Matthew 7:6
“Don't give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.”
Verse in context — Matthew 7
4
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye?
5
You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
6
Don't give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
7
Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
