Matt. 5:1 And when He saw the multitudes, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him.
Matt. 5:2 And opening His mouth He {began} to teach them, saying,
Matt. 5:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Matt. 5:4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Matt. 5:5 “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
Matt. 5:6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Matt. 5:7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Matt. 5:8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Matt. 5:9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Matt. 5:10 “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Matt. 5:11 “Blessed are you when {men} cast insults at you, and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, on account of Me.
Matt. 5:12 “Rejoice, and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matt. 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty {again} ? It is good for nothing anymore, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.
Matt. 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
Matt. 5:15 “Nor do {men} light a lamp, and put it under the peck-measure, but on the lampstand; and it gives light to all who are in the house.
Matt. 5:16 “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Matt. 5:17 “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill.
Matt. 5:18 “For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass away from the Law, until all is accomplished.
Matt. 5:19 “Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and so teaches others, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches {them,} he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Matt. 5:20 “For I say to you, that unless your righteousness surpasses {that} of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.
Matt. 5:21 “You have heard that the ancients were told, “YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER” and “Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court.”
Matt. 5:22 “But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever shall say to his brother, “Raca,” shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever shall say, “You fool,”
Matt. 5:23 “If therefore you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,
Matt. 5:24 leave your offering there before the altar, and go your way; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering.
Matt. 5:25 “Make friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way, in order that your opponent may not deliver you to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.
Matt. 5:26 “Truly I say to you, you shall not come out of there, until you have paid up the last cent.
Matt. 5:27 “You have heard that it was said,“YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY”;
Matt. 5:28 but I say to you, that everyone who looks on a woman to lust for her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matt. 5:29 “And if your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out, and throw it from you; for it is better for you that one of the parts of your body perish, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
Matt. 5:30 “And if your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off, and throw it from you; for it is better for you that one of the parts of your body perish, than for your whole body to go into hell.
Matt. 5:31 “And it was said, “WHOEVER SENDS HIS WIFE AWAY, LET HIM GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE”;
Matt. 5:32 but I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for {the} cause of unchastity, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
Matt. 5:33 “Again, you have heard that the ancients were told, “YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FALSE VOWS, BUT SHALL FULFILL YOUR VOWS TO THE LORD.”
Matt. 5:34 “But I say to you, make no oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God,
Matt. 5:35 or by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it is THE CITY OF THE GREAT KING.
Matt. 5:36 “Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
Matt. 5:37 “But let your statement be, “Yes, yes” {or} “No, no”; and anything beyond these is of evil.
Matt. 5:38 “You have heard that it was said, “AN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.”
Matt. 5:39 “But I say to you, do not resist him who is evil; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
Matt. 5:40 “And if anyone wants to sue you, and take your shirt, let him have your coat also.
Matt. 5:41 “And whoever shall force you to go one mile, go with him two.
Matt. 5:42 “Give to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow from you.
Matt. 5:43 “You have heard that it was said, “YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR, and hate your enemy.”
Matt. 5:44 “But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you
Matt. 5:45 in order that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on {the} evil and {the} good, and sends rain on {the} righteous and {the} unrighteous.
Matt. 5:46 “For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax-gatherers do the same?
Matt. 5:47 “And if you greet your brothers only, what do you do more {than others} ? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
Matt. 5:48 “Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matt. 6:1 “Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.
Matt. 6:2 “When therefore you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be honored by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
Matt. 6:3 “But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing
Matt. 6:4 that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
Matt. 6:5 “And when you pray, you are not to be as the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners, in order to be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
Matt. 6:6 “But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
Matt. 6:7 “And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition, as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words.
Matt. 6:8 “Therefore do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need, before you ask Him.
Matt. 6:9 “Pray, then, in this way: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name.
Matt. 6:10 “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.
Matt. 6:11 “Give us this day our daily bread.
Matt. 6:12 “And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
Matt. 6:13 “And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. [For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.]”
Matt. 6:14 “For if you forgive men for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Matt. 6:15 “But if you do not forgive men, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.
Matt. 6:16 “And whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites {do,} for they neglect their appearance in order to be seen fasting by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
Matt. 6:17 “But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face
Matt. 6:18 so that you may not be seen fasting by men, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
Matt. 6:19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
Matt. 6:20 “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal;
Matt. 6:21 for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matt. 6:22 “The lamp of the body is the eye; if therefore your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light.
Matt. 6:23 “But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!
Matt. 6:24 “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Matt. 6:25 “For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious for your life, {as to} what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, {as to} what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body than clothing?
Matt. 6:26 “Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, and {yet} your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?
Matt. 6:27 “And which of you by being anxious can add a {single} cubit to his life’s span?
Matt. 6:28 “And why are you anxious about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin,
Matt. 6:29 yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory did not clothe himself like one of these.
Matt. 6:30 “But if God so arrays the grass of the field, which is {alive} today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, {will He} not much more {do so for} you, O men of little faith?
Matt. 6:31 “Do not be anxious then, saying, “What shall we eat?” or “What shall we drink?” or “With what shall we clothe ourselves?”
Matt. 6:32 “For all these things the Gentiles eagerly seek; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Matt. 6:33 “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.
Matt. 6:34 “Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. {Each} day has enough trouble of its own.
