Luke 6:39. And He also told a Parable to them: “Is a blind person able to lead a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit? 40.

And what is the chip you see in your brother’s eye, but you do not perceive the beam in your own eye? 42.

Hypocrite, you must first take the beam out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the chip in your brother’s eye.”
