Matthew 6:4


← Matthew 6:3 [words of Jesus] Matthew 6:4 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 6:5 [words of Jesus] →
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.
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
