And
when the people were gathered thick together, he began to
say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and
there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas
the prophet.
For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also
the Son of man be to this generation.
The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with
the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she
came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the
wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is
here.
The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this
generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at
the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas
is here.
No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a
secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a
candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine
eye is good, thy whole body also is full of light; but
when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be
not darkness.
If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no
part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the
bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.
