Amplified Bible

Matthew 5:14-18

14“You are the light of [Christ to] the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;

15nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

16Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good deeds and moral excellence, and [recognize and honor and] glorify your Father who is in heaven.

17“Do not think that I came to do away with or undo the Law [of Moses] or the [writings of the] Prophets; I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

18For I assure you and most solemnly say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke [of the pen] will pass from the Law until all things [which it foreshadows] are accomplished.
