Be careful not to do your charity before men in order to be seen by them, otherwise ye have no reward from your Father in the heavens.

Truly I say to you, they have their reward. But when thou do charity, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand does, read more.
so that thy charity may be in secret. And thy Father who sees in secret will himself reward thee in the open. And when thou pray, thou shall not be as the hypocrites, because they love to pray having stood in the synagogues and in the corners of the thoroughfares, so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward. But thou, when thou pray, enter into thy private room, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father in secret, and thy Father who sees in secret will reward thee in the open. And while praying do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do, for they think that they will be heard by their much speaking. Be not therefore like them, for your Father knows what things ye have need of before ye ask him. Pray ye therefore this way: Our Father in the heavens, hallowed be thy name. May thy kingdom come. May thy will happen on the earth as also in heaven. Give us this day the bread sufficient for us. And forgive us our debts as we also forgive our debtors. And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, because from thee is the kingdom and the power and the glory into the ages. Truly. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. And when ye fast, become not like the gloomy looking hypocrites, for they make their faces unsightly, so that they may appear fasting to men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward. But when thou fast, anoint thy head, and wash thy face, so that thou may not appear fasting to men, but to thy Father in secret. And thy Father, who sees in secret, will reward thee.
