You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

15 ^a“Beware of false prophets, ^bwho come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.

16 ^aYou will know them by their fruits. ^bDo men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?

17 Even so, ^aevery good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.
