The Light in You

³³^(A)“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. ³⁴Your eye is ^(B)the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is ^(C)bad, your body is full of darkness. ³⁵^(D)Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. ³⁶If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, ^(E)as when a lamp with its rays gives you light.”
