Matthew 6:2-18

2WhenG3752 thereforeG3767 thou doest almsG1654, soundG4537 notG3361 a trumpetG4537 beforeG1715 thee, asG1722 theG3588 hypocritesG5273 doG4160 inG1722 theG3588 synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 theG3588 streetsG4505, thatG3004 theyG846 mayG2532 have gloryG1392 ofG1722 menG444. Verily IG281 sayG3004 unto youG5210, TheyG846 have receivedG568 theirG846 rewardG3408.

3ButG1161 whenG1161 thou doest almsG1654, letG1097 notG3361 thy leftG710 handG1188 knowG1097 whatG5101 thy rightG1188 handG1188 doeth:

4thatG3704 thine almsG1654 mayG2532 beG1510 inG1722 secretG2927: andG2532 thy FatherG3962 whichG3588 seeth inG1722 secretG2927 shallG2532 recompense thee.

5AndG2532 whenG3752 ye prayG4336, ye shallG444 notG3756 beG1510 asG5613 theG3588 hypocritesG5273: forG3754 theyG846 loveG5368 toG3004 standG2476 andG2532 prayG4336 inG1722 theG3588 synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 theG3588 cornersG1137 ofG1722 theG3588 streetsG4116, thatG3754 theyG846 mayG2532 beG1510 seenG5316 ofG1722 menG444. Verily IG281 sayG3004 unto youG5210, TheyG846 haveG1510 receivedG568 theirG846 rewardG3408.

6ButG1161 thou, whenG3752 thou prayest, enterG1525 intoG1519 thine innerG5009 chamber, andG2532 having shutG2808 thy doorG2374, prayG4336 toG1519 thy FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 secretG2927, andG2532 thy FatherG3962 whichG3588 seeth inG1722 secretG2927 shallG2532 recompense thee.

7AndG1161 inG1722 prayingG4336 useG945 notG3361 vain repetitions, asG1722 theG3588 GentilesG1482 doG1380: forG1063 theyG846 thinkG1380 thatG3754 theyG846 shall beG3361 heardG1522 forG1063 theirG846 much speaking.

8BeG3767 notG3361 thereforeG3767 likeG3666 unto themG846: forG1063 yourG2192 FatherG3962 knoweth whatG3739 thingsG3739 ye have needG5532 ofG3962, beforeG4253 ye askG154 himG846.

9AfterG3767 thisG3779 mannerG3779 thereforeG3767 prayG4336 ye: OurG1722 FatherG3962 whichG3588 art inG1722 heavenG3772, HallowedG37 beG3767 thy nameG3686.

10Thy kingdomG932 comeG2064. Thy willG2307 beG1096 doneG1096, asG5613 inG1722 heavenG3772, soG2532 onG1909 earthG1093.

11GiveG1325 usG1325 thisG3588 dayG4594 our dailyG1967 breadG740.

12AndG2532 forgiveG863 usG863 ourG2532 debtsG3783, asG5613 weG2249 alsoG2532 have forgivenG863 ourG2532 debtorsG3781.

13AndG2532 bringG1533 usG1519 notG3361 intoG1519 temptationG3986, butG235 deliverG4506 usG1519 fromG575 theG3588 evilG4190 oneG3588.

14ForG1063 ifG1437 ye forgiveG863 menG444 theirG846 trespassesG3900, yourG1437 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 willG444 alsoG2532 forgiveG863 youG5210.

15ButG1161 ifG1437 ye forgiveG863 notG3361 menG444 theirG863 trespassesG3900, neitherG3761 willG444 yourG1437 FatherG3962 forgiveG863 yourG1437 trespassesG3900.

16MoreoverG1161 whenG3752 ye fastG3522, beG1096 notG3361, asG5613 theG3588 hypocritesG5273, ofG444 a sadG4659 countenance: forG1063 theyG846 disfigure theirG846 facesG4383, thatG3004 theyG846 mayG3004 beG1096 seenG5316 ofG444 menG444 toG3004 fastG3522. Verily IG281 sayG3004 unto youG5210, TheyG846 have receivedG568 theirG846 rewardG3408.

17ButG1161 thou, whenG2532 thou fastest, anointG218 thy headG2776, andG2532 washG3538 thy faceG4383;

18thatG3704 thou beG2532 notG3361 seenG991 ofG3962 menG444 toG2532 fastG3522, butG235 ofG3962 thy FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 secretG2927: andG2532 thy FatherG3962, whichG3588 seeth inG1722 secretG2927, shallG444 recompense thee.
