Matthew 6:1-20 ▼

1 “ And beware not to do your? righteousness before men in order to be seen by them. Otherwise, you? have no reward from your? Father who is in the heavens.

2 Therefore, when you may do charity, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets so that they may be glorified by men. Truly I say to you?, they have their reward in full.

3 But in your doing charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

4 so that your charity may be in secret. And your Father, the One seeing in secret, will reward to you.

5 And when you? may pray, you? shall not be like the hypocrites, because they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets so that they might be seen by men. Truly I say to you?, they have their reward in full.

6 But you, when you may pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father, the One in secret. And your Father, the One seeing in secret, will reward to you.

7 And praying, do not use vain repetitions like the Gentiles, for they think that in their many words they will be heard.

8 Therefore do not be like them, for your? Father knows of what things you? have need before your? asking Him.

9 Therefore pray you? this way: ‘Our Father who is in the heavens, hallowed be Your name.

10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done, as in heaven, also upon earth.

11 Give us today our necessary 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 the evil one.’

14 For if you? forgive men their trespasses, your? heavenly Father will also forgive you?.

15 But if you? do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your? Father forgive your? trespasses.

16 And when you? may fast, do not be as the hypocrites, gloomy-faced; for they disfigure their faces so that they might appear to men as fasting. Truly I say to you?, they have their reward in full.

17 But you, fasting, anoint your head and wash your face,

18 so that you might not appear to men as fasting, but to your Father, the One in secret. And your Father, the One seeing in secret, will reward you.

19 Do not treasure up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust disfigure, and where thieves break in and steal.

20 But treasure up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust disfigure, and where thieves do not break in, nor do they steal.
