Stop judging
so that you will not be judged.
For by the judgement you judge
you will be judged
and by the measure you measure
it will be measured to you.
So why
do you see
a splinter in your brother /sister’s eye
but
a log which is in your eye
you do not consider?
or how
do you say to your brother/sister
‘Let me take away the splinter from your eye,’
and, behold! the log in your eye?
Hypocrite!
First take away
from your eye, the log,
and then you will see clearly
to take away the splinter
from the eye of your brother /sister.
Do not ever give
a holy thing to the dogs,
nor throw your pearls in front of pigs,
so that they will not trample them under their feet
and having turned round, attack you!
Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that thou art –
Thou my best thought, by day or by night;
Waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.
