde he proffer hym a serpet?
11 If you then, being 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!
Yf ye then which are evyll cane geve to youre chyldren good gyftes: how moche moore shall youre father which is in heve geve good thynges to them yt axe hym?
12 Therefore, whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
Therfore whatsoever ye wolde that men shulde do to you even so do ye to them. This ys the lawe and the Prophettes.
13 “Enter in by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in by it.
Enter in at the strayte gate: for wyde is ye gate and broade is the waye that leadeth to destruccion: and many ther be which goo yn therat.
14 How narrow is the gate and the way is restricted that leads to life! There are few who find it.
But strayte is the gate and narowe ys the waye which leadeth vnto lyfe: and feawe there be that fynde it.
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
Beware of false Prophetes which come to you in shepes clothinge but inwardly they are ravenynge wolves.
16 By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?
Ye shall knowe them by their frutes. Do men gaddre grapes of thornes? or figges of bryres?
17 Even so, every good tree produces good fruit, but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
Euen soo every good tree bryngeth forthe good frute. But a corrupte tree bryngethe forthe evyll frute.
18 A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
A good tree canot brynge forthe bad frute: nor yet a bad tree can bringe forthe good frute.
19 Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
Every tree that bryngethe not forthe good frute shalbe hewe doune and cast into the fyre.
20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
Wherfore by their frutes ye shall knowe the.
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
Not all they that saye vnto me Master Master shall enter in to the kyngdome of heven: but he that dothe my fathers will which ys in heven.
22 Many will tell me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did not we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?’
Many will saye to me in that daye Master master have we not in thy name prophesied? And in thy name have caste oute devyls? And in thy name have done many miracles?
23 Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.’
And then will I knowlege vnto them that I never knewe them. Departe from me ye workers of iniquite.
24 “Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock.
Whosoever heareth of me these sayinges and doethe the same I wyll lyken hym vnto a wyse man which bylt hys housse on a rocke:
25 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
and aboundance of rayne descended and the fluddes came and the wyndes blewe and bet vpon that same housse and it fell not because it was grounded on the rocke.
26 Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.
And whosoever heareth of me these sayinges and doth the not shalbe lykened vnto a folysh man which bilt hys housse apo the sondes:
27 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell—and its fall was great.”
and abundauce of rayne descended and the fluddes came and ye wyndes blewe and beet vpon that housse and it fell and great was the fall of it.
28 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,
And it came to passe that when Iesus had ended these saynges the people were astonnyed at hys doctryne.
29 for he taught them with authority, and not like the scribes.
For he taught them as one havynge power and not as the Scribes.
