1 | "Be careful that you don`t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. | Mt 16:6 Mk 8:15 Lk 11:35 Lk 12:1 Lk 12:15 Heb 2:1 |
2 | Therefore when you do merciful deeds, don`t sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from men. Most assuredly, I tell you, they have received their reward. | Jb 31:16-20 Ps 37:21 Ps 112:9 Pr 19:17 Ec 11:2 Isa 58:7 Isa 58:10-12 Lk 11:41 Lk 12:33 Jn 13:29 Ac 9:36 Ac 10:2 Ac 10:4 Ac 10:31 Ac 11:29 Ac 24:17 Ro 12:8 2Co 9:6-15 Ga 2:10 Eph 4:28 1Ti 6:18 Phm 1:7 Heb 13:16 Jm 2:15 Jm 2:16 1Pe 4:11 1Jn 3:17-19 |
3 | But when you do merciful deeds, don`t let your left hand know what your right hand does, | Mt 8:4 Mt 9:30 Mt 12:19 Mk 1:44 Jn 7:4 |
4 | so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. | Mt 6:6 Mt 6:18 Ps 17:3 Ps 44:21 Ps 139:1-3 Ps 139:12-3 Jer 17:10 Jer 23:24 Heb 4:13 Rev 2:23 |
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 assuredly, I tell you, they have received their reward. | Mt 7:7 Mt 7:8 Mt 9:38 Mt 21:22 Ps 5:2 Ps 55:17 Pr 15:8 Isa 55:6 Isa 55:7 Jer 29:12 Dn 6:10 Dn 9:4-19 Lk 18:1 Jn 16:24 Eph 6:18 Col 4:2 Col 4:3 1Th 5:17 Jm 5:15 Jm 5:16 |
6 | But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. | Mt 14:23 Mt 26:36-39 Gn 32:24-29 2Ki 4:33 Isa 26:20 Jn 1:48 Ac 9:40 Ac 10:9 Ac 10:30 |
7 | In praying, don`t use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. | 1Ki 18:26-29 Ec 5:2 Ec 5:3 Ec 5:7 Ac 19:34 |
8 | Therefore don`t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him. | Mt 6:32 Ps 38:9 Ps 69:17-19 Lk 12:30 Jn 16:23-27 Php 4:6 |
9 | Pray like this. `Our Father, who is in heaven, may your name be kept holy. | Lk 11:1 Lk 11:2 |
10 | May your kingdom come. May your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. | Mt 3:2 Mt 4:17 Mt 16:28 Ps 2:6 Isa 2:2 Jer 23:5 Dn 2:44 Dn 7:13 Dn 7:27 Zc 9:9 Mk 11:10 Lk 19:11 Lk 19:38 Col 1:13 Rev 11:15 Rev 12:10 Rev 19:6 Rev 20:4 |
11 | Give us this day our daily bread. | Mt 4:4 Ex 16:16-35 Jb 23:12 Ps 33:18 Ps 33:19 Ps 34:10 Pr 30:8 Isa 33:16 Lk 11:3 Jn 6:31-59 2Th 3:12 1Ti 6:8 |
12 | Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. | Ex 34:7 1Ki 8:30 1Ki 8:34 1Ki 8:39 1Ki 8:50 Ps 32:1 Ps 130:4 Isa 1:18 Dn 9:19 Ac 13:38 Eph 1:7 1Jn 1:7-9 |
13 | Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever. Amen.` | Mt 26:41 Gn 22:1 Dt 8:2 Dt 8:16 Pr 30:8 Lk 22:31-46 1Co 10:13 2Co 12:7-9 Heb 11:36 1Pe 5:8 2Pe 2:9 Rev 2:10 Rev 3:10 |
14 | For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. | Mt 6:12 Mt 7:2 Mt 18:21-35 Pr 21:13 Mk 11:25 Mk 11:26 Eph 4:32 Col 3:13 Jm 2:13 1Jn 3:10 |
15 | But if you don`t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. |
16 | "Moreover when you fast, don`t be, as the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most assuredly I tell you, they have received their reward. | Mt 9:14 Mt 9:15 2Sa 12:16 2Sa 12:21 Ne 1:4 Es 4:16 Ps 35:13 Ps 69:10 Ps 109:24 Dn 9:3 Lk 2:37 Ac 10:30 Ac 13:2 Ac 13:3 Ac 14:23 1Co 7:5 2Co 6:5 2Co 11:27 |
17 | But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; | Ru 3:3 2Sa 14:2 Ec 9:8 Dn 10:2 Dn 10:3 |
18 | 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. | 2Co 5:9 2Co 10:18 Col 3:22-24 1Pe 2:13 |
19 | "Don`t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; | Jb 31:24 Ps 39:6 Ps 62:10 Pr 11:4 Pr 16:16 Pr 23:5 Ec 2:26 Ec 5:10-14 Zep 1:18 Lk 12:21 Lk 18:24 1Ti 6:8-10 1Ti 6:17-10 Heb 13:5 Jm 5:1-3 1Jn 2:15 1Jn 2:16 |
20 | but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don`t break through and steal; | Mt 19:21 Isa 33:6 Lk 12:33 Lk 18:22 1Ti 6:17 Heb 10:34 Heb 11:26 Jm 2:5 1Pe 1:4 1Pe 5:4 Rev 2:9 |
21 | for where your treasure is, your heart will be there also. | Isa 33:6 Lk 12:34 2Co 4:18 |
22 | The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light. | Lk 11:34-36 |
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! | Mt 20:15 Isa 44:18-20 Mk 7:22 Eph 4:18 Eph 5:8 1Jn 2:11 |
24 | "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You can`t serve both God and Mammon. | Mt 4:10 Jsh 24:15 Jsh 24:19 Jsh 24:20 1Sa 7:3 1Ki 18:21 2Ki 17:33 2Ki 17:34 2Ki 17:41 Ezk 20:39 Zep 1:5 Lk 16:13 Ro 6:16-22 Ga 1:10 2Ti 4:10 Jm 4:4 1Jn 2:15 1Jn 2:16 |
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 put on. Isn`t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? | Mt 5:22-28 Lk 12:4 Lk 12:5 Lk 12:8 Lk 12:9 Lk 12:22 |
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? | Mt 10:29-31 Gn 1:29-31 Jb 35:11 Jb 38:41 Ps 104:11 Ps 104:12 Ps 104:27 Ps 104:28 Ps 145:15 Ps 145:16 Ps 147:9 Lk 12:6 Lk 12:7 Lk 12:24-31 |
27 | Which of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to the measure of his life? | Mt 5:36 Ps 39:6 Ec 3:14 Lk 12:25 Lk 12:26 1Co 12:18 |
28 | Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don`t toil, neither do they spin, | Mt 6:25 Mt 6:31 Mt 10:10 Lk 3:11 Lk 22:35 Lk 22:36 |
29 | yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. | 1Ki 10:5-7 2Ch 9:4-6 2Ch 9:20-22 1Ti 2:9 1Ti 2:10 1Pe 3:2-5 |
30 | But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, won`t he much more clothe you, you of little faith? | Ps 90:5 Ps 90:6 Ps 92:7 Isa 40:6-8 Lk 12:28 Jm 1:10 Jm 1:11 1Pe 1:24 |
31 | Therefore don`t be anxious, saying, `What will we eat?`, `What will we drink?` or, `With what will we be clothed?` | Mt 4:4 Mt 15:33 Lv 25:20-22 2Ch 25:9 Ps 37:3 Ps 55:22 Ps 78:18-31 Lk 12:29 1Pe 5:7 |
32 | For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. | Mt 5:46 Mt 5:47 Mt 20:25 Mt 20:26 Ps 17:14 Lk 12:30 Eph 4:17 1Th 4:5 |
33 | But seek first God`s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be added to you. | 1Ki 3:11-13 1Ki 17:13 2Ch 1:7-12 2Ch 31:20 2Ch 31:21 Pr 2:1-9 Pr 3:9 Pr 3:10 Hg 1:2-11 Hg 2:16-19 Lk 12:31 Jn 6:27 |
34 | Therefore don`t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day`s own evil is sufficient. | Mt 6:11 Mt 6:25 Ex 16:18-20 Lam 3:23 |
