/6:47/ I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them. /48/ That one is like a man building a house, who dug deeply and laid the foundation on rock; when a flood arose, the river burst against that house but could not shake it, because it had been well built. /49/ But the one who hears and does not act is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation.

= Matt 7:24-27
/7:24/ "Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. /25/ The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock. /26/ And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. /27/ The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell--and great was its fall!"
