Matthew 6:5-7
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Concerning Prayer
5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward. 6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.[a]
7 “And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
