Matthew 12:34 in Context — Matthew 12
32 E qualquer um que falar palavra contra o Filho do homem lhe será perdoado; mas qualquer um que falar contra o Espírito Santo, não lhe será perdoado, nem na era presente, nem na futura.
33 Ou fazei a árvore boa, e seu fruto bom; ou fazei a árvore má, e seu fruto mau; pois pelo fruto se conhece a árvore.
34 Ninhada de víboras, como podeis vós falar boas coisas, sendo maus? Pois a boca fala do que o coração tem em abundância.
35 A pessoa boa tira coisas boas do bom tesouro do coração, e a pessoa má tira coisas más do tesouro mau.
36 Eu, porém, vos digo que de toda palavra imprudente que as pessoas falarem, dela prestarão contas no dia do juízo.
