Matthew 6:16-19

16“NowG1161 1wheneverG3752 you fastG3522, do not makeG1096 a gloomyG4659 faceG4659 as the hypocritesG5273 do, for they 2distortG853 their facesG4383 soG3704 thatG3704 they will be noticedG5316 by peopleG444 when they are fastingG3522. 3TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, they haveG568 their rewardG3408 in fullG568. 17But as for you, when you fastG3522, 4 5anointG218 your headG2776 and washG3538 your faceG4383, 18soG3704 thatG3704 your fastingG3522 will not be noticedG5316 by peopleG444 but by your FatherG3962 whoG3588 is in secretG2931; and your 6FatherG3962 whoG3588 seesG991 what is done in secretG2931 will rewardG591 you.

19“7Do not storeG2343 upG2343 for yourselvesG4771 treasuresG2344 on earthG1093, whereG3699 mothG4597 and rustG1035 destroyG853, and whereG3699 thievesG2812 breakG1358 inG1358 and stealG2813.
