Luke 8:15-17

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

¹⁵ And the seed in the good soil— these people are ones who, having heard the word in a good and fertile heart, are holding-on-to it and bearing-fruit with endurance.

Lamps Are To Give Light And Reveal What Is Hidden

¹⁶ “And no one having lit a lamp covers it with a container or puts it under a bed. But he puts it on a lampstand^[a] in order that the ones coming in may see the light. ¹⁷ For there is not a hidden thing which will not become visible, nor a hidden-away thing which will never be known and come into visibility.
