Exegesis
In the first half, krinete {κρίνετε | krínete} and krithēsesthe {κριθήσεσθε | krithḗsesthe} form a deliberate active-passive contrast, so the judgment exercised by the audience becomes the judgment they receive.
In context — Matthew 7:2
The ruling you give will come back to you, and the measure you use will be measured back to you.
