4 How he went into the house of YHWH, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
how he entered the mansion of God, and took and eat the loaves of the presence, and gave also of this bread to his attendants; though it can not be lawfully eat by any but the priests?

8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to the man, whose hand was blasted, Arise, and stand in the middle. And he arose and stood.
9 Then said Yahushua unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the Sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
Then Jesus said to them, I would ask you, What is it lawful to do on the Sabbath? Good or ill? To save, or to destroy?
10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
And, looking around on them all, he said to the man, stretch out your hand; and in doing this, his hand was rendered sound like the other.

32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
For if you love those who love you, what thanks are you entitled to, since even sinners love those who love them?
33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
And if you do good to those who do good to you, what thanks are you entitled to, since even sinners do the same?

41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
And why do you observe the mote in your brother's eyes; but perceive not the splinter in your own eye?
42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
Or how can you say to your brothers, Brother, let me take out the mote which is in your eye, not considering that there is a splinter out of your own eye; then you will see to take out the mote which is in your brother's eyes.
43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
That is not a good tree which yields bad fruit; nor is that a bad tree which yields good fruit.
44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
For every tree is known by its own fruit. Figs are not gathered off thorns; nor grapes off a bramble-bush.
45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
The good man, out of the good treasure of his heart, brings that which is good: the bad man out of the bad treasure of his heart, brings that which is bad; for it is out of the fulness of the heart that the mouth speaks.
46 And why call ye me, Rabbi, Rabbi, and do not the things which I say?
But why do you, in addressing me, cry, Master, Master, and obey not my commands!
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
Whoever comes to me and hears my precepts, and practices them, I will show you whom he resembles:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
he resembles a man who built a house, and digging deep, laid the foundation upon the rock: and when an inundation came, the torrent broke upon that house, but could not shake it; for it was founded upon rock.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
But he who hears, and does not practice, resembles a man, who, without laying a foundation, built a house upon the earth: which, when the torrent broke against it, fell, and became a great pile of ruins.
