Matthew 6

English Standard Version

1 “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. (Mt 6:16; Mt 23:5; 1Jo 2:29)2 “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. (Lu 6:24; Joh 5:44; 1Co 13:3)3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,4 so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. (Mt 6:6; Mt 6:18)5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. (Mt 6:2; Mt 6:16; Mr 11:25; Lu 18:11)6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. (2Ki 4:33; Isa 26:20; Mt 6:4; Mt 6:18)7 “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. (1Ki 18:26; Pr 10:19; Ec 5:2; Mt 5:47; Mt 6:32)8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. (Mt 6:32)9 Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.[1] (Isa 29:23; Mt 6:1; Lu 1:49; Lu 11:2; Joh 17:6; 1Pe 3:15)10 Your kingdom come, your will be done,[2] on earth as it is in heaven. (Ps 103:20; Da 4:35; Mt 3:2; Mt 4:17; Mt 12:50; Mt 26:42; Lu 22:42; Ac 21:14; Heb 13:21)11 Give us this day our daily bread,[3] (Pr 30:8; Mt 6:34)12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.[4] (Mt 13:19; Mt 26:41; Mr 14:38; Lu 22:40; Lu 22:46; Joh 17:15; 1Co 10:13; 2Th 3:3; 2Ti 4:18)14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, (Mr 11:25; Lu 6:37; Eph 4:32; Col 3:13)15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. (Mt 18:35; Jas 2:13)16 “And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. (Isa 58:5; Mt 6:2; Mt 6:5)17 But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, (Ru 3:3; 2Sa 12:20)18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. (Mt 6:4; Mt 6:6)19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust[5] destroy and where thieves break in and steal, (Mt 19:21; Mt 24:43; Lu 12:21; Lu 12:33; Lu 18:22; 1Ti 6:9; 1Ti 6:17; Heb 13:5; Jas 5:2)20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. (Mt 6:19)21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, (Lu 11:34)23 but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! (De 15:9; Pr 28:22; Mt 6:22; Mt 20:15)24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.[6] (Lu 16:9; Lu 16:11; Lu 16:13; Ro 6:16; Jas 4:4)25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious 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? (Mt 6:27; Mt 6:31; Mt 6:34; Mt 10:19; Mt 13:22; Lu 12:22; 1Co 7:32; Php 4:6; 1Pe 5:7)26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? (Job 38:41; Ps 147:9; Mt 10:31)27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[7] (Lu 2:52)28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. (1Ki 10:4)30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? (Mt 8:26; Mt 14:31; Mt 16:8; Mt 17:20)31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. (Mt 6:7; Mt 6:8)33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (1Ki 3:11; Mt 5:6; Mt 5:20; Mt 6:10; Mr 10:29; 1Ti 4:8; 1Pe 3:9)34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. (Jas 4:13)

الكتاب المقدس

1 احْذَرُوا مِنْ أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا الْخَيْرَ أَمَامَ النَّاسِ بِقَصْدِ أَنْ يَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْكُمْ. وَإلَّا، فَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ مُكَافَأَةٌ عِنْدَ أَبِيكُمُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ.2 فَإِذَا تَصَدَّقْتَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ، فَلا تَنْفُخْ أَمَامَكَ فِي الْبُوقِ، كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْمُنَافِقُونَ فِي الْمَجَامِعِ وَالشَّوَارِعِ، لِيَمْدَحَهُمُ النَّاسُ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.3 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تَتَصَدَّقُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ، فَلا تَدَعْ يَدَكَ الْيُسْرَى تَعْرِفُ مَا تَفْعَلُهُ الْيُمْنَى.4 لِتَكُونَ صَدَقَتُكَ فِي الْخَفَاءِ، وَأَبُوكَ السَّمَاوِيُّ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.5 وَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلُّونَ، لَا تَكُونُوا مِثْلَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ الَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا وَاقِفِينَ فِي الْمَجَامِعِ وَفِي زَوَايَا الشَّوَارِعِ لِيَرَاهُمُ النَّاسُ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.6 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلِّي، فَادْخُلْ غُرْفَتَكَ، وَأَغْلِقِ الْبَابَ عَلَيْكَ، وَصَلِّ إِلَى أَبِيكَ الَّذِي فِي الْخَفَاءِ. وَأَبُوكَ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.7 وَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلُّونَ، لَا تُكَرِّرُوا كَلاماً فَارِغاً كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْوَثَنِيُّونَ، ظَنّاً مِنْهُمْ أَنَّهُ بِالإِكْثَارِ مِنَ الْكَلامِ، يُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ.8 فَلا تَكُونُوا مِثْلَهُمْ، لأَنَّ أَبَاكُمْ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَيْهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْأَلُوهُ.9 فَصَلُّوا أَنْتُمْ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الصَّلاةِ: أَبَانَا الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، لِيَتَقَدَّسِ اسْمُكَ!10 لِيَأْتِ مَلَكُوتُكَ! لِتَكُنْ مَشِيئَتُكَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كَمَا هِيَ فِي السَّمَاءِ!11 خُبْزَنَا كَفَافَنَا أَعْطِنَا الْيَوْمَ!12 وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا، كَمَا نَغْفِرُ نَحْنُ لِلْمُذْنِبِينَ إِلَيْنَا!13 وَلا تُدْخِلْنَا فِي تَجْرِبَةٍ، لَكِنْ نَجِّنَا مِنَ الشِّرِّيرِ، لأَنَّ لَكَ الْمُلْكَ وَالْقُوَّةَ وَالْمَجْدَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. آمِين.14 فَإِنْ غَفَرْتُمْ لِلنَّاسِ زَلّاتِهِمْ، يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ أَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ زَلّاتِكُمْ.15 وَإِنْ لَمْ تَغْفِرُوا لِلنَّاسِ، لَا يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ أَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ زَلّاتِكُمْ.16 وَعِنْدَمَا تَصُومُونَ، لَا تَكُونُوا عَابِسِي الْوُجُوهِ، الْمُنَافِقُونَ الَّذِينَ يُغَيِّرُونَ وُجُوهَهُمْ لِكَيْ يَظْهَرُوا لِلنَّاسِ صَائِمِينَ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.17 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تَصُمْ، فَاغْسِلْ وَجْهَكَ، وَعَطِّرْ رَأْسَكَ،18 لِكَيْ لَا تَظْهَرَ لِلنَّاسِ صَائِماً، بَلْ لأَبِيكَ الَّذِي فِي الْخَفَاءِ. وَأَبُوكَ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.19 لَا تَكْنِزُوا لَكُمْ كُنُوزاً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، حَيْثُ يُفْسِدُهَا السُّوسُ وَالصَّدَأُ، وَيَنْقُبُ عَنْهَا اللُّصُوصُ وَيَسْرِقُونَ.20 بَلِ اكْنِزُوا لَكُمْ كُنُوزاً فِي السَّمَاءِ، حَيْثُ لَا يُفْسِدُهَا سُوسٌ وَلا يَنْقُبُ عَنْهَا لُصُوصٌ وَلا يَسْرِقُونَ.21 فَحَيْثُ يَكُونُ كَنْزُكَ، هُنَاكَ أَيْضاً يَكُونُ قَلْبُكَ!22 الْعَيْنُ مِصْبَاحُ الْجَسَدِ. فَإِنْ كَانَتْ عَيْنُكَ سَلِيمَةً، يَكُونُ جَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ مُنَوَّراً.23 وَإِنْ كَانَتْ عَيْنُكَ سَيِّئَةً، يَكُونُ جَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ مُظْلِماً. فَإِذَا كَانَ النُّورُ الَّذِي فِيكَ ظَلاماً، فَمَا أَشَدَّ الظَّلامَ!24 لَا يُمْكِنُ لأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَبْداً لِسَيِّدَيْنِ: لأَنَّهُ إِمَّا أَنْ يُبْغِضَ أَحَدَهُمَا وَيُحِبَّ الآخَرَ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ يُلازِمَ أَحَدَهُمَا وَيَهْجُرَ الآخَرَ. لَا يُمْكِنُكُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا عَبِيداً لِلهِ وَالْمَالِ مَعاً.25 لِذلِكَ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَا تَهْتَمُّوا لِمَعِيشَتِكُمْ بِشَأْنِ مَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَمَا تَشْرَبُونَ، وَلا لأَجْسَادِكُمْ بِشَأْنِ مَا تَلْبَسُونَ. أَلَيْسَتِ الْحَيَاةُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ طَعَامٍ، وَالْجَسَدُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ كِسَاءٍ؟26 تَأَمَّلُوا طُيُورَ السَّمَاءِ: إِنَّهَا لَا تَزْرَعُ وَلا تَحْصُدُ وَلا تَجْمَعُ فِي مَخَازِنَ، وَأَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ يَعُولُهَا. أَفَلَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَفْضَلَ مِنْهَا كَثِيراً؟27 فَمَنْ مِنْكُمْ إِذَا حَمَلَ الْهُمُومَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطِيلَ عُمْرَهُ وَلَوْ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً؟28 وَلِمَاذَا تَحْمِلُونَ هَمَّ الْكِسَاءِ؟ تَأَمَّلُوا زَنَابِقَ الْحَقْلِ كَيْفَ تَنْمُو: إِنَّهَا لَا تَتْعَبُ وَلا تَغْزِلُ؛29 وَلَكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: حَتَّى سُلَيْمَانُ فِي قِمَّةِ مَجْدِهِ لَمْ يَلْبَسْ مَا يُعَادِلُ وَاحِدَةً مِنْهَا جَمَالاً!30 فَإِنْ كَانَ اللهُ هَكَذَا يُلْبِسُ الأَعْشَابَ الْبَرِّيَّةَ، مَعَ أَنَّهَا تُوْجَدُ الْيَوْمَ وَتُطْرَحُ غَداً فِي النَّارِ، أَفَلَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ، يَا قَلِيلِي الإِيمَانِ، أَوْلَى جِدّاً بِأَنْ يَكْسُوَكُمْ؟31 فَلا تَحْمِلُوا الْهَمَّ قَائِلِينَ: مَاذَا نَأْكُلُ؟ أَوْ: مَاذَا نَشْرَبُ؟ أَوْ: مَاذَا نَلْبَسُ؟32 فَهَذِهِ كُلُّهَا يَسْعَى إِلَيْهَا أَهْلُ الدُّنْيَا. فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمُ السَّمَاوِيَّ يَعْلَمُ حَاجَتَكُمْ إِلَى هَذِهِ كُلِّهَا.33 أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ، فَاطْلُبُوا أَوَّلاً مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ وَبِرَّهُ، وَهَذِهِ كُلُّهَا تُزَادُ لَكُمْ.34 لَا تَهْتَمُّوا بِأَمْرِ الْغَدِ، فَإِنَّ الْغَدَ يَهْتَمُّ بِأَمْرِ نَفْسِهِ. يَكْفِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مَا فِيهِ مِنْ سُوءٍ!
