July 17, 2023. Gospel Matt 7:15-21. Seventh Sunday after Pentecost.
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Attendite a falsis prophetis, qui veniunt ad vos in vestimentis ovium, intrinsecus autem sunt lupi rapaces :
16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
a fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos. Numquid colligunt de spinis uvas, aut de tribulis ficus?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Sic omnis arbor bona fructus bonos facit : mala autem arbor malos fructus facit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit.
Non potest arbor bona malos fructus facere : neque arbor mala bonos fructus facere.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire.
Omnis arbor, quae non facit fructum bonum, excidetur, et in ignem mittetur.
20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
Igitur ex fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos.
21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Non omnis qui dicit mihi, Domine, Domine, intrabit in regnum caelorum : sed qui facit voluntatem Patris mei, qui in caelis est, ipse intrabit in regnum caelorum.
