Bible Reading for October 16

Matthew 5
[1] And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set,
his disciples came unto him:
[2] And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, [3] Blessed are the poor
in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [4] Blessed are they that
mourn: for they shall be comforted. [5] Blessed are the meek: for they shall
inherit the earth. [6] Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousness: for they shall be filled.
[7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. [8] Blessed are the
pure in heart: for they shall see God. [9] Blessed are the peacemakers: for
they shall be called the children of God.
[10] Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven.
[11] Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall
say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. [12] Rejoice, and be
exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the
prophets which were before you. [13] Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the
salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good
for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. [14] Ye
are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
[15] Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a
candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. [16] Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your
Father which is in heaven. [17] Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or
the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
[18] For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. [19]
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall
teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but
whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the
kingdom of heaven.
[20] For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the
righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the
kingdom of heaven.
[21] Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill;
and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: [22] But I say
unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in
danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be
in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in
danger of hell fire. [23] Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and
there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; [24] Leave there
thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother,
and then come and offer thy gift. [25] Agree with thine adversary quickly,
whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver
thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast
into prison. [26] Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out
thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing. [27] Ye have heard that it
was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
[28] But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her
hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. [29] And if thy right
eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for
thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should
be cast into hell. [30] And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast
it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should
perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. [31] It hath been
said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of
divorcement:
[32] But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the
cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry
her that is divorced committeth adultery. [33] Again, ye have heard that it
hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt
perform unto the Lord thine oaths: [34] But I say unto you, Swear not at all;
neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
[35] Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is
the city of the great King.
[36] Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair
white or black.
[37] But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more
than these cometh of evil.
[38] Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a
tooth:
[39] But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite
thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. [40] And if any man will
sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
[41] And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. [42] Give
to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou
away.
[43] Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and
hate thine enemy.
[44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good
to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and
persecute you;
[45] That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he
maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the
just and on the unjust.
[46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the
publicans the same?
[47] And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not
even the publicans so?
[48] Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is
perfect.

Matthew 6
[1] Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. [2] Therefore
when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the
hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of
men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. [3] But when thou doest
alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
[4] That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret
himself shall reward thee openly.
[5] And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they
love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that
they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. [6] But
thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy
door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in
secret shall reward thee openly. [7] But when ye pray, use not vain
repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for
their much speaking. [8] Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father
knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. [9] After this manner
therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
[10] Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. [11] Give
us this day our daily bread. [12] And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our
debtors. [13] And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For
thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. [14] For if
ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
[15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father
forgive your trespasses.
[16] Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance:
for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I
say unto you, They have their reward. [17] But thou, when thou fastest, anoint
thine head, and wash thy face; [18] That thou appear not unto men to fast, but
unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret,
shall reward thee openly. [19] Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth,
where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
[20] But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: [21] For where
your treasure is, there will your heart be also. [22] The light of the body is
the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of
light.
[23] 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!
[24] No man 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.
[25] Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall
eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is
not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? [26] Behold the fowls
of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet
your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
[27] Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? [28]
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they
grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: [29] And yet I say unto you, That
even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
[30] Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and
to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of
little faith?
[31] Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we
drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? [32] (For after all these things do
the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all
these things. [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added unto you. [34] Take therefore no thought
for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Matthew 7
[1] Judge not, that ye be not judged. [2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye
shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you
again. [3] And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? [4] Or how wilt thou say to
thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is
in thine own eye? [5] Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own
eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's
eye. [6] Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls
before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend
you.
[7] Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
shall be opened unto you:
[8] For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to
him that knocketh it shall be opened. [9] Or what man is there of you, whom if
his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
[10] Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? [11] If ye then, being
evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your
Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
[12] Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye
even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. [13] Enter ye in at the
strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to
destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because strait is the
gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that
find it. [15] Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
[16] Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or
figs of thistles?
[17] Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit.
[18] A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
bring forth good fruit.
[19] Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into
the fire.
[20] Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. [21] Not every one that
saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that
doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
[22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy
name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful
works?
[23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye
that work iniquity.
[24] Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will
liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: [25] And the rain
descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house;
and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. [26] And every one that
heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a
foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: [27] And the rain descended,
and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell:
and great was the fall of it. [28] And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended
these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
[29] For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
