“When you give to poor people, don’t announce that you are giving. Don’t do like the hypocrites {\cf2\super [73]} do. They blow trumpets before they give so that people will see them. They do that in the synagogues {\cf2\super [74]} and on the streets. They want other people to give honor to them. I tell you the truth. Those hypocrites already have their full reward.
Your giving should be done in secret. Your Father can see the things that are done in secret. And he will reward you.
Then Jesus said to him, “Don’t tell any person about what happened. But go and show yourself to the priest. {\cf2\super [89]} And offer the gift that Moses commanded \{for people that are made well\}. This will show people that you are healed.”
Then the men were able to see again. Jesus warned them very strongly. Jesus said, “Don’t tell any person about this.”
“Don’t tell any person about what I did for you. But go and show yourself to the priest. And offer a gift to God because you have been healed. Offer the gift that Moses commanded. {\cf2\super [22]} This will show people that you are healed.”
If a person wants the people to know him, then that person must not hide the things he does. Show yourself to the world. Let them see these things (miracles) you do.”
