3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but ^gdo not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.

6 ^h“Do not give ⁱdogs what is holy, and do not throw your ^jpearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.
