Lexham English Bible
20 And those are the ones sown on the good soil, who hear the word and receive it[a] and bear fruit—one thirty and one sixty and one a hundred times as much.”[b]
The Parable of the Lamp
21 And he said to them, “Surely a lamp is not brought so that it may be put under a bushel basket or under a bed, is it?[c] Is it not[d] so that it may be put on a lampstand? 22 For nothing is secret except so that it may be revealed, nor has become hidden except so that it will come to light.
