The law and the prophets until John
prophesied the kingdom.
And
I say that ye
repent, for
the kingdom
of heaven
is
nigh
at hand
to
ye
.
The people said, What shall we do
then?
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon
earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves [approach,]
break through and steal:
Lay up for
yourselves
a
treasure
but
in heaven where thieves do
not approach,
[break
through]
nor steal:
neither where
moth
[and
rust]
doth
corrupt and that ye
have
[treasures
but
in heaven] which
[thieves do
] not
[approach,
break through,
nor steal],
and
that
[neither moth]
nor rust [doth
corrupt].
For where your treasure is, there
will your heart be also. No servant can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the
one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. The light of the body is the eye.
If thine eye be single, thy whole body shall therefore be full of light. But if
thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be
darkness, how great is that darkness!
