can see clearly to remove the speck of chaff that is in
your brother's eye.
006:043 For there is no good tree that brings forth rotten fruit;
nor again a rotten tree that brings forth good fruit.
006:044 For each tree is known by its own fruit. For people don't
gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from
a bramble bush.
006:045 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings
out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil
treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil,
for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.
006:046 "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and don't do the things
which I say?
006:047 Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words, and does them,
I will show you who he is like.
006:048 He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep,
and laid a foundation on the rock. When a flood arose,
the stream broke against that house, and could not shake it,
because it was founded on the rock.
006:049 But he who hears, and doesn't do, is like a man who built a house
on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream broke,
and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great."
007:001 After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people,
he entered into Capernaum.
007:002 A certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick

007:003 When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews,
asking him to come and save his servant.
007:004 When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying,
"He is worthy for you to do this for him,
007:005 for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us."

but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
007:008 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under
myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go!' and he goes;
and to another, 'Come!' and he comes; and to my servant,
'Do this,' and he does it."
007:009 When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned
and said to the multitude who followed him, "I tell you,
I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel."
007:010 Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant
who had been sick was well.
007:011 It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain.
Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude,
