¹ Attendite ne justitiam vestram faciatis coram hominibus, ut videamini ab eis : alioquin mercedem non habebitis apud Patrem vestrum qui in cælis est.

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 Te autem faciente eleemosynam, nesciat sinistra tua quid faciat dextera tua :

⁴ ut sit eleemosyna tua in abscondito, et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.

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 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 Orantes autem, nolite multum loqui, sicut ethnici, putant enim quod in multiloquio suo exaudiantur.

⁸ Nolite ergo assimilari eis : scit enim Pater vester, quid opus sit vobis, antequam petatis eum.

⁹ Sic ergo vos orabitis : Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificetur nomen tuum.

¹⁰ Adveniat regnum tuum ; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.

¹¹ Panem nostrum supersubstantialem da nobis hodie,

¹² et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.

¹³ Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

¹⁴ Si enim dimiseritis hominibus peccata eorum : dimittet et vobis Pater vester cælestis delicta vestra.

¹⁵ Si autem non dimiseritis hominibus : nec Pater vester dimittet vobis peccata vestra.

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 Tu autem, cum jejunas, unge caput tuum, et faciem tuam lava,

¹⁸ ne videaris hominibus jejunans, sed Patri tuo, qui est in abscondito : et Pater tuus, qui videt in abscondito, reddet tibi.

¹⁹ Nolite thesaurizare vobis thesauros in terra : ubi ærugo, et tinea demolitur : et ubi fures effodiunt, et furantur.

²⁰ Thesaurizate autem vobis thesauros in cælo, ubi neque ærugo, neque tinea demolitur, et ubi fures non effodiunt, nec furantur.

²¹ Ubi enim est thesaurus tuus, ibi est et cor tuum.

²² Lucerna corporis tui est oculus tuus. Si oculus tuus fuerit simplex, totum corpus tuum lucidum erit.

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 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 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 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 Quis autem vestrum cogitans potest adjicere ad staturam suam cubitum unum ?

²⁸ Et de vestimento quid solliciti estis ? Considerate lilia agri quomodo crescunt : non laborant, neque nent.

²⁹ Dico autem vobis, quoniam nec Salomon in omni gloria sua coopertus est sicut unum ex istis.

³⁰ Si autem fœnum agri, quod hodie est, et cras in clibanum mittitur, Deus sic vestit, quanto magis vos modicæ fidei ?

³¹ Nolite ergo solliciti esse, dicentes : Quid manducabimus, aut quid bibemus, aut quo operiemur ?

³² hæc enim omnia gentes inquirunt. Scit enim Pater vester, quia his omnibus indigetis.

³³ Quærite ergo primum regnum Dei, et justitiam ejus : et hæc omnia adjicientur vobis.

³⁴ Nolite ergo solliciti esse in crastinum. Crastinus enim dies sollicitus erit sibi ipsi : sufficit diei malitia sua.

¹ Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

² Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

³ and tell it, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and an astonishment.

⁴ I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

⁵ Because you have had a perpetual enmity, and have given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end;

⁶ therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you: since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.

⁷ Thus will I make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns.

⁸ I will fill its mountains with its slain: in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses shall they fall who are slain with the sword.

⁹ I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

¹⁰ Because you have said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas Yahweh was there:

¹¹ therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I will do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I shall judge you.

¹² You shall know that I, Yahweh, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they have been given us to devour.

¹³ You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard it.

¹⁴ Thus says the Lord Yahweh: When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.

¹⁵ As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do to you: you shall be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.
