        3                                       3                3                          vi         vi
Store your treasures /in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal.

Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.


New International Version

 “Do not store up /for yourselves [treasures] /on earth, where moths and vermin destroy,

and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.


The Voice

Some people store up treasures /in their homes /here /on earth. This is a shortsighted practice—don’t undertake it.
               3                                                                            3
Moths and rust will eat up any treasure () you may store here.
                   3                                3    
Thieves may break /into your homes and steal your precious trinkets.
             vi                        3
Instead, put up your treasures /in heaven //where moths do not attack, where rust does not corrode,
         3                                                vi                         vi
and where thieves are barred /at the door. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
                      3       

* undertake; commit oneself to and begin (an enterprise or responsibility); take on.
* put up; 2. To preserve; can: put up six jars of jam.
비교;

put up with; To endure without complaint: We had to put up with the inconvenience.

New King James Version

 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;

but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
