| 6:15 | But yf ye wyll not forgeue men theyr trespasses, nomore shall your father forgeue you youre trespasses. |

| 6:17 | But thou, when thou fastest, anoynte thyne heed, and wash thy face, |
| 6:18 | that it appere not vnto men, how that thou fastest: but vnto thy father, which is in secret: and thy father which seeth in secrete, shal rewarde the openly. |

| 6:26 | Behold, the foules of the ayer: for they sowe not, nether do they reape, nor cary into the barnes: and youre heuenly father fedeth them. Are ye not moch better then they? |

| 6:28 | And why care ye for rayment? Consydre the lylies of the felde, how they growe. They laboure not, nether do they spynne. |
| 6:29 | And yet I saye vnto you, that euen Salomon in all hys royalte was not arayed lyke one of these. |
| 6:30 | Wherfore, yf God so cloth the grasse of the felde (which though it stande to daye, is to morow cast into the fornasse) shall he not moch more do the same for you, O ye of lytle fayth? |

| 6:32 | after all these thynges do the gentyls seke. For youre heuenly father knoweth, that ye haue nede of all these thynges. |

| 6:34 | Care not then for the morow, for the morowe daye shall care for it selfe: sufficient vnto the daye, is the trauayle therof. |
| 6:1 | Takith hede, that ye do not youre riytwisnesse bifor men, to be seyn of hem, ellis ye schulen haue no meede at youre fadir that is in heuenes. |
| 6:2 | Therfore whanne thou doist almes, nyle thou trumpe tofore thee, as ypocritis doon in synagogis and stretis, that thei be worschipid of men; sotheli Y seie to you, they han resseyued her meede. |
| 6:3 | But whanne thou doist almes, knowe not thi left hond what thi riyt hond doith, that thin almes be in hidils, |
| 6:4 | and thi fadir that seeth in hiddils, schal quyte thee. |
| 6:5 | And whanne ye preyen, ye schulen not be as ipocritis, that louen to preye stondynge in synagogis and corneris of stretis, to be seyn of men; treuli Y seie to you, thei han resseyued her meede. |
| 6:6 | But whanne thou schalt preye, entre in to thi couche, and whanne the dore is schet, preye thi fadir in hidils, and thi fadir that seeth in hidils, schal yelde to thee. |
| 6:7 | But in preiyng nyle yee speke myche, as hethene men doon, for thei gessen that thei ben herd in her myche speche. |
| 6:8 | Therfor nyle ye be maad lich to hem, for your fadir woot what is nede to you, bifore that ye axen hym. |
| 6:9 | And thus ye schulen preye, Oure fadir that art in heuenes, halewid be thi name; |
| 6:10 | thi kyngdoom come to; be thi wille don `in erthe as in heuene; |
| 6:11 | yyue to vs this dai oure `breed ouer othir substaunce; |
| 6:12 | and foryyue to vs oure dettis, as we foryyuen to oure dettouris; and lede vs not in to temptacioun, |
| 6:13 | but delyuere vs fro yuel. |
| 6:14 | Amen. For if ye foryyuen to men her synnes, youre heuenli fadir schal foryyue to you youre trespassis. |
| 6:15 | Sotheli if ye foryyuen not to men, nether youre fadir schal foryyue to you youre synnes. |
| 6:16 | But whanne ye fasten, nyle ye be maad as ypocritis sorewful, for thei defacen hem silf, to seme fastyng to men; treuli Y seie to you, they han resseyued her meede. |
| 6:17 | But whanne thou fastist, anoynte thin heed, and waische thi face, |
| 6:18 | that thou be not seen fastynge to men, but to thi fadir that is in hidlis, and thi fadir that seeth in priuey, shal yelde to thee. |
| 6:19 | Nile ye tresoure to you tresouris in erthe, where ruste and mouyte destrieth, and where theues deluen out and stelen; |

| 6:23 | but if thin iye be weiward, al thi bodi shal be derk. If thanne the liyt that is in thee be derknessis, how grete schulen thilk derknessis be? |
| 6:24 | No man may serue tweyn lordis, for ethir he schal hate `the toon, and loue the tother; ethir he shal susteyne `the toon, and dispise the tothir. Ye moun not serue God and richessis. |
| 6:25 | Therfor I seie to you, that ye be not bisi to youre lijf, what ye schulen ete; nether to youre bodi, with what ye schulen be clothid. Whether lijf is not more than meete, and the bodie more than cloth? |
| 6:26 | Biholde ye the foulis of the eire, for thei sowen not, nethir repen, nethir gaderen in to bernes; and youre fadir of heuene fedith hem. Whether ye ben not more worthi than thei? |
| 6:27 | But who of you thenkynge mai putte to his stature o cubit? |
| 6:28 | And of clothing what ben ye bisye? Biholde ye the lilies of the feeld, how thei wexen. Thei trauelen not, nether spynnen; |

| 6:31 | Therfor nyle ye be bisi, seiynge, What schulen we ete? or, What schulen we drinke? or, With what thing schulen we be keuered? |
| 6:32 | For hethene men seken alle these thingis; and youre fadir woot, that ye han nede to alle these thingis. |
| 6:33 | Therfor seke ye first the kyngdom of God, and his riytfulnesse, and alle these thingis shulen be cast to you. |
| 6:34 | Therfor nyle ye be bisy in to the morew, for the morew shal be bisi to `hym silf; for it suffisith to the dai his owen malice. |
| 6:1 | Take hede to youre almes, that ye geue it not in the syght of men, to the intent that ye wolde be sene of them: or els, ye get no rewarde of youre father which is in heauen. |
| 6:2 | When soeuer therfore thou geuest thine almes, thou shalt not make a trompet to be blowen before the, as the ypocrites do in the synagoges and in the stretes, for to be praysed of me. Verely I saye vnto you: they haue their rewarde. |
| 6:3 | But whe thou doest almes, let not thy lefte hande knowe, what thy righte hande doth; |
| 6:4 | that thine almes maye be secrete: and thy father which seith in secrete, shall rewarde the openly. |
| 6:5 | And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as ye ypocrytes are. For they loue to stode and praye in the synagoges, and in the corners of the stretes, to be sene of men. Verely I saie vnto you: they haue their rewarde. |
| 6:6 | But when thou prayest, entre in to thy chamber, and shut thy dore to the, & praye to thy father which is in secrete: and thy father which seith in secrete, shall rewarde the openly. |
| 6:7 | And when ye praye, bable not moch, as ye Hethen do: for they thinke that they shalbe herde, for their moch bablynges sake. |
| 6:8 | Be not ye lyke them therfore. For youre father knoweth where of ye haue nede, before ye axe of him. |
| 6:9 | After thys maner therfore shall ye praye:O oure father which art in heauen, halowed be thy name. |
| 6:10 | Thy kyngdome come. Thy wyll be fulfilled vpon earth as it is in heauen. |
| 6:11 | Geue vs this daye oure dayly bred. |
| 6:12 | And forgeue vs oure dettes, as we also forgeue oure detters. |
| 6:13 | And lede vs not in to teptacion: but delyuer vs from euell. For thyne is the kyngdome, and the power, and the glorye for euer. Amen. |
| 6:14 | For yf ye forgeue other men their treaspases, youre heauenly father shall also forgeue you. |
| 6:15 | But and ye wyll not forgeue me their trespases, nomore shall youre father forgeue you youre trespases. |
| 6:16 | Moreouer when ye fast, be not sad as ye ypocrytes are. For they disfigure their faces, that they myght be sene of men to fast. Verely I saye vnto you: they haue their rewarde. |
| 6:17 | But thou, whe thou fastest, annoynte thyne heed, and wash thy face, |
| 6:18 | that it appeare not vnto men, that thou fastest: but vnto thy father which is in secrete: and thy father which seyth in secrete, shal rewarde the openly. |
| 6:19 | Se that ye gather you not treasure vpon the earth, where rust and mothes corrupte, and where theues breake through and steale. |
| 6:20 | But gather you treasure together in heauen, where nether rust nor mothes corrupte, and where theues nether breake vp nor yet steale. |
| 6:21 | For where youre treasure is, there is youre herte also. |
| 6:22 | The eye is the light of the body. Yf thyne eye then be syngle, all thy body shalbe ful of light: |
| 6:23 | But and yf thyne eye be wycked, all thy body shalbe full of darckenes: Wherfore yf the light that is in the, be darckenes, how greate then shall that darckenes be? |
| 6:24 | No ma can serue two masters. For ether he shall hate the one and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other: Ye can not serue God and mammon. |
| 6:25 | Therfore I saye vnto you: be not ye carefull for your lyfe, what ye shall eate, or what ye shall drinke: nor yet for youre body, what ye shal put on. Ys not the lyfe more worth the meate, and the body more of value then raymet? |
| 6:26 | Beholde the foules of ye ayer: for they sowe not, nether reepe, nor yet cary in to the barnes: and yet youre heauely father fedeth the. Are ye not moch better the they? |
| 6:27 | Which of you (though he toke thought therfore) coulde put one cubit vnto his stature? |
| 6:28 | why care ye then for rayment? Considre the lylies of the felde, how they growe. They laboure not, nether spynne. |
| 6:29 | And yet for all that I saye vnto you, that euen Salomon in all his royalte was not arayed lyke vnto one of these. |
| 6:30 | Wherfore yf God so cloth the grasse, which is to daye in the felde, and to morowe shalbe cast into the fornace: shal he not moch more do the same vnto you, o ye of lytle fayth? |
| 6:31 | Therfore take no thought, sayinge: what shall we eate, or what shall we drinke? or where with shall we be clothed? |
| 6:32 | After all soch thynges do the heithen seke. For youre heauenly father knoweth, that ye haue nede of all these thynges. |
| 6:33 | Seke ye fyrst the kyngdome of heauen and the righteousnes therof, so shal all these thynges be ministred vnto you. |
