Start reading

5And 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.Select Matthew 6:5

6But 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.Select Matthew 6:6

7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.Select Matthew 6:7

8Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.Select Matthew 6:8

9After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Select Matthew 6:9
