2 “Whenever you give to the poor, don't blow your trumpet as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets so that they may get praise from people. I assure you, that's the only reward they'll get.

3 But when you give to the poor, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing

4 so that you may give to the poor in secret. Your Father who sees what you do in secret will reward you.

4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
