Matthew 6:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 ¶ (A)[a]The light of the body is the eye: if then thine [b]eye be single, thy whole body shall be light.
23 But if thine eye be wicked, then all thy body shall be dark. Wherefore if the light that is in thee, be darkness, how great is that darkness?
24 (B)[c]No man can serve [d]two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and love the other, or else he shall lean to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and [e]riches.
