Chap. VI.
In this second chapter of his Sermon, he Controwleth the Pharisees iustice (that is, their almes,
prayer, and fasting) for the scope and intention therof, which was vaine glorie. 19
Their end also was to be riche, but ours must not be so much as in necessaries.
1 Take good heede that you doe not your09Q0375 iustice
before men, to be seen of them: otherwise reward
you shall not haue with your father which is in
heauen.
2 Therfore when thou note doest an almes-deede, sound not
a trompet before thee, as the hypocrites doe in the Synagogues
and in the streetes, that they may be honoured of men:
Amen I say to you, they haue receiued their reward.
3 But
when thou doest an almes-deede, let not thy left hand know
vvhat thy right hand doeth:
4 that thy almes-deede may be in
secrete, and thy father vvhich seeth in secrete, vvil09Q0376 repay the. &cross4;
-- --
5 And vvhen ye note pray, you shal not be as the09Q0377 hypocrites,
that loue to stand & pray in the Synagogs and corners of the
streetes, that they may be seen of men: Amen I say to you, they
haue receiued their revvard.
6 But thou vvhen thou shalt pray,
enter into thy chamber, & hauing shut the doore, pray to thy
father in secrete: and thy father vvhich seeth in secrete, vvil
repay thee.
7 And vvhen you are praying, speake not much,
as the heathen. For they thinke that in their09Q0378 much-speaking
they may be heard.
8 Be not you therefore like to them, for
your father knovveth vvhat is needeful for you, before you
aske him.
9 noteThus therefore shal you pray. noteOvr father which art in heauen,
sanctified be thy name.
10 Let thy Kingdom come. Thy wil be done, as in heauen,
in earth also.
11 Giue vs to day our note09Q0379 supersubstantial bread.
12 And forgiue vs our
09Q0380 dettes, as we also forgiue our detters.
13 And09Q0381 leade vs not into tentation. But
deliuer vs from euil, Amen.
14 For09Q0382 if you vvil note forgiue men their
offenses, your heauenly father vvil forgiue you also your
offenses.
15 But if you vvil not forgiue men, neither vvil your
father forgiue you your offenses.
16 And vvhen you note09Q0383 fast, be not as the hypocrites, sad. For
they disfigure their faces, that they may appeare vnto men to
fast. Amen I say to you, that they haue receiued their revvard.
17 But thou vvhen thou doest fast, anoynte thy head, and
vvash thy face: note
18 that thou appeare not to men to fast, but to
thy father vvhich is in secrete: and thy father vvhich seeth in
secrete, vvil repay thee.
19 noteHeape not vp to your selues treasures on the earth: vvhere
the rust & mothe do corrupt, & vvhere theeues digge through
& steale.
20 But heape vp to your selues09Q0384 treasures in heauen:
vvhere neither the rust nor mothe doth corrupt, and vvhere
theeues do not digge through nor steale.
21 For vvhere thy
treasure is, there is thy hart also. &cross4;
22 noteThe candel of thy body
is thine eye. If thine eye be simple, thy vvhole body shal be
lightsome.
23 But if thine eye be naught: thy vvhole body shal
be darkesome. If then the light that is in thee, be darkenes: the
darkenes it self hovv great shal it be?
24 noteNo man can note serue09Q0385 tvvo masters. For either he vvil hate
the one, and loue the other: or he vvil sustayne the one, and
contemne the other. You cannot serue God and Mammon.
25 Therfore I say to you, note be not09Q0386 careful for your life vvhat
you shal eate, neither for your body vvhat rayment you shal
-- --
put on. Is not the life more then the meate: and the body
more then the rayment?
26 Behold the foules of the ayre, that
they sovv not, neither reape, nor gather into barnes: and your
heauenly father feedeth them. Are not you much more of price
then they?
27 And vvhich of you by caring, can adde to his
stature one cubite?
28 And for rayment vvhy are you careful?
Consider the lilies of the field hovv they grovv: they labour
not, neither do they spinne.
29 But I say to you, that neither
Salomon in al his glorie vvas arayed as one of these.
30 And if
the grasse of the field, vvhich to day is, and to morovv is cast
into the ou&ebar;, God doth so clothe: hovv much more you O ye
of very smal fayth?
31 Be not careful therefore, saying, vvhat
shal vve eate, or vvhat shal vve drinke, or vvherevvith shal
vve be couered?
32 for al these thinges the note Heathen do seeke
after. For your father knovveth that you neede al these things.
33 Seeke therefore first the Kingdom of God, & the iustice of
him: and al these things shal be giuen you besides. &cross4;
34 Be not
careful therfore for the morovv. For the morovv day shal be
careful for it self, sufficient for the day is the euil thereof.
