Mat 5:13-20• (13) You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt loses its savor, with what

shall it be salted? It is no longer good for anything, but to be thrown out and to be trodden underfoot by men.

• (14) You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

• (15) Nor do men light a lamp and put it under the grain-measure, but on a lampstand. And it gives light to all who are in the house.

• (16) Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven.

• (17) Do not think that I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to destroy but to fulfill.

• (18) For truly I say to you, Till the heaven and the earth pass away, not one jot or one tittle shall in any way pass from the Law until all is fulfilled.

• (19) Therefore whoever shall relax one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven.

• (20) For I say to you that unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of Heaven.
