Matthew 6:13-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

13. And do not cause us to be tested;but save us from the Evil One.’[The kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours forever. Amen.]

14. Yes, if you forgive others for the things they do wrong, then your Father in heaven will also forgive you for the things you do wrong.

15. But if you don’t forgive the wrongs of others, then your Father in heaven will not forgive the wrong things you do.

16. “When you give up eating, don’t put on a sad face like the hypocrites. They make their faces look strange to show people that they are giving up eating. I tell you the truth, those hypocrites already have their full reward.

17. So when you give up eating, comb your hair and wash your face.

18. Then people will not know that you are giving up eating. But your Father, whom you cannot see, will see you. Your Father sees what is done in secret, and he will reward you.

19. “Don’t store treasures for yourselves here on earth. Moths and rust will destroy treasures here on earth. And thieves can break into your house and steal the things you have.

20. So store your treasure in heaven. The treasures in heaven cannot be destroyed by moths or rust. And thieves cannot break in and steal that treasure.

21. Your heart will be where your treasure is.

22. “The eye is a light for the body. If your eyes are good, then your whole body will be full of light.
