Matthew 6:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ Your almsgiving must be done in secret. And your Father who sees everything that is done in secret will reward you.

Praying in Secret. ⁵ “Whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may observe them doing so. Amen, I say to you, they have already received their reward. ⁶ But when you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees everything that is done in secret will reward you.
