A Lampstand and the Light
16 “Now (A)no one after lighting a lamp covers it with a container or puts it under a bed, but he puts it on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see the light. 17 (B)For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light. 18 So beware how you listen, (C)for whoever has, to him more shall be given; and whoever does not have, even what he [a]thinks he has shall 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)
