7 “Don’t judge others so that you won’t be judged yourselves, 2 [ref]because you’ll all be judged in the same way that you judge others. Whatever standard you use on others will be the same standard used on you. 3 And why are you looking at the speck in the eye of another person when you have a massive lump in your own eye? 4 How could you say to them, ‘Let me get the speck out of your eye,’ when the lump is still in your eye? 5 What a hypocrite! First get the lump out of your own eye and you’ll be able to see clearly so then you can help them with their eye.

6 “Don’t give special things to dogs and don’t pitch pearls to pigs, because they’ll all just trample them underfoot and then they’re just as likely to turn and attack you.

37 “Don’t judge others, then you definitely won’t be judged. Don’t condemn others, then you definitely won’t be condemned. 38 Give to others, and then you’ll be given to generously. The returned amount will be really packed in to the container and even overflowing, because however you measure things out for others, that’s how things will be measured out for you.”

39 [ref]Then Yeshua told them a parable: “Surely a blind person can’t be a guide for someone else who’s blind. Won’t both of them fall into a ditch? 40 [ref]A trainee isn’t above their teacher, but can become like their teacher once they’re fully trained.

41 “How come you notice the speck in someone else’s eye, yet don’t even notice the log that’s in your own eye? 42 How can you tell that person, ‘Hey, let me get that speck out of your eye,’ when you can’t even see the log in your eye? You hypocrite, get the log out of your eye and then you’ll be able to see clearly so you can remove the speck in the other person’s eye.
