Matthew 6:2-18

2SoG3767 whenG3752 you give to the needyG4160G1654, do not sound a trumpetG4537G3361 beforeG1715 youG4771, asG5618 theG3588 hypocritesG5273 doG4160 inG1722 theG3588 synagoguesG4864 andG2532 onG1722 theG3588 streetsG4505, toG3704 be honoredG1392 byG5259 menG444. TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, they already haveG568 theirG846 full rewardG3408. 3ButG1161 when youG4771 give to the needyG4160G1654, do not letG3361 yourG4771 leftG710 hand knowG1097 whatG5101 yourG4771 right handG1188 is doingG4160, 4so thatG3704 yourG4771 givingG1654 may beG1510 inG1722 secretG2927. AndG2532 yourG4771 FatherG3962, who seesG991 what is doneG1722G3588 in secretG2927, will rewardG591 youG4771.

5AndG2532 whenG3752 you prayG4336, do not beG1510G3756 likeG5613 theG3588 hypocritesG5273. ForG3754 they loveG5368 to prayG4336 standingG2476 inG1722 theG3588 synagoguesG4864 andG2532 onG1722 theG3588 streetG4113 cornersG1137 to be seenG3704G5316 by menG444. TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, they already haveG568 theirG846 full rewardG3408. 6ButG1161 whenG3752 you prayG4336, goG1525 intoG1519 yourG4771 inner roomG5009, shutG2808 yourG4771 doorG2374, and prayG4336 toG3588 yourG4771 FatherG3962, whoG3588 is unseenG1722G3588G2927. AndG2532 yourG4771 FatherG3962, whoG3588 seesG991 what is doneG1722G3588 in secretG2927, will rewardG591 youG4771.

7AndG1161 when you prayG4336, do not babble onG945G3361 likeG5618 pagansG1482, forG1063 they thinkG1380 thatG3754 byG1722 theirG846 many wordsG4180 they will be heardG1522. 8Do notG3361 be likeG3666 themG846, forG1063 yourG3588G4771 FatherG3962 knowsG1492 whatG3739 youG2192 needG5532 beforeG4253 youG4771 askG154 HimG846.

9So thenG3767, this is howG3779 youG4771 should prayG4336:

14ForG1063 ifG1437 you forgiveG863 menG444 theirG846 trespassesG3900, yourG4771 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 will also forgiveG863G2532 youG4771. 15ButG1161 ifG1437 you do not forgiveG863G3361 menG444 theirG846 trespassesG3900, neitherG3761 willG3588 yourG4771 FatherG3962 forgiveG863 yoursG4771G3900.

WhenG3752 you fastG3522, do notG3361 beG1096 somberG4659 likeG5613 theG3588 hypocritesG5273, forG1063 they disfigureG853 theirG846 facesG4383 to showG3704G5316 menG444 they are fastingG3522. TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, they already haveG568 theirG846 full rewardG3408. 17ButG1161 when youG4771 fastG3522, anointG218 yourG4771 headG2776 andG2532 washG3538 yourG4771 faceG4383, 18so thatG3704 your fastingG3522 will not be obviousG5316G3361 to menG444, but onlyG235 toG3588 yourG4771 FatherG3962, whoG3588 is unseenG1722G3588G2927. AndG2532 yourG4771 FatherG3962, whoG3588 seesG991 what is doneG1722G3588 in secretG2927, will rewardG591 youG4771.
