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.

ગુજરાતીમાથ્થી ૬:૨
માટે જયારે તમે દાનધર્મ કરો, ત્યારે જેમ ઢોંગીઓ સભાસ્થાનોમાં તથા રસ્તાઓમાં માણસોથી વખાણ પામવાને કરે છે, તેમ પોતાની આગળ રણશિંગડું ન વગાડો. હું તમને નિશ્ચે કહું છું કે તેઓ પોતાનો બદલો પામી ચૂક્યા છે.
हिन्दीमत्ती ६:२
“इसलिए जब तू दान करे, तो अपना ढिंढोरा न पिटवा, जैसे कपटी , आराधनालयों और गलियों में करते हैं, ताकि लोग उनकी बड़ाई करें, मैं तुम से सच कहता हूँ, कि वे अपना प्रतिफल पा चुके।

In context

1“Be careful that you don’t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

2Therefore, 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.

3But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does,

4so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
