Matthew 6

1Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.

προσεχετε την ελεημοσυνην υμων μη ποιειν εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων προς το θεαθηναι αυτοις· ει δε μηγε, μισθον ουκ εχετε παρα τω πατρι υμων τω εν τοις ουρανοις.

2Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, 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. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

οταν ουν ποιης ελεημοσυνην, μη σαλπισης εμπροσθεν σου, ωσπερ οι υποκριται ποιουσιν εν ταις συναγωγαις και εν ταις ρυμαις, οπως δοξασθωσιν υπο των ανθρωπων· αμην λεγω υμιν, απεχουσιν τον μισθον αυτων.

3But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

σου δε ποιουντος ελεημοσυνην μη γνωτω η αριστερα σου τι ποιει η δεξια σου,

4that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.

οπως η σου η ελεημοσυνη εν τω κρυπτω, και ο πατηρ σου ο βλεπων εν τω κρυπτω αποδωσει σοι εν τω φανερω.

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 by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

και οταν προσευχη, ουκ εση ωσπερ οι υποκριται, οτι φιλουσιν εν ταις συναγωγαις και εν ταις γωνιαις των πλατειων εστωτες προσευχεσθαι, οπως αν φανωσιν τοις ανθρωποις· αμην λεγω υμιν οτι απεχουσιν τον μισθον αυτων.

6But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

συ δε οταν προσευχη, εισελθε εις το ταμιειον σου, και κλεισας την θυραν σου προσευξαι τω πατρι σου τω εν τω κρυπτω, και ο πατηρ σου ο βλεπων εν τω κρυπτω αποδωσει σοι εν τω φανερω.

7And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

προσευχομενοι δε μη βαττολογησητε ωσπερ οι εθνικοι· δοκουσιν γαρ οτι εν τη πολυλογια αυτων εισακουσθησονται.

8'Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.

μη ουν ομοιωθητε αυτοις· οιδεν γαρ ο πατηρ υμων ων χρειαν εχετε προ του υμας αιτησαι αυτον.

9In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

ουτως ουν προσευχεσθε υμεις· πατερ ημων ο εν τοις ουρανοις· αγιασθητω το ονομα σου·

10Your kingdom come.

ελθετω η βασιλεια σου· γενηθητω το θελημα σου, ως εν ουρανω, και επι της γης·

11Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.

τον αρτον ημων τον επιουσιον δος ημιν σημερον·

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

και αφες ημιν τα οφειληματα ημων, ως και ημεις αφιεμεν τοις οφειλεταις ημων·

13And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.

και μη εισενεγκης ημας εις πειρασμον, αλλα ρυσαι ημας απο του πονηρου. οτι σου εστιν η βασιλεια και η δυναμις και η δοξα εις τους αιωνας· αμην.

14For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.' For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

εαν γαρ αφητε τοις ανθρωποις τα παραπτωματα αυτων, αφησει και υμιν ο πατηρ υμων ο ουρανιος·

15But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

εαν δε μη αφητε τοις ανθρωποις τα παραπτωματα αυτων, ουδε ο πατηρ υμων αφησει τα παραπτωματα υμων.

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 to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

οταν δε νηστευητε, μη γινεσθε ωσπερ οι υποκριται σκυθρωποι· αφανιζουσιν γαρ τα προσωπα αυτων οπως φανωσιν τοις ανθρωποις νηστευοντες· αμην λεγω υμιν οτι απεχουσιν τον μισθον αυτων.

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

συ δε νηστευων αλειψαι σου την κεφαλην και το προσωπον σου νιψαι,

18so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

οπως μη φανης τοις ανθρωποις νηστευων, αλλα τω πατρι σου τω εν τω κρυπτω, και ο πατηρ σου ο βλεπων εν τω κρυπτω αποδωσει σοι [εν τω φανερω].

19'Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;

μη θησαυριζετε υμιν θησαυρους επι της γης, οπου σης και βρωσις αφανιζει, και οπου κλεπται διορυσσουσιν και κλεπτουσιν·

20but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

θησαυριζετε δε υμιν θησαυρους εν ουρανω, οπου ουτε σης ουτε βρωσις αφανιζει, και οπου κλεπται ου διορυσσουσιν ουδε κλεπτουσιν·

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

οπου γαρ εστιν ο θησαυρος υμων, εκει εσται και η καρδια υμων.

22'The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light.

ο λυχνος του σωματος εστιν ο οφθαλμος· εαν ουν ο οφθαλμος σου απλους η, ολον το σωμα σου φωτεινον εσται·

23But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

εαν δε ο οφθαλμος σου πονηρος η, ολον το σωμα σου σκοτεινον εσται. ει ουν το φως το εν σοι σκοτος εστιν, το σκοτος ποσον;

24'No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

ουδεις δυναται δυσιν κυριοις δουλευειν· η γαρ τον ενα μισησει και τον ετερον αγαπησει, η ενος ανθεξεται και του ετερου καταφρονησει. ου δυνασθε θεω δουλευειν και μαμωνα.

25'Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?

δια τουτο λεγω υμιν, μη μεριμνατε τη ψυχη υμων τι φαγητε και τι πιητε, μηδε τω σωματι υμων τι ενδυσησθε· ουχι η ψυχη πλειον εστιν της τροφης και το σωμα του ενδυματος;

26Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

εμβλεψατε εις τα πετεινα του ουρανου, οτι ου σπειρουσιν ουδε θεριζουσιν ουδε συναγουσιν εις αποθηκας, και ο πατηρ υμων ο ουρανιος τρεφει αυτα· ουχ υμεις μαλλον διαφερετε αυτων;

27Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

τις δε εξ υμων μεριμνων δυναται προσθειναι επι την ηλικιαν αυτου πηχυν ενα;

28'So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;

και περι ενδυματος τι μεριμνατε; καταμαθετε τα κρινα του αγρου πως αυξανει· ου κοπια ουδε νηθει·

29and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

λεγω δε υμιν οτι ουδε σολομων εν παση τη δοξη αυτου περιεβαλετο ως εν τουτων.

30Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

ει δε τον χορτον του αγρου, σημερον οντα και αυριον εις κλιβανον βαλλομενον, ο θεος ουτως αμφιεννυσιν, ου πολλω μαλλον υμας, ολιγοπιστοι;

31'Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'

μη ουν μεριμνησητε λεγοντες, τι φαγωμεν η τι πιωμεν η τι περιβαλωμεθα;

32For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

παντα γαρ ταυτα τα εθνη επιζητει· οιδεν γαρ ο πατηρ υμων ο ουρανιος οτι χρηζετε τουτων απαντων.

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

ζητειτε δε πρωτον την βασιλειαν του θεου και την δικαιοσυνην αυτου, και ταυτα παντα προστεθησεται υμιν.

34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

μη ουν μεριμνησητε εις την αυριον· η γαρ αυριον μεριμνησει τα εαυτης· αρκετον τη ημερα η κακια αυτης.
