Giving to the Needy

6 “Be careful not to [fn]give to the needy in front of others to be seen by them, otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 So when yoʋ give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before yoʋ, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward. 3 But when yoʋ give to the needy, do not let yoʋr left hand know what yoʋr right hand is doing, 4 so that yoʋr giving may be in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will [fn]himself reward yoʋ openly.
