43. “A healthy tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a poor tree bear good fruit.
44. Every tree is known by the fruit it bears; you do not pick figs from thorn bushes or gather grapes from bramble bushes.

46. “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and yet don't do what I tell you?
47. Anyone who comes to me and listens to my words and obeys them — I will show you what he is like.
48. He is like a man who, in building his house, dug deep and laid the foundation on rock. The river overflowed and hit that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.
49. But anyone who hears my words and does not obey them is like a man who built his house without laying a foundation; when the flood hit that house it fell at once — and what a terrible crash that was!”
