Matthew 6:2-8

2ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 thou doestG4160 thy almsG1654, doG4537 notG3361 sound a trumpetG4537 beforeG1715 theeG4675, asG5618 the hypocritesG5273 doG4160 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 the streetsG4505, thatG3704 they may have gloryG1392 fromG5259 menG444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004 to youG5213, They haveG568 theirG846 rewardG3408.1 3ButG1161 when thouG4675 doestG4160 almsG1654, letG1097 notG3361 thyG4675 left handG710 knowG1097 whatG5101 thyG4675 right handG1188 doethG4160: 4ThatG3704 thyG4675 almsG1654 may beG5600 inG1722 secretG2927: andG2532 thyG4675 FatherG3962 whoG3588 seethG991 inG1722 secretG2927 himselfG846 shall rewardG591 theeG4671 openlyG1722G5318.

5AndG2532 whenG3752 thou prayestG4336, thou shaltG2071 notG3756 beG2071 asG5618 the hypocritesG5273 are : forG3754 they loveG5368 to prayG4336 standingG2476 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 andG2532 inG1722 the cornersG1137 of the streetsG4113, thatG3704 they mayG302 be seenG5316 by menG444. VerilyG281 I sayG3004 to youG5213, They haveG568 theirG846 rewardG3408. 6ButG1161 thouG4771, whenG3752 thou prayestG4336, enterG1525 intoG1519 thyG4675 closetG5009, andG2532 when thou hast shutG2808 thyG4675 doorG2374, prayG4336 to thyG4675 FatherG3962 whoG3588 is inG1722 secretG2927; andG2532 thyG4675 FatherG3962 whoG3588 seethG991 inG1722 secretG2927 shall rewardG591 theeG4671 openlyG1722G5318. 7ButG1161 when ye prayG4336, useG945 notG3361 vain repetitionsG945, asG5618 the heathenG1482 do : forG1063 they thinkG1380 thatG3754 they shall be heardG1522 forG1722 theirG846 much speakingG4180. 8ThereforeG3767, be yeG3666 notG3361 likeG3666 themG846: forG1063 yourG5216 FatherG3962 knowethG1492 what thingsG3739 yeG2192 needG5532, beforeG4253 yeG5209 askG154 himG846.
