MLV(i)
21 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he who is practicing the will of my Father, the one in the heavens.
22 Many will be saying to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not: prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and practice many miracles in your name?
23 And then I will confess to them, I never knew you. Depart from me, you who are working lawlessness.
24 Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and practices them, he will be similar to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock; 25 and the rain came down and the rivers came up and the winds blew and fell down upon that house, and it did not fall; for it had been founded upon the rock. 26 And everyone hearing these words of mine and who is not doing them, will be similar to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand; 27 and the rain came down and the rivers came up and the winds blew and hit that house and it fell and great was its fall.
