Happy, ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Happy, ye that weep now, for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye when men hate you, and when they exclude you, and revile and cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of man.

30 Give to every one that asketh of thee; and from him that taketh away thy goods, demand them not again.
To every one asking thee, give, and, from him that taketh away thy possessions, ask them not back.

And, according as ye desire that men be doing unto you, be ye doing unto them, in like manner.

36 Be merciful, as your Father is merciful.
Become ye compassionate, according as, your Father, is, compassionate;
37 And judge not, and ye will not be judged; and condemn not, and ye will not be condemned; forgive, and ye will be forgiven;
And do not judge, and in nowise shall ye be judged; and do not condemn, and in nowise shall ye be condemned; release, and ye shall be released;

But why beholdest thou the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, while, the beam that is in thine own eye, thou dost not consider?
42 How canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me take out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself perceivest not the beam in thine own eye? Hypocrite! first cast the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to take out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
How canst thou say to thy brother—Brother! let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, —thyself, the beam in thine own eye, not beholding? Hypocrite! cast out, first, the beam out of thine own eye, and, then, shalt thou see clearly, to cast out, the mote that is in the eye of thy brother.
43 For there is no good tree that beareth bad fruit; and again, there is no bad tree that beareth good fruit.
For a good tree doth not produce worthless fruit, neither again doth, a worthless tree, produce good fruit.
44 For every tree is known by its own fruit; for from thorns men do not gather figs, nor from a bramble-bush do they gather grapes.
For, every tree, by its own fruit, becometh known. For not, of thorns, do they gather figs, neither, of a bramble-bush, do they gather, a bunch of grapes.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil; for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaketh.
The good man, out of the good treasure of the heart, bringeth forth that which is good; and, the wicked man, out of the wicked heart, bringeth forth that which is wicked; for, out of an overflowing of heart, speaketh, his mouth.
46 But why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
And why call ye me, Lord! Lord! and not do the things that I say?
47 Every one that cometh to me and heareth my sayings and doeth them, I will show you whom he is like.
Every one coming unto me, and hearkening unto my words, and doing them, I will suggest to you, whom he is like:
48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep, and laid its foundation on a rock; and when a flood arose, the stream dashed against that house, and could not shake it; because it was well built.
He is like unto a man building a house, who digged, and deepened, and laid a foundation upon the rock, —and, a flood, coming, the stream burst against that house, and was not strong enough to shake it, because it had been, well, built.
49 But he that heareth and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream dashed, and it fell at once, and the ruin of that house was great.
But, he that hath heard and not done, is like unto a man having built a house upon the earth, without a foundation, —against which the stream burst, and, straightway, it fell in; and it came to pass, that, the crash of that house, was, great.
