/ (［（漢）一年之計、莫如樹穀。十年之計、莫如樹木。終身之計、莫如樹人。］)

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?]](https://www.ok312.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/sculpture-3408348_640-100x66.jpg)
