Jesus continues to teach his disciples. This event began in [Matthew 5:1](../05/01.md).
Jesus is talking to a group of people about what might happen to them as individuals. All “you” and “your” in verses 5 and 7 are plural; in verse 6 they are singular, but you may have to translate them as plural.
## Truly I say to you ##
AT: "I tell you the truth."
## enter your inner chamber ##
AT: "go to a private place" or "go to an inner room."
## your Father who sees in private ##
This can be translated "your Father sees what people do in private."
## useless repetitions ##
repeating meaningless words
## much speaking ##
"long prayers" or "many words"
