Matthew 12:33-35

Living Bible

³³ “A tree is identified by its fruit. A tree from a select variety produces good fruit; poor varieties don’t. ³⁴ You brood of snakes! How could evil men like you speak what is good and right? For a man’s heart determines his speech. ³⁵ A good man’s speech reveals the rich treasures within him. An evil-hearted man is filled with venom, and his speech reveals it.
