44 For aevery tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.
45 aA good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil1 treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out bof the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Build on the Rock
46 a“But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?
47 aWhoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like:
48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was1 founded on the rock.
49 But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it1 fell. And the ruin of that house was great.”
