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.

Oder wie kannst du sagen zu deinem Bruder: Halt stille, Bruder, ich will den Splitter aus deinem Auge ziehen, und du siehst selbst nicht den Balken in deinem Auge? Du Heuchler, zieh zuvor den Balken aus deinem Auge und siehe dann zu, daß du den Splitter aus deines Bruders Auge ziehest!
¿O cómo puedes decir a tu hermano: Hermano, deja, echaré fuera la paja que está en tu ojo, no mirando tú la viga, que está en tu ojo? Hipócrita, echa primero fuera de tu ojo la viga, y entonces verás bien para sacar la paja que está en el ojo de tu hermano.
Ou comment peux-tu dire à ton frère: Frère, laisse-moi ôter la paille qui est dans ton oeil, toi qui ne vois pas la poutre qui est dans le tien? Hypocrite, ôte premièrement la poutre de ton oeil, et alors tu verras comment ôter la paille qui est dans l'oeil de ton frère.
Ovvero, come puoi dire al tuo fratello: Fratello, lascia che io ti tragga il fuscello ch’è nell’occhio tuo; non veggendo tu stesso la trave ch’è nell’occhio tuo proprio? Ipocrita, trai prima dell’occhio tuo la trave, ed allora ci vedrai bene per trarre il fuscello, ch’è nell’occhio del tuo fratello.
Ou como podes dizer a teu irmão: Irmão, deixa-me tirar o argueiro que está no teu olho, não atentando tu mesmo na trave que está no teu olho? Hipócrita, tira primeiro a trave do teu olho, e então verás bem para tirar o argueiro que está no olho de teu irmão.
你不見自己眼中有梁木,怎能對你弟兄說:『讓我去掉你眼中的刺』呢?你這假冒為善的人!先去掉自己眼中的梁木,然後才能看得清楚,好去掉你弟兄眼中的刺。」
