2 When you give in charity, never blow a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and streets in order that their praises may be sung by men. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.

3 But when you are giving in charity, let not your left hand perceive what your right hand is doing,

4 that your charities may be in secret; and then your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.
