auf daß dein Almosen verborgen sei; und dein Vater, der in das Verborgene sieht, wird dir's vergelten öffentlich.
Para que sea tu limosna en secreto: y tu Padre que ve en secreto, Él te recompensará en público.
afin que ton aumône se fasse en secret; et ton Père, qui voit dans le secret, te le rendra.
acciocchè la tua limosina si faccia in segreto; e il Padre tuo, che riguarda in segreto, te ne renderà la retribuzione in palese
Para que a tua esmola seja dada em secreto; e teu Pai, que vê em secreto, ele mesmo te recompensará publicamente.
好使你隱祕地施捨;你父在隱祕中察看,必然賞賜你。」
