Matthew 7:6 in Context — Matthew 7
4 O ¿cómo dirás á tu hermano: Espera, echaré de tu ojo la mota, y he aquí la viga en tu ojo?
5 ¡Hipócrita! echa primero la viga de tu ojo, y entonces mirarás en echar la mota del ojo de tu hermano.
6 No deis lo santo á los perros, ni echéis vuestras perlas delante de los puercos; porque no las rehuellen con sus pies, y vuelvan y os despedacen.
7 Pedid, y se os dará; buscad, y hallaréis; llamad, y se os abrirá.
8 Porque cualquiera que pide, recibe; y el que busca, halla; y al que llama, se abrirá.
