Setzt entweder einen guten Baum, so wird die Frucht gut; oder setzt einen faulen Baum, so wird die Frucht faul. Denn an der Frucht erkennt man den Baum.
O haced el árbol bueno, y su fruto bueno, o haced el árbol corrompido, y su fruto dañado; porque por el fruto es conocido el árbol.
O hagan que el árbol sea bueno y su fruto bueno, o hagan que el árbol sea malo y su fruto malo, porque por el fruto se conoce el árbol.
Ou dites que l'arbre est bon et que son fruit est bon, ou dites que l'arbre est mauvais et que son fruit est mauvais; car on connaît l'arbre par le fruit.
FATE l’albero buono, e il suo frutto sarà buono; o fate l’albero malvagio, e il suo frutto sarà malvagio; poichè dal frutto si conosce l’albero.
Ou fazei a árvore boa, e o seu fruto bom, ou fazei a árvore má, e o seu fruto mau; porque pelo fruto se conhece a árvore.
「你們知道樹好,果子也好;又知道樹壞,果子也壞;因為看果子就可以知道樹。
