马太福音 6
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
论周济穷人
6 “你们要小心，行善的时候不可张扬，故意叫人看见，否则就不能得你们天父的赏赐了。
2 “因此，周济穷人的时候，不要大吹大擂，像那些伪君子在会堂和街市上所行的一样，以博取人们的赞赏。我实在告诉你们，他们得到的赏赐仅此而已。 3 你们周济穷人的时候，右手所做的别叫左手知道， 4 要不声不响地去做。这样，鉴察隐秘事的天父必赏赐你们。
论祷告
5 “你们祷告时，不要像伪君子那样。他们喜欢站在会堂里和十字路口上公开祷告，故意让人看见。我实在告诉你们，他们得到的赏赐不过是人的赞赏。 6 你们祷告的时候，要进入内室，关上门，向你们肉眼看不见的父祈祷，鉴察隐秘事的父必赏赐你们。
7 “你们祷告时不可像外族人那样喋喋不休，他们以为长篇大论，就必蒙上帝垂听。 8 不可像他们那样，因为在你们祷告以前，你们的父已经知道你们的需要了。
9 “你们应当这样祷告，
“‘我们天上的父，
愿人们都尊崇你的圣名，
10 愿你的国度降临，
愿你的旨意在地上成就，就像在天上成就一样。
11 求你今天赐给我们日用的饮食。
12 饶恕我们的罪，
就像我们饶恕了得罪我们的人。
13 不要让我们遇见诱惑，
救我们脱离那恶者。
因为国度、权柄、荣耀都是你的，直到永远。阿们！’
14 “如果你们饶恕别人的过犯，你们的天父也必饶恕你们的过犯。 15 如果你们不饶恕别人的过犯，你们的天父也不会饶恕你们的过犯。
论禁食
16 “你们禁食的时候，不要像伪君子那样愁眉苦脸，因为他们故意蓬头垢面，好让别人知道他们在禁食。我实在告诉你们，他们得到的赏赐不过是人的赞赏。 17 你禁食的时候要梳头洗脸， 18 不叫人们看出你在禁食，只让你肉眼看不见的父知道，鉴察隐秘事的父必赏赐你。
论积财
19 “不要为自己在世上积攒财宝，世上有虫子咬，会生锈，又有贼闯进来偷。 20 你们要把财宝积攒在天上，天上没有虫子咬，不会生锈，也没有贼闯进来偷。 21 要知道，你的财宝在哪里，你的心也在哪里。
22 “眼睛是身上的灯。如果你的眼睛明亮，全身都光明； 23 要是你的眼睛昏花[a]，全身就黑暗。如果你里面的光黑暗了，那黑暗是多么大啊！
24 “一个人不能服侍两位主人，因为他不是恨这位、爱那位，就是重这位、轻那位。你们不能又事奉上帝，又崇拜金钱。
不要忧虑衣食
25 “所以我告诉你们，不要为生活忧虑，如吃什么、喝什么，也不要为身体忧虑，如穿什么。难道生命不比饮食重要吗？身体不比穿着重要吗？
26 “你们看天上的飞鸟，它们不种，不收，也不在仓里积存粮食，你们的天父尚且养活它们，难道你们还不如飞鸟贵重吗？ 27 你们谁能用忧虑使自己多活片刻呢？
28 “何必为穿着忧虑呢？你们看看野地的百合花是如何生长的，它们既不劳苦，也不纺织。 29 但我告诉你们，就连所罗门王最显赫时的穿戴还不如一朵百合花！ 30 你们的信心太小了！野地里的草今天还在，明天就丢在炉中化为灰烬，上帝还这样装扮它们，何况你们呢？ 31 所以，你们不要忧虑‘吃什么？喝什么？穿什么？’ 32 因为这些都是外族人的追求，你们的天父知道你们的需要。
33 “你们要先寻求上帝的国和祂的义，这一切都会赐给你们。 34 所以，不要为明天忧虑，因为明天自有明天的忧虑，一天的难处一天担就够了。

馬 太 福 音 6
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
耶稣谈施舍
6 “要当心，你们不要为了让人看见而当着人们的面做好事。如果你们这样做，从天父那里就得不到任何的奖赏。
2 当你向穷人施舍时，不要像那些虚伪的人那样，不要大吹大擂，他们在会堂里和大街上所做的，是为了得到别人的称赞。我实话告诉你们，他们已经得到了足够的报偿。 3 当你向穷人施舍时，不要让你的左手知道右手在干什么。（不要让任何人，甚至是你的朋友知道你在做什么。） 4 要在暗中给予，那么，你的天父看到暗中所做的一切，是会报偿你的。
耶稣谈祈祷
5 “你们祈祷的时候，不要像虚伪的人那样，他们喜欢站在会堂里和大街上祈祷，以便别人都看得见。我实话告诉你们，他们已经得到了足够的报偿。 6 当你祈祷的时候，应该走进房间，关上门，悄悄地向隐秘中的天父祈祷，你的天父看到在隐秘中所做的这一切是会报偿你的。
7 “祈祷的时候，不要像非教徒那样，喋喋不休地重复着那些毫无意义的话。他们以为说的话多，上帝就会垂听。 8 千万不要学他们的样子，因为，在你们还没有开口请求之前，天父就已经知道你们需要什么了。 9 你们应该这样祈祷：
‘我们在天的父，
愿您的名字永保神圣，
10 愿您的天国降临，
愿您的旨意，
就像在天上一样，
在地上也得以实现。
11 请赐给我们日常需要的食物，
12 请宽恕我们的罪过，
就像我们也宽恕那些亏待我们的人一样。
13 请不要让我们受到诱惑，
解救我们摆脱那个邪恶者。（魔鬼）’ [a]
14 如果你们宽恕别人的过错，你们在天之父也会宽恕你们的过错。 15 如果你们不宽恕别人，你们在天之父也不会宽恕你们的过错。
耶稣谈禁食
16 “你们禁食 [b]的时候，不要像那些虚伪的人，做出一副愁眉苦脸的样子。他们装出一脸苦相，为的是让众人都知道他们在禁食。我实话告诉你们，他们已经得到了足够的报偿。 17 你禁食的时候，要梳齐头发，洗干净脸， 18 不要让别人看出来你在禁食。你看不见的天父将会看到在隐秘中所做的这一切，他会报偿你的。
不能侍奉两个主人
19 “不要在尘世为自己积蓄财宝，世间的财宝会被虫蛀锈蚀，还会被破门而入的盗贼偷窃， 20 要在天堂里为自己积蓄财富，在那里不会被虫蛀锈蚀，也不会被强盗偷走。 21 你们的财宝在哪里，你们的心也会在那里。
22 “眼睛是身体的一盏明灯，如果你的眼睛是健康的，你的整个身体就会充满光明； 23 如果你的眼睛有病，那么你的整个身体也就陷入了黑暗。如果你内心仅有的光明实际上只是一片黑暗，那黑暗该是多么漫无边际啊！
24 “你们不能同时服侍两个主人，你们会恨这个，爱那个；或者忠诚一个，轻视另一个，你们不可能同时既侍奉上帝、又侍奉金钱。
把上帝的天国放在第一位
25 “因此，我告诉你们，不要为维持生活的饮食操心，也不要为蔽体的衣服操心。生命胜过你们吃的食物，你们的身体胜过你们穿的衣服。 26 看看天空中飞翔的鸟吧，它们不播种、不收获，也不存粮入库，而你们的天父却喂养着它们，你们难道不比这些鸟贵重得多吗？ 27 你们中间，又有谁会因为操心而使自己的寿命延长一小时呢？
28 “你们为什么要为衣服操心呢？看一看原野上的野花吧，看它们是怎样生长的。它们既不为自己劳作，也不为自己纺衣。 29 我告诉你们，尽管所罗门是荣华显赫的君王，可是，他的衣着却依旧比不上这些野花中的任何一朵美丽。 30 虽然这些花草今朝生机昂然，明天将被投进火炉烧掉，但上帝还如此精心地装饰着它们，那么，上帝难道不会更加装饰你们吗？你们这些缺乏信仰的人！ 31 所以，不要忧心忡忡地问∶‘我们吃什么呀？我们喝什么呀？我们穿什么呀？’ 32 这是那些不知道上帝的人总惦记的事，不要忧虑，因为你们在天之父知道你们需要这一切。 33 你们首先应该关心上帝的王国和他认为是正确和美好的事情，他就会另外赐给你们其它所需要的一切。 34 不要为明天担心， 明天自有明天的烦恼，今天的烦恼已经够多的。

Matthew 6
King James Version
6 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in 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 lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be 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. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Matthew 6
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.
