The Sermon on the Mount: How to Pray

The Sermon on the Mount: How to Pray

5And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, because they love to stand and[fn] pray in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, in order that they may be seen by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full! 6But whenever you pray, enter into your inner room and shut your door and[fn] pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

7“But when you[fn] pray, do not babble repetitiously like the pagans, for they think that because of their many words they will be heard. 8Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need[fn] before you ask him.

14For if you forgive people their sins, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you do not forgive people, neither will your Father forgive your sins.
