1 Take heed that you give not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise you have no reward of your Father who is in heaven.
2 Therefore when you give your alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when you give alms, let not your left hand know what your right hand does:
4 That your alms may be in secret: and your Father who sees in secret himself shall reward you openly.
5 And when you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
