NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Attendite, ne iustitiam vestram faciatis coram hominibus, ut vi deaminiab eis; alioquin mercedem non habetis apud Patrem vestrum, qui in caelis est.	1 “Pay attention, lest you perform your justice before men, in order to be seen by them; otherwise you shall not have a reward with your Father, who is in heaven.
2 Cum ergo facies eleemosynam, noli tuba canere ante te, sicut hypocritae faciuntin synagogis et in vicis, ut honorificentur ab hominibus. Amen dico vobis:Receperunt mercedem suam.	2 Therefore, when you give alms, do not choose to sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the towns, so that they may be honored by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
3 Te autem faciente eleemosynam, nesciat sinistra tua quid faciat dextera tua,	3 But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 ut sit eleemosyna tua in abscondito, et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito,reddet tibi.	4 so that your almsgiving may be in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
5 Et cum oratis, non eritis sicut hypocritae, qui amant in synagogis et inangulis platearum stantes orare, ut videantur ab hominibus. Amen dico vobis:Receperunt mercedem suam.	5 And when you pray, you should not be like the hypocrites, who love standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets to pray, so that they may be seen by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
6 Tu autem cum orabis, intra in cubiculum tuum et,clauso ostio tuo, ora Patrem tuum, qui est in abscondito; et Pater tuus, quividet in abscondito, reddet tibi.	6 But you, when you pray, enter into your room, and having shut the door, pray to your Father in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
7 Orantes autem nolite multum loqui sicutethnici; putant enim quia in multiloquio suo exaudiantur.	7 And when praying, do not choose many words, as the pagans do. For they think that by their excess of words they might be heeded.
8 Nolite ergoassimilari eis; scit enim Pater vester, quibus opus sit vobis, antequam petatiseum.	8 Therefore, do not choose to imitate them. For your Father knows what your needs may be, even before you ask him.
9 Sic ergo vos orabitis: Pater noster, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum,	9 Therefore, you shall pray in this way: Our Father, who is in heaven: May your name be kept holy.
10 adveniat regnum tuum, fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo, et in terra.	10 May your kingdom come. May your will be done, as in heaven, so also on earth.
11 Panem nostrum supersubstantialem da nobis hodie;	11 Give us this day our life-sustaining bread.
12 et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;	12 And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
13 et ne inducas nos in tentationem, sed libera nos a Malo.	13 And lead us not into temptation. But free us from evil. Amen.
14 Si enim dimiseritis hominibus peccata eorum, dimittet et vobis Pater vestercaelestis;	14 For if you will forgive men their sins, your heavenly Father also will forgive you your offenses.
15 si autem non dimiseritis hominibus, nec Pater vester dimittetpeccata vestra.	15 But if you will not forgive men, neither will your Father forgive you your sins.
16 Cum autem ieiunatis, nolite fieri sicut hypocritae tristes; demoliuntur enimfacies suas, ut pareant hominibus ieiunantes. Amen dico vobis: Receperuntmercedem suam.	16 And when you fast, do not choose to become gloomy, like the hypocrites. For they alter their faces, so that their fasting may be apparent to men. Amen I say to you, that they have received their reward.
17 Tu autem cum ieiunas, unge caput tuum et faciem tuam lava,	17 But as for you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
18 ne videaris hominibus ieiunans sed Patri tuo, qui est in abscondito; et Patertuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.	18 so that your fasting will not be apparent to men, but to your Father, who is in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
19 Nolite thesaurizare vobis thesauros in terra, ubi aerugo et tinea demolitur,et ubi fures effodiunt et furantur;	19 Do not choose to store up for yourselves treasures on earth: where rust and moth consume, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 thesaurizate autem vobis thesauros incaelo, ubi neque aerugo neque tinea demolitur, et ubi fures non effodiunt necfurantur;	20 Instead, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither rust nor moth consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21 ubi enim est thesaurus tuus, ibi erit et cor tuum.	21 For where your treasure is, there also is your heart.
22 Lucerna corporis est oculus. Si ergo fuerit oculus tuus simplex, totum corpustuum lucidum erit;	22 The lamp of your body is your eye. If your eye is wholesome, your entire body will be filled with light.
23 si autem oculus tuus nequam fuerit, totum corpus tuumtenebrosum erit. Si ergo lumen, quod in te est, tene brae sunt, tenebrae quantaeerunt!	23 But if your eye has been corrupted, your entire body will be darkened. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great will that darkness be!
24 Nemo potest duobus dominis servire: aut enim unum odio habebit etalterum diliget, aut unum sustinebit et alterum contemnet; non potestis Deoservire et mammonae.	24 No one is able to serve two masters. For either he will have hatred for the one, and love the other, or he will persevere with the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
25 Ideo dico vobis: Ne solliciti sitis animae vestrae quid manducetis, nequecorpori vestro quid induamini. Nonne anima plus est quam esca, et corpus quamvestimentum?	25 And so I say to you, do not be anxious about your life, as to what you will eat, nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
26 Respicite volatilia caeli, quoniam non serunt neque metunt nequecongregant in horrea, et Pater vester caelestis pascit illa. Nonne vos magispluris estis illis?	26 Consider the birds of the air, how they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much greater value than they are?
27 Quis autem vestrum cogitans potest adicere ad aetatemsuam cubitum unum?	27 And which of you, by thinking, is able to add one cubit to his stature?
28 Et de vestimento quid solliciti estis? Considerate liliaagri quomodo crescunt: non laborant neque nent.	28 And as for clothing, why are you anxious? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither work nor weave.
29 Dico autem vobis quoniam necSalomon in omni gloria sua coopertus est sicut unum ex istis.	29 But I say to you, that not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like one of these.
30 Si autem fenumagri, quod hodie est et cras in clibanum mittitur, Deus sic vestit, quanto magisvos, modicae fidei?	30 So if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and cast into the oven tomorrow, how much more will he care for you, O little in faith?
31 Nolite ergo solliciti esse dicentes: “Quidmanducabimus?”, aut: “Quid bibemus?”, aut: “Quo operiemur?”.	31 Therefore, do not choose to be anxious, saying: ‘What shall we eat, and what shall we drink, and with what shall we be clothed?’
32 Haecenim omnia gentes inquirunt; scit enim Pater vester caelestis quia his omnibusindigetis.	32 For the Gentiles seek all these things. Yet your Father knows that you need all these things.
33 Quaerite autem primum regnum Dei et iustitiam eius, et haec omniaadicientur vobis.	33 Therefore, seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you as well.
34 Nolite ergo esse solliciti in crastinum; crastinus enimdies sollicitus erit sibi ipse. Sufficit diei malitia sua.	34 Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow; for the future day will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its evil.”
