3, 4. But (tho your good works must shine before men to God's glory, yet) be so carefully afraid of all affectation of vain-glory to your selves, as purposely to conceal all, when nothing but your own praise requireth openness; yea, do not note it too much in your selves, to puff you up; and then as your hearts and lives are all known to God, he will openly reward them to the full.
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 to you, they have their reward.
5. So let not your Prayer be like the Hypocrites, all done in public as on a Stage, to be seen of men: I tell you mens praise is all the reward they shall have.
