Matthew 6:14-21

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ For if you will forgive men their offences, your heavenly Father will forgive you also your offences.

¹⁵ But if you will not forgive men, neither will your Father forgive you your offences.

¹⁶ And when you fast, be not as the hypocrites, sad. For they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.

¹⁷ But thou, when thou fastest anoint thy head, and wash thy face;

¹⁸ That thou appear not to men to fast, but to thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret, will repay thee.

¹⁹ Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through and steal.

²⁰ But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal.

²¹ For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.
