Luke 6:41An Understandable Version (2005 edition)And why do you look for the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye but ignore the board in your own eye? See the chapter |
Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take that speck of sawdust out of your eye,’ when you cannot see the board in your own eye? You hypocrite, take the board out of your own eye first; then you will be able to see clearly enough to take out the speck of sawdust that is in your brother’s eye.
So, whoever you are, you people do not have any excuse for judging people [Note: At this point Paul begins addressing the Jews. See verse 17]. For in a matter where you judge someone else [to be wrong] you [actually] condemn yourselves, because you are practicing the same things [you condemn them for doing].
