Matthew 5:13-16

Lexham English Bible LEB

13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if salt becomes tasteless, by what will it be made salty? It is good for nothing any longer except to be thrown outside [and] trampled under foot by people.

14 You are the light of the world. A city located on top of a hill cannot be hidden,

15 nor do they light a lamp and place it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it shines on all those in the house.

16 In the [same] way let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

New International Version NIV

13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
