13 You are the salt of the earth; but if its taste goes from the salt, how will you make it salt again? it is then good for nothing but to be put out and crushed under foot by men.

14 You are the light of the world. A town put on a hill may be seen by all.

15 And a burning light is not put under a vessel, but on its table; so that its rays may be shining on all who are in the house.

16 Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.

13 "你们是地上的盐; 如果盐失了味, 怎能使它再咸呢?结果毫无用处, 唯有丢在外面任人践踏。

14 你们是世上的光。建在山上的城是无法隐藏的;

15 人点了灯, 不会放在量器底下, 而是放在灯台上, 就照亮一家人。

16 照样, 你们的光也应当照在人前, 让他们看见你们的好行为, 又颂赞你们在天上的父。
