Matthew 5:13-15

International Standard Version

Salt and Light in the World^(A)

¹³ “You are the salt of the world. But if the salt should lose its taste, how can it be made salty again? It’s good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled on by people.

¹⁴ “You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden. ¹⁵ People^[a] don’t light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
