Verse 42

Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the speck that is in your eye, when you yourself do not see the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to pull out the speck that is in your brother's eye.
