King James Version, Updated™

(1) "Take heed that YOU do not do your good deeds before men, to be seen of them. Otherwise YOU have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

(2) Therefore, when you do your good deeds, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward.

(3) But when you do good deeds, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

(4) that your good deeds may be in secret, and your Father who sees in secret shall himself 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 on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Truly, I say to you, They have their reward.

(6) But when you pray, go into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father in secret, and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly.

(7) But when you pray, do not use vain repetitions, as the heathen do. For they think that they shall be heard for speaking much.

(8) Therefore, do not be like them. For your Father knows what things YOU have need of, before YOU ask him.

(9) After this manner therefore pray, Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be your name.

(10) Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

(13) And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

(14) For if YOU forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

(15) But if YOU do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

(16) Moreover, when YOU fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance, for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men as fasting. Truly, I say to you, They have their reward.

(17) But when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face;

(18) so you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly.

(19) Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust will corrupt, and where thieves break in and steal.

(20) But lay up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor rust will corrupt, and where thieves will not break in and steal.

(21) For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

(22) The light of the body is the eye. Therefore, if your eye is sound, your whole body shall be full of light.

(23) But if your eye is evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. Therefore, if the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

(24) No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. YOU cannot serve God and mammon.

(25) Therefore I say to you, Take no thought for your life, what YOU shall eat, or what YOU shall drink, nor for your body, what YOU shall put on. Is not the life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

(26) Consider the birds of the air, for they do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are YOU not much better than they?

(27) Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit to his stature?

(28) And why do YOU take thought for clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They do not toil, neither do they spin.

(29) Yet I say to you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

(30) Therefore, if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, shall he not do much more to clothe you, O YOU of little faith?

(31) Therefore take no thought, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or, 'What shall we drink?' or, 'How shall we be clothed?'

(32) (For all these things the Gentiles seek after.) For your heavenly Father knows that YOU need all of these things.

(33) But seek YOU first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

(34) Therefore take no thought for tomorrow. For tomorrow shall take thought for its own things. Sufficient to the day is its own evil."
