21 He also was saying to them, “Is a lamp put under a basket or a bed? No, shouldn’t it be placed on a lampstand?
22 For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything kept secret except that it would come to light.
23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
24 Then He continued, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you; and more will be added to you.
25 For whoever has, to him more will be given. And whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
26 And He was saying, “The kingdom of God is like when a man spreads seed on the soil
27 and falls asleep at night and gets up by day, and the seed sprouts and grows. He himself doesn’t know how.
