马太福音 6
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
施捨不可張揚
6 “你們小心，不要在眾人面前行你們的義，讓他們看見；如果這樣，就得不到你們天父的賞賜。 2 因此你施捨的時候，不可到處張揚，好像偽君子在會堂和街上所作的一樣，以博取眾人的稱讚。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。 3 你施捨的時候，不要讓左手知道右手所作的， 4 好使你的施捨是在隱密中行的。你父在隱密中察看，必定報答你。
如何禱告(A)
5 “你們祈禱的時候，不可像偽君子；他們喜歡在會堂和路口站著祈禱，好讓人看見。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。 6 但你祈禱的時候，要進到密室裡去，關上門，向在隱密中的父祈禱。你父在隱密中察看，必定報答你。 7 你們祈禱的時候，不可重複無意義的話，像教外人一樣，他們以為話多了就蒙垂聽。 8 你們不可像他們，因為在你們祈求以先，你們的父已經知道你們的需要了。 9 所以你們要這樣祈禱：
‘我們在天上的父，
願你的名被尊為聖，
10 願你的國降臨，
願你的旨意成就在地上，
如同在天上一樣。
11 我們每天所需的食物，
求你今天賜給我們；
12 赦免我們的罪債，
好像我們饒恕了得罪我們的人；
13 不要讓我們陷入試探，
救我們脫離那惡者。’（有些後期抄本在此有“因為國度、權柄、榮耀，全是你的，直到永遠。阿們”一句）
14 如果你們饒恕別人的過犯，你們的天父也必饒恕你們。 15 如果你們不饒恕別人，你們的父也必不饒恕你們的過犯。
禁食不讓人知
16 “你們禁食的時候，不可像偽君子那樣愁眉苦臉，他們裝成難看的樣子，叫人看出他們在禁食。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。 17 可是你禁食的時候，要梳頭洗臉， 18 不要叫人看出你在禁食，只讓在隱密中的父看見。你父在隱密中察看，必定報答你。
積財於天(B)
19 “不可為自己在地上積聚財寶，因為地上有蟲蛀，有鏽侵蝕，也有賊挖洞來偷。 20 要為自己積聚財寶在天上，那裡沒有蟲蛀鏽蝕，也沒有賊挖洞來偷。 21 你的財寶在哪裡，你的心也在哪裡。
裡面的光(C)
22 “眼睛就是身體的燈。如果你的眼睛健全，全身就都明亮； 23 如果你的眼睛有毛病，全身就都黑暗。如果你裡面的光變成黑暗，這是多麼的黑暗！
不要為明天憂慮(D)
24 “一個人不能服事兩個主人；他若不是恨這個愛那個，就是忠於這個輕視那個。你們不能服事 神，又服事金錢（“金錢”亞蘭文是“瑪門”）。 25 所以我告訴你們，不要為生命憂慮吃甚麼喝甚麼，也不要為身體憂慮穿甚麼。難道生命不比食物重要嗎？身體不比衣服重要嗎？ 26 你們看天空的飛鳥：牠們不撒種，不收割，也不收進倉裡，你們的天父尚且養活牠們；難道你們不比牠們更寶貴嗎？ 27 你們中間誰能用憂慮使自己的壽命延長一刻呢？ 28 何必為衣服憂慮呢？試想田野的百合花怎樣生長，它們不勞苦，也不紡織。 29 但我告訴你們，就是所羅門最威榮的時候所穿的，也比不上這花中的一朵。 30 田野的草，今天還在，明天就投進爐裡， 神尚且這樣妝扮它們；小信的人哪，何況你們呢？ 31 所以不要憂慮，說：‘我們該吃甚麼？喝甚麼？穿甚麼？’ 32 這些都是教外人所尋求的，你們的天父原知道你們需要這一切。 33 你們要先求他的國和他的義，這一切都必加給你們。 34 所以不要為明天憂慮，因為明天自有明天的憂慮，一天的難處一天當就夠了。”
Matthew 6
English Standard Version
Giving to the Needy
6 “Beware of (A)practicing your righteousness before other people in order (B)to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
2 (C)“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 (D)be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have (E)received their reward. 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. (F)And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
The Lord's Prayer
5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love (G)to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. (H)Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 6 But when you pray, (I)go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. (J)And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
7 “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as (K)the Gentiles do, for (L)they think that they will be heard (M)for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, (N)for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 (O)Pray then like this:
(P)“Our Father in heaven,
(Q)hallowed be (R)your name.[a]
10 (S)Your kingdom come,
(T)your will be done,[b]
(U)on earth as it is in heaven.
11 (V)Give us (W)this day our daily bread,[c]
12 and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And (X)lead us not into temptation,
but (Y)deliver us from (Z)evil.[d]
14 (AA)For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 (AB)but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Fasting
16 “And (AC)when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. (AD)Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 17 But when you fast, (AE)anoint your head and wash your face, 18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. (AF)And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Lay Up Treasures in Heaven
19 (AG)“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where (AH)moth and rust[e] destroy and where thieves (AI)break in and steal, 20 (AJ)but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
22 (AK)“The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, 23 (AL)but if (AM)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!
24 (AN)“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 (AO)money.[f]
Do Not Be Anxious
25 (AP)“Therefore I tell you, (AQ)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? 26 (AR)Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. (AS)Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his (AT)span of life?[g] 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, (AU)even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 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, (AV)O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For (AW)the Gentiles seek after all these things, and (AX)your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But (AY)seek first (AZ)the kingdom of God and his righteousness, (BA)and all these things will be added to you.
34 (BB)“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

New King James Version
Do Good to Please God
6 “Take 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. 2 Therefore, (A)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. 3 But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret (B)will Himself reward you [a]openly.
The Model Prayer(C)
5 “And when you pray, you shall not be like the [b]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. 6 But you, when you pray, (D)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 [c]openly. 7 And when you pray, (E)do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. (F)For they think that they will be heard for their many words.
8 “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father (G)knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. 9 In this (H)manner, therefore, pray:
(I)Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your (J)name.
10 Your kingdom come.
(K)Your will be done
On earth (L)as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our (M)daily bread.
12 And (N)forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
13 (O)And do not lead us into temptation,
But (P)deliver us from the evil one.
[d]For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
14 (Q)“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But (R)if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Fasting to Be Seen Only by God
16 “Moreover, (S)when you fast, do not be like the [e]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. 17 But you, when you fast, (T)anoint your head and wash your face, 18 so 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 [f]openly.
Lay Up Treasures in Heaven(U)
19 (V)“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 (W)but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
The Lamp of the Body(X)
22 (Y)“The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is [g]good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is [h]bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
You Cannot Serve God and Riches
24 (Z)“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. (AA)You cannot serve God and [i]mammon.
Do Not Worry(AB)
25 “Therefore I say to you, (AC)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? 26 (AD)Look 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? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one [j]cubit to his [k]stature?
28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not [l]arrayed like one of these. 30 Now 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?
31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But (AE)seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
Fare l'elemosina in segreto
6 Guardatevi dal praticare le vostre buone opere davanti agli uomini per essere da loro ammirati, altrimenti non avrete ricompensa presso il Padre vostro che è nei cieli. 2 Quando dunque fai l'elemosina, non suonare la tromba davanti a te, come fanno gli ipocriti nelle sinagoghe e nelle strade per essere lodati dagli uomini. In verità vi dico: hanno gia ricevuto la loro ricompensa. 3 Quando invece tu fai l'elemosina, non sappia la tua sinistra ciò che fa la tua destra, 4 perché la tua elemosina resti segreta; e il Padre tuo, che vede nel segreto, ti ricompenserà.
Pregare in segreto
5 Quando pregate, non siate simili agli ipocriti che amano pregare stando ritti nelle sinagoghe e negli angoli delle piazze, per essere visti dagli uomini. In verità vi dico: hanno gia ricevuto la loro ricompensa. 6 Tu invece, quando preghi, entra nella tua camera e, chiusa la porta, prega il Padre tuo nel segreto; e il Padre tuo, che vede nel segreto, ti ricompenserà.
La vera preghiera. Il Pater
7 Pregando poi, non sprecate parole come i pagani, i quali credono di venire ascoltati a forza di parole. 8 Non siate dunque come loro, perché il Padre vostro sa di quali cose avete bisogno ancor prima che gliele chiediate. 9 Voi dunque pregate così:
Padre nostro che sei nei cieli,
sia santificato il tuo nome;
10 venga il tuo regno;
sia fatta la tua volontà,
come in cielo così in terra.
11 Dacci oggi il nostro pane quotidiano,
12 e rimetti a noi i nostri debiti
come noi li rimettiamo ai nostri debitori,
13 e non ci indurre in tentazione,
ma liberaci dal male.
14 Se voi infatti perdonerete agli uomini le loro colpe, il Padre vostro celeste perdonerà anche a voi; 15 ma se voi non perdonerete agli uomini, neppure il Padre vostro perdonerà le vostre colpe.
Digiunare in segreto
16 E quando digiunate, non assumete aria malinconica come gli ipocriti, che si sfigurano la faccia per far vedere agli uomini che digiunano. In verità vi dico: hanno gia ricevuto la loro ricompensa.
17 Tu invece, quando digiuni, profumati la testa e lavati il volto, 18 perché la gente non veda che tu digiuni, ma solo tuo Padre che è nel segreto; e il Padre tuo, che vede nel segreto, ti ricompenserà.
Il vero tesoro
19 Non accumulatevi tesori sulla terra, dove tignola e ruggine consumano e dove ladri scassinano e rubano; 20 accumulatevi invece tesori nel cielo, dove né tignola né ruggine consumano, e dove ladri non scassinano e non rubano. 21 Perché là dov'è il tuo tesoro, sarà anche il tuo cuore.
L'occhio lucerna del corpo
22 La lucerna del corpo è l'occhio; se dunque il tuo occhio è chiaro, tutto il tuo corpo sarà nella luce; 23 ma se il tuo occhio è malato, tutto il tuo corpo sarà tenebroso. Se dunque la luce che è in te è tenebra, quanto grande sarà la tenebra!
Dio e il denaro
24 Nessuno può servire a due padroni: o odierà l'uno e amerà l'altro, o preferirà l'uno e disprezzerà l'altro: non potete servire a Dio e a mammona.
Abbandonarsi alla Provvidenza
25 Perciò vi dico: per la vostra vita non affannatevi di quello che mangerete o berrete, e neanche per il vostro corpo, di quello che indosserete; la vita forse non vale più del cibo e il corpo più del vestito? 26 Guardate gli uccelli del cielo: non seminano, né mietono, né ammassano nei granai; eppure il Padre vostro celeste li nutre. Non contate voi forse più di loro? 27 E chi di voi, per quanto si dia da fare, può aggiungere un'ora sola alla sua vita? 28 E perché vi affannate per il vestito? Osservate come crescono i gigli del campo: non lavorano e non filano. 29 Eppure io vi dico che neanche Salomone, con tutta la sua gloria, vestiva come uno di loro. 30 Ora se Dio veste così l'erba del campo, che oggi c'è e domani verrà gettata nel forno, non farà assai più per voi, gente di poca fede? 31 Non affannatevi dunque dicendo: Che cosa mangeremo? Che cosa berremo? Che cosa indosseremo? 32 Di tutte queste cose si preoccupano i pagani; il Padre vostro celeste infatti sa che ne avete bisogno. 33 Cercate prima il regno di Dio e la sua giustizia, e tutte queste cose vi saranno date in aggiunta. 34 Non affannatevi dunque per il domani, perché il domani avrà gia le sue inquietudini. A ciascun giorno basta la sua pena.
