Now when John heard in prison about the deeds Christ had done, he sent his disciples to ask a question:

Therefore pay attention to what they tell you and do it. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they teach.

They do all their deeds to be seen by people, for they make their phylacteries wide and their tassels long.

In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor to your Father in heaven.
