1Take heed that you do not do your righteousness before men, to be seen by them: else you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. 2When therefore you do alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Truly I say to you, They have received their reward. 3But when you do alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand does: 4that your alms may be in secret: and your Father who sees in secret shall recompense you. 5And when you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites: for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, They have received their reward. 6But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret shall recompense you. 7And in praying do not use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8Therefore do not be like them: for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you ask him. 9After this manner therefore pray: Our Father who are in heaven, Hallowed be your name. 10Your kingdom come. Your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. 11Give us this day our daily bread. 12And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. 14For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. 16Moreover when you fast, do not be, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by men to fast. Truly I say to you, They have received their reward. 17But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; 18that you may not be seen by men to fast, but by your Father who is in secret: and your Father, who sees in secret, shall recompense you. 19Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: 20but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore your eye is single, your whole body shall be full of light. 23But if your eye is evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! 24No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. 25Therefore I say to you, Do not be anxious for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor yet for your body, what you shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the clothing? 26Behold the birds of the heaven, that they do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much more value than they? 27And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to the measure of his life? 28And why are you anxious concerning clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they do not toil, neither do they spin: 29yet I say to you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30But if God does so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31Therefore do not be anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, With what shall we be clothed? 32For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. 33But seek first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. 34Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow: for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient to the day is its own evil.
