Luke 8:16-18
Christian Standard Bible
Using Your Light
16 “No one, after lighting a lamp,(A) covers it with a basket or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand so that those who come in may see its light.(B) 17 For nothing is concealed that won’t be revealed, and nothing hidden that won’t be made known and brought to light.(C) 18 Therefore take care how you listen. For whoever has, more will be given to him; (D) and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

A Lamp under a Jar
16 “No one after lighting a lamp hides it under a jar or puts it under a bed; rather, one puts it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.(A) 17 For nothing is hidden that will not be disclosed, nor is anything secret that will not become known and come to light.(B) 18 So pay attention to how you listen, for to those who have, more will be given, and from those who do not have, even what they seem to have will be taken away.”(C)
