Matteus 6:22-24
Svenska Folkbibeln
Ögat är kroppens ljus
22 Ögat är kroppens ljus. Om ditt öga är friskt, får hela din kropp ljus. 23 Men är ditt öga sjukt, ligger hela din kropp i mörker. Om nu ljuset i dig är mörker, hur djupt är då inte mörkret!
Gud eller mammon
24 Ingen kan tjäna två herrar. Antingen kommer han då att hata den ene och älska den andre, eller kommer han att hålla sig till den ene och se ner på den andre. Ni kan inte tjäna både Gud och mammon.[a]

King James Version
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.
