Do
not judge, and you will not be
judged. Do not condemn, and you
will not be condemned.
(Luke 6:37)
For
in the same way you judge
others, you will be judged, and
with the measure you use, it
will be measured to you.
(Matthew 7:2)
Why
do you look at the speck of
sawdust in your brother's eye
and pay no attention to the
plank in your own eye? 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?
(Matthew 7:3-4)
You
hypocrite, first take the plank
out of your own eye, and then
you will see clearly to remove
the speck from your brother's
eye.
(Matthew 7:5)
For
at whatever point you judge the
other, you are condemning
yourself, because you who pass
judgment do the same things. (Romans
2:1)

who speaks against his brother
or judges him speaks against the
law and judges it. When you
judge the law, you are not
keeping it, but sitting judgment
on it. (James 4:11)
There
is only one Lawgiver and Judge,
the one who is able to save and
destroy. But you -- who are you
to judge your neighbor? (James
4:12)
So
when you, a mere man, pass
judgment on them and yet do the
same things, do you think you
will escape God's judgment?
(Romans 2:3)
You
judge by human standards; I pass
judgment on no one. But if I do
judge, my decisions are right,
because I am not alone. I stand
with the Father, who sent me.
(John 8:15-16)
And
will not God bring about justice
for his chosen ones, who cry out
to him day and night? Will he
keep putting them off? I tell
you, he will see that they get
justice, and quickly. (Luke
18:7-8)
You,
then, why do you judge your
brother? Or why do you look down
on your brother? For we will all
stand before God's judgment
seat. (Romans 14:10)
Each
of us will give an account of
himself to God. Therefore let us
stop passing judgment on one
another. (Romans 14:12-13)
Accept
him whose faith is weak, without
passing judgment on disputable
matters. (Romans 14:1)
The
spiritual man makes judgments
about all things, but he himself
is not subject to any man's
judgment. (1 Corinthians 2:15)
I
do not even judge myself. My
conscience is clear, but that
does not make me innocent. (I
Corinthians 4:3-4)
It
is the Lord who judges me.
Therefore judge nothing before
the appointed time; wait till
the Lord comes. (1 Corinthians
4:4-5)
