Matthew 6:14-16

New Testament for Everyone

¹⁴ “Yes: if you forgive people the wrong they have done, your heavenly father will forgive you as well. ¹⁵ But if you don’t forgive people, neither will your heavenly father forgive you what you have done wrong.”

On fasting and lasting treasure

¹⁶ “When you fast, don’t be gloomy like the play-actors. They make their faces quite unrecognizable, so that everyone can see they’re fasting. I’m telling you the truth: they have received their reward in full.
