Matthew 6 |
|
1 | "Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. |
2 | "Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. |
3 | But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, |
4 | so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. |
5 | "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. |
6 | But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. |
7 | "And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words. |
8 | Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. |
9 | Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. |
10 | Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. |
11 | Give us this day our daily bread; |
12 | And forgive us our debts, As we also have forgiven our debtors; |
13 | And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. |
14 | For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; |
15 | but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. |
16 | "And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. |
17 | But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, |
18 | that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. |
