Matthew 6:6-8

New American Standard Bible

⁶ But as for you, when you pray, ^(A)go into your inner room, close your door, and pray to your Father who is in secret; and ^(B)your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

⁷ “And when you are praying, do not use thoughtless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard because of their ^(C)many words. ⁸ So do not be like them; for ^(D)your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.
