Chapter 6

 
 
 
 
 
 
Take heed that you do not your justice before men, to be seen by them: otherwise you shall not have a reward of your Father who is in heaven.
_____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
Therefore when thou dost an almsdeed, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be honoured by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But when thou dost alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doth. 
___________________________________________________________ 

 

 
 
That thy alms may be in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret will repay thee.
____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
And when ye pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, that love to stand and pray in the synagogues and corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men: Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But thou when thou shalt pray, enter into thy chamber, and having shut the door, pray to thy Father in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret will repay thee.
____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
And when you are praying, speak not much, as the heathens. For they think that in their much speaking they may be heard.
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Be not you therefore like to them, for your Father knoweth what is needful for you, before you ask him.
____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
Thus therefore shall you pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. 
_____________________________________________________________ 

 

 

 
 
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
___________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
_________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
_____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil. Amen.
___________________________________________________________
 
 

 

 
 
For if you will forgive men their offences, your heavenly Father will forgive you also your offences.
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But if you will not forgive men, neither will your Father forgive you your offences.
____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
And when you fast, be not as the hypocrites, sad. For they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But thou, when thou fastest anoint thy head, and wash thy face;
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
That thou appear not to men to fast, but to thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret, will repay thee.
____________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through and steal.
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal.
_________________________________________________________

 

 
 
For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.
___________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
The light of thy body is thy eye. If thy eye be single, thy whole body shall be lightsome.
__________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But if thy eye be evil thy whole body shall be darksome. If then the light that is in thee, be darkness: the darkness itself how great shall it be!
___________________________________________________________

 

 

 
 
No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
_________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Therefore I say to you, be not solicitous for your life, what you shall eat, nor for your body, what you shall put on. Is not the life more than the meat: and the body more than the raiment?
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Behold the birds of the air, for they neither sow, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns: and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not you of much more value than they?
_____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
And which of you by taking thought, can add to his stature by one cubit?
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
And for raiment why are you solicitous? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin.
_____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.
__________________________________________________________

 

 
 
And if the grass of the field, which is to day, and to morrow is cast into the oven, God doth so clothe: how much more you, O ye of little faith?
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Be not solicitous therefore, saying, What shall we eat: or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed?
_____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
For after all these things do the heathens seek. For your Father knoweth that you have need of all these things.
___________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you.
____________________________________________________________

 

 
 
Be not therefore solicitous for to morrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.
