¹Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

¹Pazite, da ne boste izkazovali pravičnosti svoje pred ljudmi, da bi vas oni videli, sicer nimate plačila pri Očetu svojem, ki je v nebesih.

²Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

²Kadar torej daješ miloščino, ne trobi pred seboj, kakor delajo hinavci po shodnicah in po ulicah, da jih hvalijo ljudje. Resnično vam pravim: Prejeli so plačilo svoje.

³But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

³Ti pa kadar daješ miloščino, naj ne ve levica tvoja, kaj dela desnica tvoja:

⁴That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

⁴da bode miloščina tvoja na skrivnem, in Oče tvoj, ki vidi na skrivnem, ti povrne.

⁵And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

⁵In kadar molite, ne bodite kakor hinavci, kajti oni radi po shodnicah in uličnih voglih stoječ molijo, da se kažejo ljudem. Resnično vam pravim: Prejeli so plačilo svoje.

⁶But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

⁶Ti pa, kadar moliš, pojdi v izbo svojo in zapri duri svoje ter moli k Očetu svojemu, ki je na skrivnem, in Oče tvoj, ki vidi na skrivnem, ti povrne.

⁷But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

⁷Kadar pa molite, ne govorite mnogo kakor pogani, kajti oni mislijo, da bodo uslišani zaradi obilih besed svojih.

⁸Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

⁸Ne delajte se torej njim enakih: kajti Oče vaš ve, česa vam je treba, preden ga vi prosite.

⁹After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

⁹Vi torej molite takole: Oče naš, ki si v nebesih, posvečeno bodi ime tvoje.

¹⁰Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

¹⁰Pridi kraljestvo tvoje. Zgodi se volja tvoja kakor v nebesih tako na zemlji.

¹¹Give us this day our daily bread.

¹¹Kruh naš vsakdanji daj nam danes.

¹²And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

¹²In odpusti nam dolge naše, kakor tudi mi odpuščamo dolžnikom svojim.

¹³And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

¹³In ne vpelji nas v izkušnjavo, temuč reši nas zlega. Ker tvoje je kraljestvo in moč in slava na vekomaj. Amen.

¹⁴For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

¹⁴Kajti če odpustite ljudem njih pregreške, odpusti tudi vam Oče vaš nebeški.

¹⁵But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

¹⁵Če pa ne odpustite ljudem njih pregreškov, tudi Oče vaš ne odpusti vaših pregreh.

¹⁶Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

¹⁶Kadar se pa postite, ne delajte se žalostnih kakor hinavci; pačijo namreč obraze svoje, da pokažejo ljudem, da se postijo. Resnično vam pravim: Prejeli so plačilo svoje.

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

¹⁷Ti pa si, kadar se postiš, pomazili glavo in umij obraz:

¹⁸That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

¹⁸da te ne bodo videli ljudje, da se postiš, temuč Oče tvoj, ki je na skrivnem; in Oče tvoj, ki vidi na skrivnem, ti povrne.

¹⁹Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

¹⁹Ne nabirajte si zakladov na zemlji, kjer molj in rja razjedata in kjer tatovi podkopavajo in kradejo,

²⁰But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

²⁰temuč nabirajte si zakladov v nebesih, kjer ne molj, ne rja ne razjedata in kjer tatovi ne podkopavajo in ne kradejo.

²¹For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

²¹Kajti kjer je zaklad tvoj, tam bode tudi srce tvoje.

²²The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

²²Svetilo telesu je oko. Če je torej oko tvoje zdravo, bo svetlo vse telo tvoje.

²³But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

²³Če je pa oko tvoje pokvarjeno, bo temno vse telo tvoje. Če je torej luč, ki je v tebi, tema, kolika je ta tema!

²⁴No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

²⁴Nihče ne more dvema gospodoma služiti; ker ali bo enega mrzil in drugega ljubil, ali bo enemu vdan in bo drugega zaničeval. Ne morete Bogu služiti in mamonu.

²⁵Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

²⁵Zato vam pravim: Ne skrbite za življenje svoje, kaj boste jedli in kaj boste pili, tudi ne za telo svoje, kaj boste oblekli. Mar ni življenje več nego hrana in telo več nego obleka?

²⁶Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

²⁶Poglejte ptice pod nebom: ne sejejo in ne žanjejo in tudi ne spravljajo v žitnice, in Oče vaš nebeški jih živi. Mar niste vi veliko več od njih?

²⁷Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

²⁷Kdo izmed vas pa more s svojo skrbjo postavi svoji primakniti en komolec?

²⁸And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

²⁸In za obleko čemu skrbite? Poglejte lilije na polju, kako rastejo: ne trudijo se in ne predejo;

²⁹And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

²⁹pravim vam pa, da se tudi Salomon v vsej slavi svoji ni oblekel kakor teh ena.

³⁰Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

³⁰Če pa travo na polju, ki danes stoji in jo jutri vržejo v peč, Bog tako oblači, mar ne bo mnogo bolj vas, maloverni?

³¹Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

³¹Ne skrbite torej in ne govorite: Kaj bomo jedli? ali kaj bomo pili? ali kaj bomo oblekli?

³²(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

³²Kajti vsega tega iščejo pogani. Saj Oče vaš nebeški ve, da vsega tega potrebujete.

³³But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

³³Ampak iščite najprej kraljestva Božjega in njegove pravičnosti, in vse to vam bo pridano.Ne skrbite torej za jutri; kajti jutrišnji dan bo skrbel sam zase. Dosti ima vsak dan svojega zla.

³⁴Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

³⁴Ne skrbite torej za jutri; kajti jutrišnji dan bo skrbel sam zase. Dosti ima vsak dan svojega zla.
