Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.
World English Bible (WEB)
Therefore when you do merciful deeds, don’t sound a trumpet before yourself, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from men. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
Strong's King James
Therefore{G3767} when{G3752} thou doest{G4160}{(G5725)} thine alms{G1654}, do{G4537} not{G3361} sound a trumpet{G4537}{(G5661)} before{G1715} thee{G4675}, as{G5618} the hypocrites{G5273} do{G4160}{(G5719)} in{G1722} the synagogues{G4864} and{G2532} in{G1722} the streets{G4505}, that{G3704} they may have glory{G1392}{(G5686)} of{G5259} men{G444}. Verily{G281} I say{G3004}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213}, They have{G568}{(G5719)} their{G846} reward{G3408}.
The F.O.G *
(2) So whenever giving to the needy don't sound a shofar before you, exactly as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the street to be honoured by men. Amen I tell you they have their reward in full.
The F.O.G Message *
[2] So when you give to those in need, don't announce it with fanfare like those who care more about their reputation than compassion. They make sure everyone in the synagogues and streets notices their generosity. I tell you the truth - their public acclaim is the only reward they'll ever receive.
Young's Literal Translation
whenever, therefore, thou mayest do kindness, thou mayest not sound a trumpet before thee as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues, and in the streets, that they may have glory from men; verily I say to you—they have their reward!
