Context would be nice. This means nothing to me without.
It's from the Bible. The Gospel of Matthew.
The section it is taken from is called the Sermon on the Mount. Which is a collection of saying and teaching attributed to Jesus.
The context is - Jesus is giving a sermon. He says, "Do not give that which is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, for they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." - That's it. That's the entire context.
Before that is a random unrelated saying or teaching attributed to Jesus. And after it is another random unrelated saying or teaching that's attributed to Jesus.
