How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?

Ask, Seek, Knock(A)

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
