¹ Judge not, that ye may not be judged;

² for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.

³ But why lookest thou on the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, but observest not the beam that is in thine eye?

⁴ Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Allow [me], I will cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine eye?

⁵ Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of the eye of thy brother.

⁶ Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and turning round rend you.

⁷ Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and ye shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.

⁸ For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.

⁹ Or what man is there of you who, if his son shall ask of him a loaf of bread, will give him a stone;

¹⁰ and if he ask a fish, will give him a serpent?

¹¹ If therefore *ye*, being wicked, know [how] to give good gifts to your children, how much rather shall your Father who is in the heavens give good things to them that ask of him?

¹² Therefore all things whatever ye desire that men should do to you, thus do *ye* also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.

¹³ Enter in through the narrow gate, for wide the gate and broad the way that leads to destruction, and many are they who Enter in through it.

¹⁴ For narrow the gate and straitened the way that leads to life, and they are few who find it.

¹⁵ But beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but within are ravening wolves.

¹⁶ By their fruits ye shall know them. Do [men] gather a bunch of grapes from thorns, or from thistles figs?

¹⁷ So every good tree produces good fruits, but the worthless tree produces bad fruits.

¹⁸ A good tree cannot produce bad fruits, nor a worthless tree produce good fruits.

¹⁹ Every tree not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

²⁰ By their fruits then surely ye shall know them.

²¹ Not every one who says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he that does the will of my Father who is in the heavens.

²² Many shall say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied through *thy* name, and through *thy* name cast out demons, and through *thy* name done many works of power?

²³ and then will I avow unto them, I never knew you. Depart from me, workers of lawlessness.

²⁴ Whoever therefore hears these my words and does them, I will liken him to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock;

²⁵ and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and fell upon that house, and it did not fall, for it had been founded upon the rock.

²⁶ And every one who hears these my words and does not do them, he shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;

²⁷ and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, and it fell, and its fall was great.

²⁸ And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the crowds were astonished at his doctrine,

²⁹ for he taught them as having authority, and not as their scribes.

¹ And God remembered Noah, and all the animals, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.

² And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the pour of rain from heaven was stopped.

³ And the waters retired from the earth, continually retiring; and in the course of a hundred and fifty days the waters abated.

⁴ And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

⁵ And the waters abated continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

⁶ And it came to pass at the end of forty days that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.

⁷ And he sent out the raven, which went forth going to and fro, until the waters were dried from the earth.

⁸ And he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had become low on the ground.

⁹ But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and returned to him into the ark; for the waters were on the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ark.

¹⁰ And he waited yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.

¹¹ And the dove came to him at eventide; and behold, in her beak was an olive-leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters had become low on the earth.

¹² And he waited yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned no more to him.

¹³ And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried.

¹⁴ And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

¹⁵ And God spoke to Noah, saying,

¹⁶ Go out of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.

¹⁷ Bring forth with thee every animal which is with thee, of all flesh, fowl as well as cattle, and all the creeping things which creep on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and may be fruitful and multiply on the earth.

¹⁸ And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.

¹⁹ All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl -- everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.

²⁰ And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.

²¹ And Jehovah smelled the sweet odour. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will no more henceforth curse the ground on account of Man, for the thought of Man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will no more smite every living thing, as I have done.

²² Henceforth, all the days of the earth, seed [time] and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
