Mark 4:21-25 - The Parable Of The Lamp

²¹ And He said to them, Does a lamp come to be put under a grain-measure, or under a bed? and not to be set on a lampstand? ²² For there is nothing hidden which shall not be revealed; nor became covered, but that it might come to the light. ²³ If any man has ears to hear, let him hear. ²⁴ And He said to them, Take heed what you hear. With that measure which you measure, it shall be measured to you. And to you who hear, more shall be given. ²⁵ For he who has, more shall be given to him; and he who has not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.

¹⁶ And no one lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel or puts it under a couch; but he sets it on a lampstand so that those who enter in may see the light. ¹⁷ For nothing is secret that shall not be revealed; nor secret which shall not be known and come to be revealed. ¹⁸ Therefore be careful how you hear. For whoever has, to him shall be given; and whoever has not, from him shall be taken even that which he seems to have.

²¹ and being fully persuaded that what God had promised, He was also able to perform. ²² And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. ²³ Now it was not written for him alone that it was imputed to him, ²⁴ but for us also to whom it is to be imputed, to the ones believing on Him who has raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; ²⁵ who was delivered because of our offenses and was raised for our justification.
