1At which time the myriads of the multitude having been gathered together, so as to tread upon one another, he began to say unto his disciples, first, `Take heed to yourselves of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;
2and there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known;
3because whatever in the darkness ye said, in the light shall be heard: and what to the ear ye spake in the inner-chambers, shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops.
4`And I say to you, my friends, be not afraid of those killing the body, and after these things are not having anything over to do;
5but I will show to you, whom ye may fear; Fear him who, after the killing, is having authority to cast to the gehenna; yes, I say to you, Fear ye Him.
6`Are not five sparrows sold for two assars? and one of them is not forgotten before God,
7but even the hairs of your head have been all numbered; therefore fear ye not, than many sparrows ye are of more value.
