Matthew 6 Beware of doing your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.

Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Beware of doing your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven. ² When, therefore, you do a charitable deed, do not cause a trumpet to be sounded before you, as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be glorified by men. Verily, I say to you, They have their reward. ³ But when you do a charitable deed, let not your left hand know what your right hand does; ⁴ that your charitable deeds may be in secret; and. your Father, who sees in secret, himself will reward you openly. ⁵ And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues, and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Verily, I say to you, They have their reward. ⁶ But do you, when you pray, go into your closet, and when you have closed the door, pray to your Father who is in secret: and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. ⁷ But when you pray, do not use vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they will be heard for their many words. ⁸ Be not, there fore, like them; for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him. ⁹ In this manner, therefore, pray you: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. ¹⁰ Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is done in heaven. ¹¹ Give us this day the bread for our support. ¹² And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. ¹³ And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the Evil One. ¹⁴ For if you forgive men their offenses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. ¹⁵ But if you forgive not men their offenses, neither will your Father forgive your offenses. ¹⁶ And when you fast, do not put on a sad countenance, as the hypocrites do; for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men to be fasting. Verily, I say to you, They have their reward. ¹⁷ But do you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face; ¹⁸ that you may not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. ¹⁹ Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal. ²⁰ But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal. ²¹ For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. ²² The lamp of the body is the eye: if, therefore, your eye be sound, your whole body will be light: ²³ But if your eye be diseased, your whole body will be dark. If therefore, the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness! ²⁴ No one can serve two masters: for he will either hate the one and love the other; or he will hold to the one, and neglect the other. You can not serve God and riches. ²⁵ For this reason I say to you, Be not anxious for your life, what you shall eat, and what you shall drink; nor for your body, what you shall put on. Is not your life a greater gift than food, and your body than clothing? ²⁶ Observe the birds of the air, that they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into granaries. Yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much better than they? ²⁷ Which of you, by his anxiety, can add one span to his life? ²⁸ And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field how they grow: they toil not, nor do they spin. ²⁹ But I say to you, That Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these. ³⁰ If then, God so clothes the herb of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, you of little faith? ³¹ Therefore, be not anxious, saying: What shall we eat? or, what shall we drink? or, with what shall we be clothed? ³² For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. ³³ But seek first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be given to you in addition. ³⁴ Therefore, be not anxious about the morrow, for the morrow will have anxieties of its own. Sufficient for the day is its own evil.
