Using Your Light
21 He(A) also said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket or under a bed?(B) Isn’t it to be put on a lampstand?(C) 22 For nothing is concealed except to be revealed,(D) and nothing hidden except to come to light. 23 If anyone has ears to hear, he should listen!”(E) 24 Then He said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear. By the measure(F) you use,[a](G) it will be measured and added(H) to you. 25 For to the one who has, it will be given, and from the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.”(I)
