< Matthew 6 >

1 Take care not to perform your religious duties in public in order to be seen by others; if you do, your Father who is in Heaven has no reward for you.
ⲁ̅ϯϩⲧⲏⲧⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲛϯ ⲉⲧⲙⲁⲁϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲏⲧⲛⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧϩⲛ ⲙⲡⲏⲩⲉ
2 Therefore, when you do acts of charity, do not have a trumpet blown in front of you, as hypocrites do in the Synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. There, I tell you, is their reward!
ⲃ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ϭⲉ ⲕϣⲁⲛⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲛⲁ ⲙⲡⲣⲱϣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲕϩⲏ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲛϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛϩⲓⲣ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉϫⲓⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϫⲓ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲃⲉⲕⲉ
3 But, when you do acts of charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
ⲅ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲕⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲛⲁ ⲙⲡⲣⲧⲣⲉⲧⲉⲕϩⲃⲟⲩⲣ ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉ ⲧⲉⲕⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ
4 so that your charity may be secret; and your Father, who sees what is in secret, will recompense you.

5 And, when you pray, you are not to behave as hypocrites do. They like to pray standing in the Synagogues and at the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. There, I tell you, is their reward!
ⲉ̅ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲛⲛⲓϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲙⲉ ⲛⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲛ ⲛⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲕⲗϫⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲡⲗⲁⲧⲓⲁ ⲉϣⲗⲏⲗ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϫⲓ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲃⲉⲕⲉ
6 But, when one of you prays, let him go into his own room, shut the door, and pray to his Father who dwells in secret; and his Father, who sees what is secret, will recompense him.
ⲋ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲕⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲧⲁⲙⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲅϣⲧⲁⲙ ⲙⲡⲉⲕⲣⲟ ⲛⲅϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧϩⲙ ⲡⲡⲉⲑⲏⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲕⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧϭⲱϣⲧ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ϩⲙ ⲡⲡⲉⲑⲏⲡ ϥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲱⲃⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ
7 When praying, do not repeat the same words over and over again, as is done by the Gentiles, who think that by using many words they will obtain a hearing.
ⲍ̅ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲣϩⲁϩ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲛⲛⲓϩⲉⲑⲛⲓⲕⲟⲥ ⲉⲩⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲩⲙⲛⲧϩⲁϩ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ
8 Do not imitate them; for God, your Father, knows what you need before you ask him.

9 You, therefore, should pray thus — ‘Our Father, who art in Heaven, may thy name be held holy,
ⲑ̅ⲧⲁⲓ ϭⲉ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧϩⲛ ⲙⲡⲏⲩⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲡⲉⲕⲣⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲡ

11 Give us to-day the bread that we shall need;

12 and forgive us our wrong-doings, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us;

13 and take us not into temptation, but deliver us from Evil.’

14 For, if you forgive others their offences, your heavenly Father will forgive you also;
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲁⲛⲕⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϥⲛⲁⲕⲱ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧϩⲛ ⲙⲡⲏⲩⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲛⲟⲃⲉ
15 but, if you do not forgive others their offences, not even your Father will forgive your offences.

16 And, when you fast, do not put on gloomy looks, as hypocrites do who disfigure their faces that they may be seen by men to be fasting. That, I tell you, is their reward!
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲛⲏⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲣϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲛⲛⲓϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲩⲟⲕⲙ ⲥⲉⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϩⲟ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲩⲛⲏⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϫⲓ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲃⲉⲕⲉ
17 But, when one of you fasts, let him anoint his head and wash his face,

18 that he may not be seen by men to be fasting, but by his Father who dwells in secret; and his Father, who sees what is secret, will recompense him.

19 Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

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

22 The lamp of the body is the eye. If your eye is unclouded, your whole body will be lit up;

23 but, if your eye is diseased, your whole body will be darkened. And, if the inner light is darkness, how intense must that darkness be!

24 No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate one and love the other, or else he will attach himself to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.

25 That is why I say to you, Do not be anxious about your life here — what you can get to eat or drink; nor yet about your body — what you can get to wear. Is not life more than food, and the body than its clothing?

26 Look at the wild birds — they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and yet your heavenly Father feeds them! And are not you more precious than they?

28 And why be anxious about clothing? Study the wild lilies, and how they grow. They neither toil nor spin;

30 If God so clothes even the grass of the field, which is living to-day and to-morrow will be thrown into the oven, will not he much more clothe you, O men of little faith?

34 Therefore do not be anxious about to-morrow, for to-morrow will bring its own anxieties. Every day has trouble enough of its own.
