Matthew 6

WEB·Matthew 6
1Be careful that you don’t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
KJVTake heedG4337(G5720) that ye doG4160(G5721) notG3361 yourG5216 almsG1654 beforeG1715 menG444, to be seenG4314G2300(G5683) of themG846: otherwiseG1490 ye haveG2192(G5719) noG3756 rewardG3408 ofG3844 yourG5216 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
2 Therefore, when you do merciful deeds, don’t sound a trumpet before yourself, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from men. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
KJVThereforeG3767 whenG3752 thou doestG4160(G5725) thine almsG1654, doG4537 notG3361 sound a trumpetG4537(G5661) beforeG1715 theeG4675, asG5618 the hypocritesG5273 doG4160(G5719) inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 the streetsG4505, thatG3704 they may have gloryG1392(G5686) ofG5259 menG444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213, They haveG568(G5719) theirG846 rewardG3408.
3 But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does,
KJVButG1161 when thouG4675 doestG4160(G5723) almsG1654, letG1097 notG3361 thyG4675 left handG710 knowG1097(G5628) whatG5101 thyG4675 right handG1188 doethG4160(G5719):
4 so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
KJVThatG3704 thineG4675 almsG1654 may beG5600(G5753) inG1722 secretG2927: andG2532 thyG4675 FatherG3962 whichG3588 seethG991(G5723) inG1722 secretG2927 himselfG846 shall rewardG591(G5692) theeG4671 openlyG1722G5318.
5 “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. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received their reward.
KJVAndG2532 whenG3752 thou prayestG4336(G5741), thou shaltG2071 notG3756 beG2071(G5704) asG5618 the hypocritesG5273 are: forG3754 they loveG5368(G5719) to prayG4336(G5738) standingG2476(G5761) inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 the cornersG1137 of the streetsG4113, thatG3704 they mayG302 be seenG5316(G5652) of menG444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213,G3754 They haveG568(G5719) theirG846 rewardG3408.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
KJVButG1161 thouG4771, whenG3752 thou prayestG4336(G5741), enterG1525(G5628) intoG1519 thyG4675 closetG5009, andG2532 when thou hast shutG2808(G5660) thyG4675 doorG2374, prayG4336(G5663) to thyG4675 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 secretG2927; andG2532 thyG4675 FatherG3962 whichG3588 seethG991(G5723) inG1722 secretG2927 shall rewardG591(G5692) theeG4671 openlyG1722G5318.
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
KJVButG1161 when ye prayG4336(G5740), useG945 notG3361 vain repetitionsG945(G5661), asG5618 the heathenG1482 do: forG1063 they thinkG1380(G5719) thatG3754 they shall be heardG1522(G5701) forG1722 theirG846 much speakingG4180.
8 Therefore don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.
KJVBeG3666 notG3361 yeG3666 thereforeG3767 likeG3666(G5686) unto themG846: forG1063 yourG5216 FatherG3962 knowethG1492(G5758) what thingsG3739 ye haveG2192(G5719) need ofG5532, beforeG4253 yeG5209 askG154(G5658) himG846.
9 Pray like this: “‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
KJVAfter this mannerG3779 thereforeG3767 prayG4336(G5737) yeG5210: OurG2257 FatherG3962 whichG3588 art inG1722 heavenG3772, Hallowed beG37(G5682) thyG4675 nameG3686.
10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
KJVThyG4675 kingdomG932 comeG2064(G5628). ThyG4675 willG2307 be doneG1096(G5676) inG1909 earthG1093, asG2532G5613 it is inG1722 heavenG3772.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
KJVGiveG1325(G5628) usG2254 this dayG4594 ourG2257 dailyG1967 breadG740.
12 Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
KJVAndG2532 forgiveG863(G5628) usG2254 ourG2257 debtsG3783, asG2532G5613 weG2249 forgiveG863(G5719) ourG2257 debtorsG3781.
13 Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.’
KJVAndG2532 leadG1533(G5661) usG2248 notG3361 intoG1519 temptationG3986, butG235 deliverG4506(G5663) usG2248 fromG575 evilG4190: ForG3754 thineG4675 isG2076(G5748) the kingdomG932, andG2532 the powerG1411, andG2532 the gloryG1391, forG1519 everG165. AmenG281.
14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
KJVForG1063 ifG1437 ye forgiveG863(G5632) menG444 theirG846 trespassesG3900, yourG5216 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 will alsoG2532 forgiveG863(G5692) youG5213:
15 But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
KJVButG1161 ifG3362 ye forgiveG863(G5632) notG3362 menG444 theirG846 trespassesG3900, neitherG3761 will yourG5216 FatherG3962 forgiveG863(G5692) yourG5216 trespassesG3900.
16 “Moreover when you fast, don’t be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
KJVMoreoverG1161 whenG3752 ye fastG3522(G5725), beG1096(G5737) notG3361, asG5618 the hypocritesG5273, of a sad countenanceG4659: forG1063 they disfigureG853(G5719) theirG846 facesG4383, thatG3704 they may appearG5316(G5652) unto menG444 to fastG3522(G5723). VerilyG281 I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213,G3754 They haveG568(G5719) theirG846 rewardG3408.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
KJVButG1161 thouG4771, when thou fastestG3522(G5723), anointG218(G5669) thineG4675 headG2776, andG2532 washG3538(G5669) thyG4675 faceG4383;
18 so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.
KJVThatG3704 thou appearG5316(G5652) notG3361 unto menG444 to fastG3522(G5723), butG235 unto thyG4675 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 secretG2927: andG2532 thyG4675 FatherG3962, whichG3588 seethG991(G5723) inG1722 secretG2927, shall rewardG591(G5692) theeG4671 openlyG1722G5318.
19 “Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;
KJVLayG2343 notG3361 upG2343(G5720) for yourselvesG5213 treasuresG2344 uponG1909 earthG1093, whereG3699 mothG4597 andG2532 rustG1035 doth corruptG853(G5719), andG2532 whereG3699 thievesG2812 break throughG1358(G5719) andG2532 stealG2813(G5719):
20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal;
KJVButG1161 lay upG2343(G5720) for yourselvesG5213 treasuresG2344 inG1722 heavenG3772, whereG3699 neitherG3777 mothG4597 norG3777 rustG1035 doth corruptG853(G5719), andG2532 whereG3699 thievesG2812 doG1358 notG3756 break throughG1358(G5719) norG3761 stealG2813(G5719):
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
KJVForG1063 whereG3699 yourG5216 treasureG2344 isG2076(G5748), thereG1563 willG2071 yourG5216 heartG2588 beG2071(G5704) alsoG2532.
22 “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
KJVThe lightG3088 of the bodyG4983 isG2076(G5748) the eyeG3788: ifG1437 thereforeG3767 thineG4675 eyeG3788 beG5600(G5753) singleG573, thyG4675 wholeG3650 bodyG4983 shall beG2071(G5704) full of lightG5460.
23 But if your eye is evil, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!
KJVButG1161 ifG1437 thineG4675 eyeG3788 beG5600(G5753) evilG4190, thyG4675 wholeG3650 bodyG4983 shall beG2071(G5704) full of darknessG4652. IfG1487 thereforeG3767 the lightG5457 that isG2076(G5748) inG1722 theeG4671 be darknessG4655, how greatG4214 is that darknessG4655!
24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Mammon.
KJVNo manG3762 canG1410(G5736) serveG1398(G5721) twoG1417 mastersG2962: forG1063 eitherG2228 he will hateG3404(G5692) the oneG1520, andG2532 loveG25(G5692) the otherG2087; or elseG2228 he will holdG472(G5695) to the oneG1520, andG2532 despiseG2706(G5692) the otherG2087. Ye cannotG3756G1410(G5736) serveG1398(G5721) GodG2316 andG2532 mammonG3126.
25 Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
KJVThereforeG1223G5124 I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213, Take noG3361 thoughtG3309(G5720) for yourG5216 lifeG5590, whatG5101 ye shall eatG5315(G5632), orG2532 whatG5101 ye shall drinkG4095(G5632); nor yet forG3366 yourG5216 bodyG4983, whatG5101 ye shall put onG1746(G5672). IsG2076(G5748) notG3780 the lifeG5590 more thanG4119 meatG5160, andG2532 the bodyG4983 than raimentG1742?
26 See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?
KJVBeholdG1689(G5657)G1519 the fowlsG4071 of the airG3772: forG3754 they sowG4687(G5719) notG3756, neitherG3761 do they reapG2325(G5719), norG3761 gatherG4863(G5719) intoG1519 barnsG596; yetG2532 yourG5216 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 feedethG5142(G5719) themG846. AreG1308 yeG5210 notG3756 muchG3123 better thanG1308(G5719) theyG846?
27 “Which of you by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?
KJVG1161 WhichG1537G5101 of youG5216 by taking thoughtG3309(G5723) canG1410(G5736) addG4369(G5629) oneG1520 cubitG4083 untoG1909 hisG846 statureG2244?
28 Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin,
KJVAndG2532 whyG5101 take ye thoughtG3309(G5720) forG4012 raimentG1742? ConsiderG2648(G5628) the liliesG2918 of the fieldG68, howG4459 they growG837(G5719); they toilG2872(G5719) notG3756, neitherG3761 do they spinG3514(G5719):
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
KJVAnd yetG1161 I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213, ThatG3754 evenG3761 SolomonG4672 inG1722 allG3956 hisG846 gloryG1391 wasG4016 notG3761 arrayedG4016(G5639) likeG5613 oneG1520 of theseG5130.
30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
KJVWhereforeG1161, ifG1487 GodG2316 soG3779 clotheG294(G5719) the grassG5528 of the fieldG68, which to dayG4594 isG5607(G5752), andG2532 to morrowG839 is castG906(G5746) intoG1519 the ovenG2823, shall he notG3756 muchG4183 moreG3123 clothe youG5209, O ye of little faithG3640?
31 “Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’
KJVThereforeG3767 take noG3361 thoughtG3309(G5661), sayingG3004(G5723), WhatG5101 shall we eatG5315(G5632)? orG2228, WhatG5101 shall we drinkG4095(G5632)? orG2228, WherewithalG5101 shall we be clothedG4016(G5643)?
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
KJV(ForG1063 afterG1934 allG3956 these thingsG5023 do the GentilesG1484 seekG1934(G5719):) forG1063 yourG5216 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 knowethG1492(G5758) thatG3754 ye have needG5535(G5719) of allG537 these thingsG5130.
33 But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
KJVButG1161 seek yeG2212(G5720) firstG4412 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, andG2532 hisG846 righteousnessG1343; andG2532 allG3956 these thingsG5023 shall be addedG4369(G5701) unto youG5213.
34 Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.
KJVTakeG3309 thereforeG3767 noG3361 thoughtG3309(G5661) forG1519 the morrowG839: forG1063 the morrowG839 shall take thoughtG3309(G5692) for the thingsG3588 of itselfG1438. SufficientG713 unto the dayG2250 is the evilG2549 thereofG846.
