In Context

16 |Moreover when you fast, don't be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.

17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face;

18 so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

19 |Don't lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;

21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
