Luke 6:41

But why beholdest thou the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, while, the beam that is in thine own eye, thou dost not consider?

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

In Context

42How canst thou say to thy brother—Brother! let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye,—thyself, the beam in thine own eye, not beholding? Hypocrite! cast out, first, the beam out of thine own eye, and, then, shalt thou see clearly, to cast out, the mote that is in the eye of thy brother.
