But take heed not to perform your righteousness before men, to be seen by them; otherwise indeed, you have no reward from your Father in heaven. When, therefore, you give in charity, sound not a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be glorified by men. I tell you truly, they have their reward. But when you give in charity let not your left hand know what your right hand does, read more.
that your charity may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you.
that your charity may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you.

And [consider] this, He that sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly, and he that sows liberally shall reap also liberally. Let each one contribute as he chooses in his heart, not with regret or from necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
