Mark 4:21

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand?

See the chapter Copy

Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.

“No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a bushel, but on a stand, that those who enter may see the light.

“No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, that those who enter may see the light.

To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
