5 katapi New Standard Bible Passage
13"You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men. Salt and Light Mt.5.13-16 (Galilee) | Mk.9.50 | Lk.14.34-35
14"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.  
15Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.  
16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.  
Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi New Standard Bible.
The katapi New Standard Bible is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages,
and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages.
Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole,
with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
