MLV(i)
1 Take-heed not to do your charity before men, to be seen by them, otherwise you have no reward from your Father, the one in the heavens.
2 Therefore, whenever you are doing charity, do not sound a trumpet before you just-like the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the lanes, that they may be glorified by men. Assuredly I am saying to you, They are having their reward. 3 But when you are doing charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 that your charity may be in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will be repaying you openly.
5 And whenever you pray, do not be just-like the hypocrites, because they love to pray, standing in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may appear devout to men. Assuredly I am say to you, that they are having their reward. 6 But you, whenever you pray, enter into your storeroom, and when you have locked your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will be repaying you openly. 7 And while praying, do not be repetitious just-like the Gentile; for they think that they will be heard in their many words. 8 Therefore, do not be similar to them, for your Father knows what things you have need of before you ask him. 9 Therefore pray thus: our Father, the one in the heavens, let your name be made holy. 10 Let your kingdom come. Let your will happen as in heaven, also upon the earth. 11 Give our needful bread to us today. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. 13 And do not bring us into temptation, but rescue us from the evil one, because yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. 14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also be forgiving you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father be forgiving your trespasses.
16 Now whenever you fast, do not become just-like the hypocrites, with a gloomy face; for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly I am saying to you, They are having their reward.
