Moffatt(i)
1 Take care not to practise your charity before men in order to be noticed; otherwise you get no reward from your Father in heaven. No,
2 When you give alms, make no flourish of trumpets like the hypocrites in the synagogues and the streets, so as to win applause from men; I tell you truly, they do get their reward.
3 When you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 so as to keep your alms secret; then your Father who sees what is secret will reward you openly.
5 Also, when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites, for they like to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street-corners, so as to be seen by men; I tell you truly, they do get their reward.
6 When you pray, go into your room and shut the door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.
7 Do not pray by idle rote like pagans, for they suppose they will be heard the more they say;
