Luke 11:29-36

The Sign of Jonah

29 ¹When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, ²“This generation is an evil generation. ³It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.

30 For as ⁴Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation.

31 ⁵The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and ⁶condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, ⁷something greater than Solomon is here.

32 ⁸The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and ⁹condemn it, for ¹⁰they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, ¹¹something greater than Jonah is here.

The Light in You

33 ¹²“No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.

34 Your eye is ¹³the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is ¹⁴bad, your body is full of darkness.

35 ¹⁵Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness.

36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, ¹⁶as when a lamp with its rays gives you light. ”
