Context
The Parable of the Lamp
4:21 He also said to them , “A lamp isn’t brought to be put under a basket or under a bed , is it? Isn’t it to be placed on a lampstand ?
4:22 For nothing is hidden except to be revealed , and nothing concealed except to be brought to light .
4:23 If anyone has ears to hear , he had better listen !”
4:24 And he said to them , “Take care about what you hear . The measure you use will be the measure you receive , and more will be added to you .
4:25 For whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have , even what he has will be taken from him .”
