Nolite judicare, ut non iudicemini
The Bible advises: "Nolite iudicare, ut non iudicemini" or in English "Judge not, that ye be not judged." (Matthew Chap7, verse 1)
Here ut is used in the sense of "so that" or "in order that", hence the verb in its clause is in the subjunctive.
nolite 2nd person plural imperative of nolo
iudicare infinitive to judge
iudicemini 2nd person plural present passive subjunctive you may be judged
