Luke 11:29-36

29Now as the crowds were increasing, He began to say, “1This generation is a wicked generation; it 2demands a 3sign, and so no 4sign will be given to it except the 5sign of Jonah. 30For just as 6Jonah became a 7sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31The 8Queen of the South will rise up with the men of this generation at the judgment and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 32The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment and condemn it, because 9they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

33“10No one lights a lamp and puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light. 3411Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is 12clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is 13bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35So watch out that the light in you is not darkness. 36Therefore if your whole body is full of light, without any dark part, it will be wholly illuminated, as when the lamp illuminates you with its light.”
