Gospel: Good Friday 
Revised Common Lectionary - Year C

6 When you do good deeds, don't try to show off. If you do, you won't get a reward from your Father in heaven.²When you give to the poor, don't blow a loud horn. That's what show-offs do in the meeting places and on the street corners, because they are always looking for praise. I can assure you that they already have their reward.
³When you give to the poor, don't let anyone know about it.  ⁴Then your gift will be given in secret. Your Father knows what is done in secret, and he will reward you.
⁵When you pray, don't be like those show-offs who love to stand up and pray in the meeting places and on the street corners. They do this just to look good. I can assure you that they already have their reward.
⁶When you pray, go into a room alone and close the door. Pray to your Father in private. He knows what is done in private, and he will reward you.
⁷When you pray, don't talk on and on as people do who don't know God. They think God likes to hear long prayers.  ⁸Don't be like them. Your Father knows what you need before you ask.
⁹You should pray like this:

Our Father in heaven,
help us to honor your name. 
¹⁰Come and set up your kingdom,
so that everyone on earth will obey you,
as you are obeyed in heaven. 
¹¹Give us our food for today. 
¹²Forgive us for doing wrong,
as we forgive others. 
¹³Keep us from being tempted
and protect us from evil.

¹⁴If you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you, your Father in heaven will forgive you.  ¹⁵But if you don't forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
¹⁶When you go without eating, don't try to look gloomy as those show-offs do when they go without eating. I can assure you that they already have their reward. ¹⁷Instead, comb your hair and wash your face.   ¹⁸Then others won't know that you are going without eating. But your Father sees what is done in private, and he will reward you.
¹⁹Don't store up treasures on earth! Moths and rust can destroy them, and thieves can break in and steal them. ²⁰Instead, store up your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy them, and thieves cannot break in and steal them.   ²¹Your heart will always be where your treasure is.
