Matthew 7:12 in Context — Matthew 7

10 ¿Y si [le] pidiere un pez, le dará una serpiente?

11 Pues si vosotros, siendo malos, sabéis dar buenas dádivas á vuestros hijos, ¿cuánto más vuestro Padre que está en los cielos, dará buenas cosas á los que le piden?

12 Así que, todas las cosas que quisierais que los hombres hiciesen con vosotros, así también haced vosotros con ellos; porque esta es la ley y los profetas.

13 Entrad por la puerta estrecha: porque ancha es la puerta, y espacioso el camino que lleva á perdición, y muchos son los que entran por ella.

14 Porque estrecha es la puerta, y angosto el camino que lleva á la vida, y pocos son los que la hallan.
