|
6:1 Take heed that ye do not
your alms before men, to be
seen of them: otherwise ye
have no reward of your
Father which is in heaven. |
|
|
|
|
|
6:2 Therefore when thou
doest thine alms, do not
sound a trumpet before thee,
as the hypocrites do in the
synagogues and in the
streets, that they may have
glory of men. Verily I say
unto you, They have their
reward. |
|
|
|
|
|
6:3 But when thou doest
alms, let not thy left hand
know what thy right hand
doeth:
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:4 That thine alms may be
in secret: and thy Father
which seeth in secret himself
shall reward thee openly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:5 And when thou prayest,
thou shalt not be as the
hypocrites are: for they love
to pray standing in the
synagogues and in the
corners of the streets, that
they may be seen of men.
Verily I say unto you, They
have their reward.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:6 But thou, when thou
prayest, enter into thy closet,
and when thou hast shut thy
door, pray to thy Father
which is in secret; and thy
Father which seeth in secret
shall reward thee openly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:7 But when ye pray, use
not vain repetitions, as the
heathen do: for they think
that they shall be heard for
their much speaking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:8 Be not ye therefore like
unto them: for your Father
knoweth what things ye have
need of, before ye ask him
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:9 After this manner
therefore pray ye: Our Father
which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name. |
|
|
|
|
|
6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy
will be done in earth, as it is
in heaven.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:11 Give us this day our
daily bread.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:12 And forgive us our
debts, as we forgive our
debtors. |
|
|
|
|
|
6:13 And lead us not
into temptation, but deliver
us from evil: For thine is the
kingdom, and the power, and
the glory, for ever. Amen.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:14 For if ye forgive men
their trespasses, your
heavenly Father will also
forgive you:
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:15 But if ye forgive not men
their trespasses, neither will
your Father forgive your
trespasses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:16 Moreover when ye fast,
be not, as the hypocrites, of
a sad countenance: for they
disfigure their faces, that they
may appear unto men to
fast. Verily I say unto you,
They have their reward.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:17 But thou, when thou
fastest, anoint thine head,
and wash thy face;
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:18 That thou appear not
unto men to fast, but unto thy
Father which is in secret:
and thy Father, which seeth
in secret, shall reward thee
openly. |
|
|
|
|
|
6:19 Lay not up for
yourselves treasures upon
earth, where moth and rust
doth corrupt, and where
thieves break through and
steal: |
|
|
|
|
|
6:20 But lay up for
yourselves treasures in
heaven, where neither moth
nor rust doth corrupt, and
where thieves do not break
through nor steal: |
|
|
|
|
|
6:21 For where your treasure
is, there will your heart be
also.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:22 The light of the body is
the eye: if therefore thine eye
be single, thy whole body
shall be full of light.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:23 But if thine eye be evil,
thy whole body shall be full
of darkness. If therefore the
light that is in thee be
darkness, how great is that
darkness!
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:24 No man can serve two
masters: for either he will
hate the one, and love the
other; or else he will hold to
the one, and despise the
other. Ye cannot serve God
and mammon.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:25 Therefore I say unto
you, Take no thought for your
life, what ye shall eat, or
what ye shall drink; nor yet
for your body, what ye shall
put on. Is not the life more
than meat, and the body than
raiment?
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:26 Behold the fowls of the
air: for they sow not, neither
do they reap, nor gather into
barns; yet your heavenly
Father feedeth them. Are ye
not much better than they?
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:27 Which of you by taking
thought can add one cubit
unto his stature?
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:28 And why take ye
thought for raiment?
Consider the lilies of the field,
how they grow; they toil not,
neither do they spin:
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:29 And yet I say unto you,
That even Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like
one of these.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:30 Wherefore, if God so
clothe the grass of the field,
which to day is, and to
morrow is cast into the oven,
shall he not much more
clothe you, O ye of little
faith? |
|
|
|
|
|
6:31 Therefore take no
thought, saying, What shall
we eat? or, What shall we
drink? or, Wherewithal shall
we be clothed? |
|
|
|
|
|
6:32 (For after all these
things do the Gentiles seek:)
for your heavenly Father
knoweth that ye have need of
all these things.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:33 But seek ye first the
kingdom of God, and his
righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto
you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6:34 Take therefore no
thought for the morrow: for
the morrow shall take
thought for the things of
itself. Sufficient unto the day
is the evil thereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:1 Judge not, that ye be not
judged.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:2 For with what judgment
ye judge, ye shall be judged:
and with what measure ye
mete, it shall be measured to
you again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:3 And why beholdest thou
the mote that is in thy
brother’s eye, but
considerest not the beam
that is in thine own eye?
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:4 Or how wilt thou say to
thy brother, Let me pull out
the mote out of thine eye;
and, behold, a beam is in
thine own eye? |
|
|
|
|
|
7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast
out the beam out of thine
own eye; and then shalt thou
see clearly to cast out the
mote out of thy brother’s eye. |
|
|
|
|
|
7:6 Give not that which is
holy unto the dogs, neither
cast ye your pearls before
swine, lest they trample them
under their feet, and turn
again and rend you. |
|
|
|
|
|
7:7 Ask, and it shall be given
you; seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened
unto you: 7:8 For every one
that asketh receiveth; and he
that seeketh findeth; and to
him that knocketh it shall be
opened.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:9 Or what man is there of
you, whom if his son ask
bread, will he give him a
stone?
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:10 Or if he ask a
fish, will he give him a
serpent?
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:11 If ye then, being evil,
know how to give good gifts
unto your children, how much
more shall your Father
which is in heaven give good
things to them that ask him? |
|
|
|
|
|
7:12 Therefore all things
whatsoever ye would that
men should do to you, do ye
even so to them: for this is
the law and the prophets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:13 Enter ye in at the strait
gate: for wide is the gate,
and broad is the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and
many there be which go in
thereat:
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:14 Because strait is the
gate, and narrow is the way,
which leadeth unto life, and
few there be that find it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:15 Beware of false
prophets, which come to you
in sheep’s clothing, but
inwardly they are ravening
wolves.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:16 Ye shall know them by
their fruits. Do men gather
grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles?
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:17 Even so every good tree
bringeth forth good fruit; but
a corrupt tree bringeth forth
evil fruit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:18 A good tree cannot bring
forth evil fruit, neither can a
corrupt tree bring forth good
fruit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:19 Every tree that bringeth
not forth good fruit is hewn
down, and cast into the fire.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:20 Wherefore by their fruits
ye shall know them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:21 Not every one that saith
unto me, Lord, Lord, shall
enter into the kingdom of
heaven; but he that doeth the
will of my Father which is in
heaven.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:22 Many will say to me in
that day, Lord, Lord, have we
not prophesied in thy name?
and in thy name have cast
out devils? and in thy name
done many wonderful works?
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:23 And then will I profess
unto them, I never knew you:
depart from me, ye that work
iniquity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:24 Therefore whosoever
heareth these sayings of
mine, and doeth them, I will
liken him unto a wise man,
which built his house upon a
rock:
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:25 And the rain
descended, and the floods
came, and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house;
and it fell not: for it was
founded upon a rock.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:26 And every one that
heareth these sayings of
mine, and doeth them not,
shall be likened unto a
foolish man, which built his
house upon the sand:
|
|
|
|
|
|
7:27 And the rain descended,
and the floods came, and
the winds blew, and beat
upon that house; and it fell:
and great was the fall of it.
