Take heed[G4337] that ye do[G4160]not[G3361]your[G5216]alms[G1654]before[G1715]men[G444], to be seen[G4314]of[G3844]them[G846]: otherwise[G1490] ye have[G2192]no[G3756]reward[G3408]of[G3844]your[G5216]Father[G3962]which[G3588] is in[G1722]heaven[G3772].
2Therefore[G3767]when[G3752] thou doest[G4160] thine alms[G1654], do[G4537]not[G3361] sound a trumpet[G4537]before[G1715]thee[G4675], as[G5618] the hypocrites[G5273]do[G4160]in[G1722] the synagogues[G4864]and[G2532]in[G1722] the streets[G4505], that[G3704] they may have[G568]glory[G1392]of[G5259]men[G444]. Verily[G281] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], They have[G568]their[G846]reward[G3408].
3But[G1161] when thou[G4675]doest[G4160]alms[G1654], let[G1097]not[G3361]thy[G4675] left hand[G710]know[G1097]what[G5101]thy[G4675] right hand[G1188]doeth[G4160]:
4That[G3704]thine[G4675]alms[G1654] may be[G5600]in[G1722]secret[G2927]: and[G2532]thy[G4675]Father[G3962]which[G3588]seeth[G991]in[G1722]secret[G2927]himself[G846] shall reward[G591]thee[G4671]openly[G1722].
5And[G2532]when[G3752] thou prayest[G4336], thou shalt[G2071]not[G3756]be[G2071]as[G5618] the hypocrites[G5273] are: for[G3754] they love[G5368] to pray[G4336]standing[G2476]in[G1722] the synagogues[G4864]and[G2532]in[G1722] the corners[G1137] of the streets[G4113], that[G3704] they may[G302]be[G2071]seen[G5316] of men[G444]. Verily[G281] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], They have[G568]their[G846]reward[G3408].
6But[G1161]thou[G4771], when[G3752]thou[G4771]prayest[G4336], enter[G1525]into[G1519]thy[G4675]closet[G5009], and[G2532]when[G3752]thou[G4771] hast shut[G2808]thy[G4675]door[G2374], pray[G4336] to thy[G4675]Father[G3962]which[G3588] is in[G1722]secret[G2927]; and[G2532]thy[G4675]Father[G3962]which[G3588]seeth[G991]in[G1722]secret[G2927] shall reward[G591]thee[G4671]openly[G1722].
7But[G1161] when ye pray[G4336], use[G945]not[G3361] vain repetitions[G945], as[G5618] the heathen[G1482] do: for[G1063] they think[G1380]that[G3754] they shall be heard[G1522]for[G1722]their[G846] much speaking[G4180].
8Be[G3666]not[G3361]ye[G3666]therefore[G3767]like[G3666] unto them[G846]: for[G1063]your[G5216]Father[G3962]knoweth[G1492] what things[G3739]ye[G5209]have[G2192] need of[G5532], before[G4253]ye[G5209]ask[G154]him[G846].
9
After this manner[G3779]therefore[G3767]pray[G4336]ye[G5210]: Our[G2257]Father[G3962]which[G3588] art in[G1722]heaven[G3772], Hallowed be[G37]thy[G4675]name[G3686].
10Thy[G4675]kingdom[G932]come[G2064]. Thy[G4675]will[G2307] be done[G1096]in[G1909]earth[G1093], as[G2532] it is in[G1722]heaven[G3772].
11Give[G1325]us[G2254] this day[G4594]our[G2257]daily[G1967]bread[G740].
13And[G2532]lead[G1533]us[G2248]not[G3361]into[G1519]temptation[G3986], but[G235]deliver[G4506]us[G2248]from[G575]evil[G4190]: For[G3754]thine[G4675]is[G2076] the kingdom[G932], and[G2532] the power[G1411], and[G2532] the glory[G1391], for[G1519]ever[G165]. Amen[G281].
14For[G1063]if[G1437] ye forgive[G863]men[G444]their[G846]trespasses[G3900], your[G5216]heavenly[G3770]Father[G3962] will also[G2532]forgive[G863]you[G5213]:
15But[G1161]if[G3362] ye forgive[G863]not[G3362]men[G444]their[G846]trespasses[G3900], neither[G3761] will your[G5216]Father[G3962]forgive[G863]your[G5216]trespasses[G3900].
16Moreover[G1161]when[G3752] ye fast[G3522], be[G1096]not[G3361], as[G5618] the hypocrites[G5273], of a sad countenance[G4659]: for[G1063] they disfigure[G853]their[G846]faces[G4383], that[G3704] they may appear[G5316] unto men[G444] to fast[G3522]. Verily[G281] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], They have[G568]their[G846]reward[G3408].
17But[G1161]thou[G4771], when thou[G4771]fastest[G3522], anoint[G218]thine[G4675]head[G2776], and[G2532]wash[G3538]thy[G4675]face[G4383];
18That[G3704] thou appear[G5316]not[G3361] unto men[G444] to fast[G3522], but[G235] unto thy[G4675]Father[G3962]which[G3588] is in[G1722]secret[G2927]: and[G2532]thy[G4675]Father[G3962], which[G3588]seeth[G991]in[G1722]secret[G2927], shall reward[G591]thee[G4671]openly[G1722].
19Lay[G2343]not[G3361]up[G2343] for yourselves[G5213]treasures[G2344]upon[G1909]earth[G1093], where[G3699]moth[G4597]and[G2532]rust[G1035] doth corrupt[G853], and[G2532]where[G3699]thieves[G2812] break through[G1358]and[G2532]steal[G2813]:
22
The light[G3088] of the body[G4983]is[G2076] the eye[G3788]: if[G1437]therefore[G3767]thine[G4675]eye[G3788]be[G5600]single[G573], thy[G4675]whole[G3650]body[G4983] shall be[G2071] full of light[G5460].
23But[G1161]if[G1437]thine[G4675]eye[G3788]be[G5600]evil[G4190], thy[G4675]whole[G3650]body[G4983] shall be[G2071] full of darkness[G4652]. If[G1487]therefore[G3767] the light[G5457] that is[G2076]in[G1722]thee[G4671]be[G2071]darkness[G4655], how great[G4214]is[G2076] that darkness[G4655]!
24
No man[G3762]can[G1410]serve[G1398]two[G1417]masters[G2962]: for[G1063]either[G2228] he will hate[G3404] the one[G1520], and[G2532]love[G25] the other[G2087]; or else[G2228] he will hold[G472] to the one[G1520], and[G2532]despise[G2706] the other[G2087]. Ye cannot[G3756]serve[G1398]God[G2316]and[G2532]mammon[G3126].
25Therefore[G1223] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], Take no[G3361]thought[G3309]for[G3366]your[G5216]life[G5590], what[G5101] ye shall eat[G5315], or[G2532]what[G5101] ye shall drink[G4095]; nor yet for[G3366]your[G5216]body[G4983], what[G5101] ye shall put on[G1746]. Is[G2076]not[G3780] the life[G5590] more than[G4119]meat[G5160], and[G2532] the body[G4983]than[G4119]raiment?[G1742]
26Behold[G1689] the fowls[G4071] of the air[G3772]: for[G3754]they[G846]sow[G4687]not[G3756], neither[G3761] do they[G846]reap[G2325], nor[G3761]gather[G4863]into[G1519]barns[G596]; yet[G2532]your[G5216]heavenly[G3770]Father[G3962]feedeth[G5142]them[G846]. Are[G1308]ye[G5210]not[G3756]much[G3123] better than[G1308]they?[G846]
27Which[G1537] of you[G5216] by taking thought[G3309]can[G1410]add[G4369]one[G1520]cubit[G4083]unto[G1909]his[G846]stature?[G2244]
28And[G2532]why[G5101] take ye thought[G3309]for[G4012]raiment?[G1742]Consider[G2648] the lilies[G2918] of the field[G68], how[G4459] they grow[G837]; they toil[G2872]not[G3756], neither[G3761] do they spin[G3514]:
29
And yet[G1161] I say[G3004] unto you[G5213], That[G3754]even[G3761]Solomon[G4672]in[G1722]all[G3956]his[G846]glory[G1391]was[G4016]not[G3761]arrayed[G4016]like[G5613]one[G1520] of these[G5130].
30Wherefore[G1161], if[G1487]God[G2316]so[G3779]clothe[G294] the grass[G5528] of the field[G68], which to day[G4594]is[G5607], and[G2532] to morrow[G839]is[G5607]cast[G906]into[G1519] the oven[G2823], shall he not[G3756]much[G4183]more[G3123]clothe[G294]you[G5209], O ye of little faith?[G3640]
31Therefore[G3767] take no[G3361]thought[G3309], saying[G3004], What[G5101] shall we eat?[G5315]or[G2228], What[G5101] shall we drink?[G4095]or[G2228], Wherewithal[G5101] shall we be clothed?[G4016]
32
(For[G1063]after[G1934]all[G3956] these things[G5023] do the Gentiles[G1484]seek[G1934]:) for[G1063]your[G5216]heavenly[G3770]Father[G3962]knoweth[G1492]that[G3754] ye have need[G5535] of all[G537] these things[G5130].
33But[G1161] seek ye[G2212]first[G4412] the kingdom[G932] of God[G2316], and[G2532]his[G846]righteousness[G1343]; and[G2532]all[G3956] these things[G5023] shall be added[G4369] unto you[G5213].
34Take[G3309]therefore[G3767]no[G3361]thought[G3309]for[G1519] the morrow[G839]: for[G1063] the morrow[G839] shall take[G3309]thought[G3309]for[G1063] the things[G3588] of itself[G1438]. Sufficient[G713] unto the day[G2250] is the evil[G2549]thereof[G846].
