Matthew 6:1-8
New International Version
Giving to the Needy
6 “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them.(A) If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.(B)
Prayer(C)
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing(D) in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father,(E) who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling(F) like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.(G) 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need(H) before you ask him.

6 »Gardez-vous bien de faire des dons devant les hommes pour qu’ils vous regardent; sinon, vous n'aurez pas de récompense auprès de votre Père céleste. 2 Donc, lorsque tu fais un don à quelqu'un, ne sonne pas de la trompette devant toi, comme le font les hypocrites dans les synagogues et dans les rues afin de recevoir la gloire qui vient des hommes. Je vous le dis en vérité, ils ont leur récompense. 3 Mais toi, quand tu fais un don, que ta main gauche ne sache pas ce que fait ta droite, 4 afin que ton don se fasse en secret; et ton Père, qui voit dans le secret, te le rendra [lui-même ouvertement].
5 »Lorsque tu pries, ne sois pas comme les hypocrites: ils aiment prier debout dans les synagogues et aux coins des rues pour être vus des hommes. Je vous le dis en vérité, ils ont leur récompense. 6 Mais toi, quand tu pries, entre dans ta chambre, ferme ta porte et prie ton Père qui est là dans le lieu secret; et ton Père, qui voit dans le secret, te le rendra [ouvertement].
7 »En priant, ne multipliez pas les paroles comme les membres des autres peuples: ils s'imaginent en effet qu'à force de paroles ils seront exaucés. 8 Ne les imitez pas, car votre Père sait de quoi vous avez besoin avant que vous le lui demandiez.

Matthew 6:1-8
King James Version
6 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
