Luke 6:42 in Context — Luke 6

40 O discípulo não está acima do seu mestre; mas todo aquele que estiver completamente capacitado será como o seu mestre.

41 E por que tu prestas atenção no cisco que está no olho do teu irmão, e não enxergas a trave que está no teu próprio olho?

42 Ou como podes dizer a teu irmão: “Irmão, deixa-me tirar o cisco que está no teu olho”, se tu mesmo não prestas atenção na trave que está no teu olho? Hipócrita, tira primeiro a trave de teu olho, e então verás bem para tirar o cisco que está no olho do teu irmão.

43 Pois não há boa árvore que dê mau fruto, nem árvore má que dê bom fruto.

44 Porque cada árvore se conhece pelo seu próprio fruto; pois não se colhem figos dos espinheiros, nem se tiram uvas dos cardos.
