19 Don’t pile up wealth here on earth where moths and rust ruin it, and where thieves break in and steal it. 20 Instead, you should store up your wealth in heaven, where moths and rust don’t ruin it, and where thieves don’t break in and steal it. 21 For what you value the most shows who you really are.
22 The eye is like a lamp that lights the body. So if your eye is healthy,6:22. Or "good, innocent." then your whole body will have light. 23 But if your eye is evil, then your whole body will be in the dark. If the ‘light’ you have is actually darkness, how dark is that! 24 No one can serve two masters. Either you’ll hate one and love the other, or you’ll be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Money.6:24. Literally, "Mammon," a transliteration from the Aramaic word for the Syrian god of money and wealth.
