Context
5“Nanyi msalipo, msiwe kama wanafiki, maana wao hupenda kusali wakiwa wamesimama katika masinagogi na kando ya barabara ili waonekane na watu. Amin nawaambia, wao wamekwisha kupata thawabu yao. 6Lakini wewe unaposali, ingia chumbani mwako, funga mlango na umwombe Baba yako aliye sirini. Naye Baba yako aonaye sirini atakupa thawabu yako. 7Nanyi mnaposali msiseme maneno kama wafanyavyo watu wasiomjua Mungu. Kwa maana wao hudhani kwamba watasikiwa kwa sababu ya wingi wa maneno yao. 8Msiwe kama wao, kwa sababu Baba yenu anajua kile mnachohitaji kabla hamjamwomba. 9“Hivi basi, ndivyo iwapasavyo kuomba:
“ ‘Baba yetu uliye mbinguni,
Jina lako litukuzwe.
