Be a Light for the World^(A)

³³ “No one lights a lamp and puts it in a ·secret place [cellar] or under a ·bowl [or basket], but on a lampstand so the people who come in can see [^Lthe light; Matt. 5:15; Mark 4:21]. ³⁴ Your eye is ·a light [^Lthe lamp] for the body. When your eyes are ·good [healthy; clear], your whole body will be full of light. But when your eyes are ·evil [unhealthy; bad], your whole body will be full of darkness. ³⁵ So be careful ·not to let the light in you become [or that the light in you is not actually] darkness. ³⁶ If your whole body is full of light, and none of it is dark, then you will ·shine bright [be radiant; be filled with light], as when a lamp shines [brightly; ^Lwith its rays] on you.”

¹⁵ And people don’t light a lamp and then hide it under a ·bowl [or basket]. They put it on a lampstand so the light shines for all the people in the house.

²² “The eye is ·a light [^Lthe lamp] for the body. If your eyes are ·good [healthy; clear], your whole body will be full of light. ²³ But if your eyes are ·evil [unhealthy; bad], your whole body will be full of darkness. And if the ·only light you have [or light you think you have; ^Llight in you] is really darkness, then ·you have the worst darkness [how great that darkness is!].
