6:28. And for raiment why are you solicitous? Consider the lilies of
the field, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin.
6:29. But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was
arrayed as one of these.
6:30. And if the grass of the field, which is to day, and to morrow is
cast into the oven, God doth so clothe: how much more you, O ye of
little faith?
6:31. Be not solicitous therefore, saying: What shall we eat: or what
shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed?
6:32. For after all these things do the heathens seek. For your Father
knoweth that you have need of all these things.
6:33. Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and
all these things shall be added unto you.
6:34. Be not therefore solicitous for to morrow; for the morrow will be
solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.
Matthew Chapter 7
The third part of the sermon on the mount.
7:1. Judge not, that you may not be judged.
7:2. For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with
what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again.
7:3. And why seest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye; and
seest not the beam that is in thy own eye?
7:4. Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy
eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye?
7:5. Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thy own eye, and
then shalt thou see to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
7:6. Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls
before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and
turning upon you, they tear you.
7:7. Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock,
and it shall be opened to you.
7:8. For every one that asketh, receiveth: and he that seeketh,
findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
7:9. Or what man is there among you, of whom if his son shall ask
bread, will he reach him a stone?
7:10. Or if he shall ask him a fish, will he reach him a serpent?
7:11. If you then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your
children: how much more will your Father who is in heaven, give good
things to them that ask him?
7:12. All things therefore whatsoever you would that men should do to
you, do you also to them. For this is the law and the prophets.
7:13. Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad
is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there are who go in
thereat.
7:14. How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to
life: and few there are that find it!
7:15. Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of
sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
7:16. By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles?
7:17. Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil
tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
