Luke 11:33-36
Legacy Standard Bible
33 “(A)No one, after lighting a lamp, puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light. 34 (B)The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is [a]clear, your whole body also is full of light, but when it is [b]bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Therefore watch out that the light in you is not darkness. 36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, with no dark part in it, it will be wholly illumined, as when the lamp illumines you with its rays.”

The Lamp of the Body
33 “No(A) one lights a lamp(B) and puts it in the cellar or under a basket,[a] but on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see its light. 34 Your eye is the lamp of the body.(C) When your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light. But when it is bad,(D) your body is also full of darkness. 35 Take care then, that the light in you is not darkness. 36 If, therefore, your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, it will be entirely illuminated, as when a lamp shines its light on you.”[b]
