*Note: In Matt this aphorism ends a parable; in Luke an aphoristic cluster.
The fragment in the gospel of Thomas is in the middle of an aphoristic cluster.

To facilitate comparison of texts I have retro-translated the Thomas' saying from Coptic to Greek using Michael Grondin's literal interlinear translation of GThomas
(see line 33:09/027 on p. 2 of the page-by-page .PDF file).
