Luke 8:16-18
English Standard Version
A Lamp Under a Jar
16 (A)(B)“No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. 17 (C)For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light. 18 (D)Take care then how you hear, (E)for to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away.”

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.”
