And why call ye me, Lord! Lord! and not do the things that I say?

Every one coming unto me, and hearkening unto my words, and doing them, I will suggest to you, whom he is like:

He is like unto a man building a house, who digged, and deepened, and laid a foundation upon the rock, - and, a flood, coming, the stream burst against that house, and was not strong enough to shake it, because it had been, well, built.

But, he that hath heard and not done, is like unto a man having built a house upon the earth, without a foundation, - against which the stream burst, and, straightway, it fell in; and it came to pass, that, the crash of that house, was, great.
