Matthew 6

NEW JERUSALEM	VULGATA
1 'Be careful not to parade your uprightness in public to attract attention; otherwise you wil lose al rewardfrom your Father in heaven.	1 Attendite ne justitiam vestram faciatis coram hominibus, ut videamini ab eis : alioquin mercedem non habebitis apud Patrem vestrum qui in cælis est.
2 So when you give alms, do not have it trumpeted before you; this is what the hypocrites do in thesynagogues and in the streets to win human admiration. In truth I tel you, they have had their reward.	2 Cum ergo facis eleemosynam, noli tuba canere ante te, sicut hypocritæ faciunt in synagogis, et in vicis, ut honorificentur ab hominibus. Amen dico vobis, receperunt mercedem suam.
3 But when you give alms, your left hand must not know what your right is doing;	3 Te autem faciente eleemosynam, nesciat sinistra tua quid faciat dextera tua :
4 your almsgiving must be secret, and your Father who sees al that is done in secret wil reward you.	4 ut sit eleemosyna tua in abscondito, et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.
5 'And when you pray, do not imitate the hypocrites: they love to say their prayers standing up in thesynagogues and at the street corners for people to see them. In truth I tel you, they have had their reward.	5 Et cum oratis, non eritis sicut hypocritæ qui amant in synagogis et in angulis platearum stantes orare, ut videantur ab hominibus : amen dico vobis, receperunt mercedem suam.
6 But when you pray, go to your private room, shut yourself in, and so pray to your Father who is in thatsecret place, and your Father who sees al that is done in secret wil reward you.	6 Tu autem cum oraveris, intra in cubiculum tuum, et clauso ostio, ora Patrem tuum in abscondito : et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.
7 'In your prayers do not babble as the gentiles do, for they think that by using many words they wil makethemselves heard.	7 Orantes autem, nolite multum loqui, sicut ethnici, putant enim quod in multiloquio suo exaudiantur.
8 Do not be like them; your Father knows what you need before you ask him.	8 Nolite ergo assimilari eis : scit enim Pater vester, quid opus sit vobis, antequam petatis eum.
9 So you should pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be held holy,	9 Sic ergo vos orabitis : Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificetur nomen tuum.
10 your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven.	10 Adveniat regnum tuum ; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.
11 Give us today our daily bread.	11 Panem nostrum supersubstantialem da nobis hodie,
12 And forgive us our debts, as we have forgiven those who are in debt to us.	12 et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
13 And do not put us to the test, but save us from the Evil One.	13 Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
14 'Yes, if you forgive others their failings, your heavenly Father wil forgive you yours;	14 Si enim dimiseritis hominibus peccata eorum : dimittet et vobis Pater vester cælestis delicta vestra.
15 but if you do not forgive others, your Father wil not forgive your failings either.	15 Si autem non dimiseritis hominibus : nec Pater vester dimittet vobis peccata vestra.
16 'When you are fasting, do not put on a gloomy look as the hypocrites do: they go about lookingunsightly to let people know they are fasting. In truth I tel you, they have had their reward.	16 Cum autem jejunatis, nolite fieri sicut hypocritæ, tristes. Exterminant enim facies suas, ut appareant hominibus jejunantes. Amen dico vobis, quia receperunt mercedem suam.
17 But when you fast, put scent on your head and wash your face,	17 Tu autem, cum jejunas, unge caput tuum, et faciem tuam lava,
18 so that no one will know you are fasting except your Father who sees al that is done in secret; andyour Father who sees al that is done in secret wil reward you.	18 ne videaris hominibus jejunans, sed Patri tuo, qui est in abscondito : et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.
19 'Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth, where moth and woodworm destroy them andthieves can break in and steal.	19 Nolite thesaurizare vobis thesauros in terra : ubi ærugo, et tinea demolitur : et ubi fures effodiunt, et furantur.
20 But store up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor woodworm destroys them andthieves cannot break in and steal.	20 Thesaurizate autem vobis thesauros in cælo, ubi neque ærugo, neque tinea demolitur, et ubi fures non effodiunt, nec furantur.
21 For wherever your treasure is, there wil your heart be too.	21 Ubi enim est thesaurus tuus, ibi est et cor tuum.
22 'The lamp of the body is the eye. It follows that if your eye is clear, your whole body will be fil ed withlight.	22 Lucerna corporis tui est oculus tuus. Si oculus tuus fuerit simplex, totum corpus tuum lucidum erit.
23 But if your eye is diseased, your whole body will be darkness. If then, the light inside you is darkened,what darkness that wil be!	23 Si autem oculus tuus fuerit nequam, totum corpus tuum tenebrosum erit. Si ergo lumen, quod in te est, tenebræ sunt : ipsæ tenebræ quantæ erunt ?
24 'No one can be the slave of two masters: he will either hate the first and love the second, or beattached to the first and despise the second. You cannot be the slave both of God and of money.	24 Nemo potest duobus dominis servire : aut enim unum odio habebit, et alterum diliget : aut unum sustinebit, et alterum contemnet. Non potestis Deo servire et mammonæ.
25 'That is why I am tel ing you not to worry about your life and what you are to eat, nor about your bodyand what you are to wear. Surely life is more than food, and the body more than clothing!	25 Ideo dico vobis, ne solliciti sitis animæ vestræ quid manducetis, neque corpori vestro quid induamini. Nonne anima plus est quam esca, et corpus plus quam vestimentum ?
26 Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or reap or gather into barns; yet your heavenly Fatherfeeds them. Are you not worth much more than they are?	26 Respicite volatilia cæli, quoniam non serunt, neque metunt, neque congregant in horrea : et Pater vester cælestis pascit illa. Nonne vos magis pluris estis illis ?
27 Can any of you, however much you worry, add one single cubit to your span of life?	27 Quis autem vestrum cogitans potest adjicere ad staturam suam cubitum unum ?
28 And why worry about clothing? Think of the flowers growing in the fields; they never have to work orspin;	28 Et de vestimento quid solliciti estis ? Considerate lilia agri quomodo crescunt : non laborant, neque nent.
29 yet I assure you that not even Solomon in al his royal robes was clothed like one of these.	29 Dico autem vobis, quoniam nec Salomon in omni gloria sua coopertus est sicut unum ex istis.
30 Now if that is how God clothes the wild flowers growing in the field which are there today and throwninto the furnace tomorrow, wil he not much more look after you, you who have so little faith?	30 Si autem fœnum agri, quod hodie est, et cras in clibanum mittitur, Deus sic vestit, quanto magis vos modicæ fidei ?
31 So do not worry; do not say, "What are we to eat? What are we to drink? What are we to wear?"	31 Nolite ergo solliciti esse, dicentes : Quid manducabimus, aut quid bibemus, aut quo operiemur ?
32 It is the gentiles who set their hearts on al these things. Your heavenly Father knows you need themal .	32 hæc enim omnia gentes inquirunt. Scit enim Pater vester, quia his omnibus indigetis.
33 Set your hearts on his kingdom first, and on God's saving justice, and al these other things wil begiven you as wel .	33 Quærite ergo primum regnum Dei, et justitiam ejus : et hæc omnia adjicientur vobis.
34 So do not worry about tomorrow: tomorrow wil take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of itsown.'	34 Nolite ergo solliciti esse in crastinum. Crastinus enim dies sollicitus erit sibi ipsi : sufficit diei malitia sua.
