Ye have heard that it was said to the men of antient times, "Thou shalt do no murder;" and whosoever shall commit murder, shall be liable to the judgment: but I say unto you, That every man who is angry with his brother without cause, shall be liable to the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrim: but whosever shall say, Thou fool, shall be liable to be cast into hell fire.

Again ye have heard that it was said to those of old, "Thou shalt not perjure thyself, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths:" But I say to thee, Swear not at all; neither by the heaven; for it is the throne of God: nor by the earth; for it is the footstool of his feet: nor by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King:read more.

Therefore when thou givest alms, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues, and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Verily I say unto you, They receive their reward. But when thou givest alms, let not thy right hand know what thy left is doing: that thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret, will himself reward thee openly.

And when thou prayest, be not as the hypocrites: for they love standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets, to pray, that they may make a shew to men. Verily I say unto you, That they have their reward. But when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and shut thy door, to pray to 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 the rust and canker spoil, and where thieves dig through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither rust nor canker spoil, and where thieves do not dig through and steal; for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

No man can serve two masters: for he will either hate the one, and love the other; or he will adhere to the one, and disregard the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. For this cause I tell you, Be not anxious about your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor for your body, what ye shall put on.

Are you not of more value than they?read more.
But which of you, by his cares, can add one cubit to his stature? And why are ye anxious about clothing? Contemplate the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, nor spin: yet I tell you, Not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these. If God then so clothe a vegetable of the field, which to-day is, [in beauty], and tomorrow is cast into the furnace, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Wherefore be under no anxiety, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, With what shall we be clothed? (for after all these things the heathen seek:) and your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of them all. But seek ye, in the first place, the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be given you over. Be not therefore anxious about to-morrow: for tomorrow will provide for its own wants. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.

Then said he to his disciples, For this reason I tell you, Be under no anxiety about your life, what ye shall eat, nor for your body, how ye shall be clothed. The life is more than food, and the body than raiment. Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have neither storehouse nor barn; yet God feedeth them: how much are ye more excellent than the birds?read more.
Which of you, with all his anxiety, can add one moment to his life? If therefore ye are unable to do the least thing, why are ye anxious about the others? Observe the lillies how they grow up, they toil not, nor spin; but I tell you, that Solomon in all his glory, was not arrayed like one of these. If God then so clothe the grass in the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is thrown into the furnace; how much more you, O ye of little faith? So then be not ye inquisitive what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, nor be agitated with restless anxiety. For after all these things are the nations of the world seeking; and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But seek ye the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be given you over.

JUDGE not, that ye be not judged. For with the same judgment ye judge others, shall ye be judged: and with the measure ye mete, shall it be measured to you again.

And why spiest thou out the mote which is in thy brother's eye, yet payest no attention to the beam which is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Suffer me to take the mote off from thine eye: and behold there is a beam in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, take first the beam out of thine own eye and then shalt thou see clearly to take off the mote from thy brother's eye.

But why beholdest thou the mote which is in thy brother's eye, but observest not the beam which is in thine own eye? Or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, permit me to take off the mote which is on thine eye, not seeing thyself the beam in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite! cast out the beam which is in thine eye, and then shalt thou see distinctly to take off the mote which is in thy brother's eye.

And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one who asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

What man is there of you, of whom if his son ask a loaf, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, evil as ye are, know how to bestow good gifts on your children; how much more will your Father who is in heaven, bestow good things on those who ask him?read more.
All things therefore whatsoever ye would be willing that men should do to you, just so do ye to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

For what father of you, if his son ask a loaf, will he give him a stone? or if a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? or if he ask also an egg, will he give him a scorpion? If ye then, evil as ye are, know how to give good gifts to your children; how much more shall your Father, who is in heaven, give his Holy Spirit to those who ask him?

Thus then pray ye: Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.read more.

And he said unto them, When ye pray say, Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name: thy kingdom come: thy will be done as in heaven so upon earth. Give us our necessary food, day by day: and forgive us our sins, for we also forgive every one who is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation; but deliver us from the wicked one.

Not every one who saith to me, Lord, Lord! shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Take heed then of false prophets, who come to you in the garb of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather a bunch of grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? So every good tree beareth good fruits; but every bad tree in kind, produceth bad fruits.read more.
A good tree cannot produce bad fruits, neither can a tree bad in kind produce good fruits. Every tree that beareth not good fruit, is cut down, and cast into the fire. Well then! by their fruits ye shall know them.

Every one who cometh to me, and heareth my words, and puts them in practice, I will shew you to whom he is like: he is like to a man, building a house, who digged, and sunk deep, and laid the foundation on a rock; and when there was a flood, the river rushed violently against that house, and was not of force to shake it, for it was founded on a rock. But he that heareth, and doth not practice, is like a man who built his house on the earth without a foundation; against which the river rushed violently, and immediately it fell; and the crash of the fall of that house was great.

And it was so, that when Jesus had concluded all these sayings, the multitudes were exceedingly struck with his teaching: for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
