Matthew 6:3
| ← Matthew 6:2 [words of Jesus] | Matthew 6:3 (KJV) [words of Jesus] | Matthew 6:4 [words of Jesus] → |
|---|---|---|
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not 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.
|
But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
|
That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
