43 ^a“For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, 44 for each tree is known by its own fruit. ^bFor figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush.

16 You will recognize them by their fruits. ^xAre grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?

20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
