Mt 6:1-4

Teaching About Almsgiving.^* 1“[But] take care not to perform righteous deeds in order that people may see them;^a otherwise, you will have no recompense from your heavenly Father. 2When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites^* do in the synagogues and in the streets to win the praise of others. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward.^b 3But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing, 4so that your almsgiving may be secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
