the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. For if ye
forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will
also forgive you : but if ye forgive not men their tres-
passes, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
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. But thou, when thou
fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face ; that thou
appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father who is
in secret : and thy Father, who seeth in secret, shall
reward thee openly.
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where
moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves'break
through and steal : but lay up for yourselves treasures in
heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and
where thieves do not break through nor steal : for where
your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The light
•of the body is the eye : if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light. 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 !
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. Therefore I say unto you,
Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or
what ye shall drink ; nor yet for you-s body, what ye shall
put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body
than raiment ? Behold the fowls of the air : for they sow
not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns ; yet your
forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will
also forgive you : but if ye forgive not men their tres-
passes, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
