Texts

(1) Matt 6:2-3a,4

/6:2/ "So whenever you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. /6:3/ But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, /6:4/ so that your alms may be done in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
