Context — Teaching on Anxietygenerated
Matthew 6:34 is part of Jesus' teaching on not being anxious about daily needs. He encourages His listeners to trust in God's provision and to focus on the present day, which already has its own troubles. This teaching is situated within a larger discourse where Jesus addresses concerns about material needs, urging His followers to prioritize their relationship with God over worldly worries.

The Key Word — μεριμνήσητε, merimnaōgenerated
The verb μεριμνάω means to be anxious or to worry. It is derived from μέριμνα, which conveys the idea of being troubled with cares. The parsing shows that it is in the subjunctive mood, indicating a potential action or state — in this case, the act of worrying about future events.
In this verse, Jesus uses this term to instruct His followers not to engage in anxious thoughts about tomorrow, highlighting the futility of such worries. This word captures the essence of concern that distracts from faith and trust in God.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study references the Berean Standard Bible (BSB), which uses the phrase do not worry. The KJV and ASV also convey this sentiment but use different phrasing, such as take no thought and be not anxious respectively.
The translations differ mainly in how they express the concept of anxiety. The BSB and WEB use worry, while the ASV and KJV opt for anxious. Additionally, the term for trouble sees variations, with the BSB and others using trouble, while the KJV and ASV use evil.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is introduced by the conjunction οὖν, leading into the instruction not to worry. The finite verb μεριμνήσητε serves as the central action, with a prepositional phrase indicating the object of concern — αὔριον (tomorrow).
A second clause follows, stating that tomorrow will take care of itself, with another noun phrase describing the troubles of today. The structure emphasizes the relationship between present and future concerns, urging focus on the immediate.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The term μεριμνάω does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but captures a similar sentiment found in various contexts where anxiety or care is discussed. The Hebrew equivalent often used in the Old Testament conveys a sense of worry or concern, particularly in relation to God's provision.
The word κακία translates to moral depravity or trouble in the Septuagint, reflecting a broader understanding of the challenges faced in life, which is echoed in the teachings of Jesus.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Matthew 6:34 teaches us not to worry about tomorrow because it will take care of itself. Instead, we should focus on today, which already has its own challenges. This encourages a mindset of trust in God for our daily needs.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Jesus is teaching that we should not let our concerns about the future distract us from living in the present and trusting God for our needs.
He acknowledges that each day comes with its own challenges, and worrying about the future adds unnecessary stress to our lives.
You can focus on what you can control today and trust God with the uncertainties of tomorrow, reducing anxiety and fostering peace.
Planning is not wrong, but Jesus warns against excessive worry about what may happen, encouraging us to balance planning with trust in God.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- What are some practical ways I can focus on today instead of worrying about tomorrow?
- How can I remind myself to trust God with my future needs?
- In what areas of my life do I find myself worrying the most?
- How can I support others who struggle with anxiety about the future?

Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete.

μεριμνάω means to be anxious or to care for something, derived from μέριμνα. It covers a range of meanings from being troubled with cares to actively caring for others. The New Testament uses it in contexts like worrying about tomorrow (Mt 6:34) and being concerned for others (Phil 2:20). Some lexicons note a distinction in the nuance of anxiety, particularly in relation to over-anxiety.

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word αὔριον (*aurion*) means 'tomorrow' and is used as an adverb. It appears in various New Testament passages, including Matthew 6:30 and James 4:13. The word is derived from a term related to morning air, indicating freshness. It can also refer to the next day or the morrow in a more substantive sense, as seen in classical literature.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.

The Greek word γάρ (gar) is a coordinating particle primarily used to introduce reasons or explanations, similar to 'for' in English. It can serve various functions, including causal, explicative, and conclusive, and is often placed after the first word in a clause. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts that clarify or justify preceding statements, aligning with its classical usage.
γάρ, a conjunction, which ace. to its composition, γέ and dpa (i. 4. ἄρ), is properly a particle of affirmation and conclusion, denoting truly therefore, verily as the case stands, “ the thing is first aflirmed by the particle yé, and then is referred to what precedes by the force of the particle dpa” (Klotz ad Devar. ii. 1, p. 232; οἵ. Kiihner ii. p. 724; [Jelf § 786; W. 445 (415) sq-]). Now since by a new affirmation not infrequently the reason and nature of something previously mentioned are set forth, it comes to pass that, by the use of this particle, either the reason and cause of a foregoing statement is added, whence arises the causal or argumentative force of the particle, for (Lat. nam, enim; Germ. denn) ; or some previous declaration is explained, whence γάρ takes on an ex plicative force: YP Sor, the fact is, namely (Lat. videlicet, Germ. ndmilich). Thus the force of the…

μεριμνάω means to be anxious or to care for something, derived from μέριμνα. It covers a range of meanings from being troubled with cares to actively caring for others. The New Testament uses it in contexts like worrying about tomorrow (Mt 6:34) and being concerned for others (Phil 2:20). Some lexicons note a distinction in the nuance of anxiety, particularly in relation to over-anxiety.

a-bout': The use of this word as a preposition, in the sense of "around," is confined to the Old Testament. In the New Testament, generally an adverb, for Greek hos or "hosei." The Revised Version (British and American) adopts it in several idiomatic translations of mello, referring to what is about to be, i.e. on the point of occurring, or immediately impending, amending the King James Version, in Ac 5:35; 27:2; Re 12:4, etc.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἑαυτοῦ (i.e., *heautou*) is a reflexive pronoun meaning 'of himself, herself, itself,' and is used primarily in the third person. It appears in various contexts throughout the New Testament, often indicating actions done by a subject to themselves or emphasizing possession. Additionally, it can serve as a reciprocal pronoun in plural forms, indicating mutual actions among individuals.

ἡμέρα is a feminine noun meaning 'day,' covering various usages from the natural day (sunrise to sunset) to a full 24-hour period. It appears in contexts contrasting day with night, as well as in metaphorical senses related to time and judgment. The New Testament references include specific phrases like 'by day' and 'every day,' with notable occurrences in Matthew and Revelation.

da (yom; hemera): This common word has caused some trouble to plain readers, because they have not noticed that the word is used in several different senses in the English Bible. When the different uses of the word are understood the difficulty of interpretation vanishes. We note several different uses of the word:
(1) It sometimes means the time from daylight till dark. This popular meaning is easily discovered by the context, e. g. Ge 1:5; 8:22, etc. The marked periods of this daytime were morning, noon and night, as with us. See Ps 55:17. The early hours were sometimes called "the cool of the day" (Ge 3:8). After the exile the day. or daytime was divided into twelve hours and the night into twelve (see
Day
The Jews reckoned the day from sunset to sunset (Lev. 23:32). It was originally divided into three parts (Ps. 55:17). “The heat of the day” (1 Sam. 11:11; Neh. 7:3) was at our nine o’clock, and “the cool of the day” just before sunset (Gen. 3:8). Before the Captivity the Jews divided the night into three watches, (1) from sunset to midnight (Lam. 2:19); (2) from midnight till the cock-crowing (Judg. 7:19); and (3) from the cock-crowing till sunrise (Ex.…
The variable length of the natural day at different seasons led in the very earliest times to the adoption of the civil day (or one revolution of the sun) as a standard of time. The Hebrews reckoned the day from evening to evening, (Leviticus 23:32) deriving it from (Genesis 1:5) "the evening and the morning were the first day." The Jews are supposed, like the modern Arabs, to have adopted from an early period minute specifications of the parts of the natural day. Roughly, indeed, they were content to divide it into "morning, evening and noonday," (Psalms 55:17) but when they wished for greater accuracy they pointed to six unequal parts, each of which was again subdivided. These are held to have been -- "the dawn." "Sunrise."…
The day is distinguished into natural, civil, and artificial. The natural day is one revolution of the earth on its axis. The civil day is that, the beginning and the end of which are determined by the custom of any nation. The Hebrews began their day in the evening, Le 23:32; the Babylonians at sunrise; and we begin at midnight. The artificial day is the time of the sun’s continuance above the horizon, which is unequal according to different seasons, on account of the obliquity of the equator. The sacred writers generally divide the day into twelve hours. The sixth hour always ends at noon throughout the year; and the twelfth hour is the last hour before sunset. But in summer, all the hours of the day were longer than in winter, while those of night were shorter. See HOURS, and THREE.

κακία (kakia) refers to badness or moral wickedness, contrasting with excellence. It encompasses concepts like depravity, malignity, and trouble, appearing in various New Testament passages such as Acts 8:22 and Romans 1:29. The term also has a broader usage in late Greek, indicating evil or misfortune, as noted in Matthew 6:34. Notably, the lexicons agree on its meanings without significant disagreement.
κακία, -as, ἡ, (kaxds), [fr. Theognis down], Sept. chiefly for }9, and ΠΡ; 1. malignity, malice, ill-will, desire toinjure: Ro.i. 29; Eph. iv. 31; Col. iii. 8; Tit. iii. $; Jas. i. 21; 1 Pet. ii. 1. 2. wickedness, depravity: 1 Co. v. 8 [ef. W. 120 (114)]; xiv. 20; Acts viii. 22 (ef. 21); wickedness that is not ashamed to break the laws, 1 Pet. ii. 16. 3. Hellenistically, evil, trouble: Mt. vi. 34 (as Amos iii. 6; [1 S. vi. 9]; Eccl. vii. 15 (14); xii. 1; Sir. xix. 6; 1 Mace. vii. 23, ete.).
κακία is used in P Petr II. 23(1)9 (Ptol.) ἰδ[όϊντες τὴν κακίαν τῶν ἡμῶν, apparently of the damage done to a crop of rye and barley by hail (?): cf. P Flor 11. 176% (A.D. 256) ἐκ τῆς τῶν σύκων κακίας. In P Petr II. 19(2)5 (Ptol.) διὰ τὴν ἐν[εστ]ῶσαν Ὁ κακίαν, the reference is to the *‘idleness ueqore| certain workmen. For the stronger meaning ‘‘ malice,” τε wickedness,” see P Rein 715 (B.c. 141?) διὰ πάση]ς ἡσυχίας εἶχον τῶι μηδεμίαν ἔννοιαν [κ]ακίας ἔχειν, “je restai complétement tranquille, n’ayant aucun soupgon qwil me cherchat malice” (Ed.), P Oxy VIII. 1101? (A.D. 367— 70) εἴτε ὑπὸ κακίας ἢ Kal ὑπὸ κακο[βουλεία]ς τῆς πρ[ο]αιρέσεως, ‘‘ whether from malice or from perversity of judgment ” (Ed.); also Pretsighe 4127® ἀλότριον ἐμαυτὸν ἐποιησάμην πάσης κακείας kal wdo[ys. .

Counted over the 58 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
τῶν ὄντων τὰ μὲν οὔτ’ ἀρετῆς οὔτε κακίας μετέχει, ὥσπερ φυτὰ καὶ ζῷα ἄλογα, τὰ μὲν ὅτι ἄψυχά τέ ἐστι καὶ ἀφαντάστῳ φύσει διοικεῖται, τὰ δ’ ὅτι νοῦν καὶ λόγον ἐκτέτμηται·

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.
