A cityG4172 setG2749 on a 2hillG3735 cannotG1410G3756 be hiddenG2928; 153norG3761 do people lightG2545 a lampG3088 and putG5087 it underG5259 a 4basketG3426, but on the lampstandG3087, and it givesG2989 lightG2989 to allG3956 who are in the houseG3614. 16Your lightG5457 must shineG2989 beforeG1715 peopleG444 inG3779 suchG3779 aG3779 wayG3779 that they may 5seeG3708 your goodG2570 worksG2041, and 6glorifyG1392 your FatherG3962 who is in heavenG3772.
