Matthew 7:6 in Context — Matthew 7
4 Ou como dirás a teu irmão: “Deixa-me tirar o cisco do teu olho”, se eis que há uma trave em teu próprio olho?
5 Hipócrita! Tira primeiro a trave do teu olho, e então verás claramente para tirar o cisco do olho de teu irmão.
6 Não deis o que é santo aos cães, nem lanceis vossas pérolas diante dos porcos, para não acontecer de as pisarem com os pés e, virando-se, vos despedacem.
7 Pedi, e vos será dado; buscai, e achareis; batei, e vos será aberto;
8 Pois qualquer um que pede recebe; e quem busca acha; e ao que bate lhe é aberto.
