1599 Geneva Bible
14 Because [a]the gate is strait, and the way narrow that leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 ¶ [b]Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. (A)Do men gather grapes of thorns? or figs of thistles?
