Matthew 6:2-18
2ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 thou doestG4160 thine almsG1654, do notG3361 sound a trumpetG4537 beforeG1715 theeG4771, asG5618 the hypocritesG3588G5273 doG4160 inG1722 the synagoguesG3588G4864 andG2532 inG1722 the streetsG3588G4505, thatG3704 they may have gloryG1392 ofG5259 menG3588G444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, They haveG568 theirG846 rewardG3588G3408. 3ButG1161 whenG4160 thouG4771 doestG4160 almsG1654, letG1097 notG3361 thyG4771 left handG710 knowG1097 whatG5101 thyG4771 right handG1188 doethG4160: 4ThatG3704 thineG4771 almsG3588G1654 may beG1510 inG1722 secretG3588G2927: andG2532 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962 which seethG3588G991 inG1722 secretG3588G2927 himselfG846 shall rewardG591 theeG4771 openlyG1722G3588G5318.
5AndG2532 whenG3752 thou prayestG4336, thou shaltG1510 notG3756 beG1510 asG5618 the hypocritesG3588G5273 are: forG3754 they loveG5368 to prayG4336 standingG2476 inG1722 the synagoguesG3588G4864 andG2532 inG1722 the cornersG3588G1137 of the streetsG3588G4113, thatG3704 they may be seenG5316 of menG3588G444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, They haveG3754G568 theirG846 rewardG3588G3408. 6ButG1161 thouG4771, whenG3752 thou prayestG4336, enterG1525 intoG1519 thyG4771 closetG3588G5009, andG2532 when thou hast shutG2808 thyG4771 doorG3588G2374, prayG4336 toG3588G3962 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962 which isG3588 inG1722 secretG3588G2927; andG2532 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962 which seethG3588G991 inG1722 secretG3588G2927 shall rewardG591 theeG4771 openlyG1722G3588G5318. 7ButG1161 when ye prayG4336, useG945 notG3361 vain repetitionsG945, asG5618 the heathenG1482 do: forG1063 they thinkG1380 thatG3754 they shall be heardG1522 forG1722 theirG846 much speakingG3588G4180. 8BeG3666 notG3361 ye thereforeG3767 likeG3666 unto themG846: forG1063 yourG4771 FatherG3588G3962 knowethG1492 what thingsG3739 ye haveG2192 need ofG5532, beforeG4253 yeG4771 askG154 himG846. 9After this mannerG3779 thereforeG3767 prayG4336 yeG4771: OurG1473 FatherG3962 which artG3588 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772, Hallowed beG37 thyG4771 nameG3588G3686. 10ThyG4771 kingdomG3588G932 comeG2064. ThyG4771 willG3588G2307 be doneG1096 inG1909 earthG3588G1093, asG5613 it is inG1722 heavenG3772. 11GiveG1325 usG1473 this dayG4594 ourG1473 dailyG1967 breadG3588G740. 12AndG2532 forgiveG863 usG1473 ourG1473 debtsG3588G3783, asG5613 weG1473 forgiveG863 ourG1473 debtorsG3588G3781. 13AndG2532 leadG1533 usG1473 notG3361 intoG1519 temptationG3986, butG235 deliverG4506 usG1473 fromG575 evilG4190: ForG3754 thineG4771 isG1510 the kingdomG3588G932, andG2532 the powerG3588G1411, andG2532 the gloryG3588G1391, forG1519 everG3588G165. AmenG281. 14ForG1063 ifG1437 ye forgiveG863 menG3588G444 theirG846 trespassesG3588G3900, yourG4771 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3588G3962 willG863 alsoG2532 forgiveG863 youG4771: 15ButG1161 ifG1437 ye forgiveG863 notG3361 menG3588G444 theirG846 trespassesG3588G3900, neitherG3761 willG863 yourG4771 FatherG3588G3962 forgiveG863 yourG4771 trespassesG3588G3900.
16MoreoverG1161 whenG3752 ye fastG3522, beG1096 notG3361, asG5618 the hypocritesG3588G5273, of a sad countenanceG4659: forG1063 they disfigureG853 theirG846 facesG3588G4383, thatG3704 they may appearG5316 unto menG3588G444 to fastG3522. VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, They haveG568 theirG846 rewardG3588G3408. 17ButG1161 thouG4771, when thou fastestG3522, anointG218 thineG4771 headG3588G2776, andG2532 washG3538 thyG4771 faceG3588G4383; 18ThatG3704 thou appearG5316 notG3361 unto menG3588G444 to fastG3522, butG235 untoG3588G3962 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962 which isG3588 inG1722 secretG3588G2927: andG2532 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962, which seethG3588G991 inG1722 secretG3588G2927, shall rewardG591 theeG4771 openlyG1722G3588G5318.
