Matthew 6:1-3

1 Take heed that ye do not your alms[a] before men, to be seen* of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not[b] sound a trumpet before thee, 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 thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
