OET (OET-RV) “No one lights a lamp and then puts a cover over it or puts it under a bed, but rather it’s placed on a lampstand so that everyone coming into the room can see the light.

OET-LVAnd no_one having_lit a_lamp, is_covering it with_a_object or is_putting it beneath a_bed, but is_putting it on a_lampstand, in_order_that the ones entering_in may_be_seeing the light.

SR-GNTΟὐδεὶς δὲ λύχνον ἅψας, καλύπτει αὐτὸν σκεύει ὑποκάτω κλίνης τίθησιν, ἀλλʼ ἐπὶ λυχνίας τίθησιν, ἵνα οἱ εἰσπορευόμενοι βλέπωσιν τὸ φῶς.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parables

οὐδεὶς δὲ λύχνον ἅψας

no_one and /a/_lamp /having/_lit

After Jesus finished explaining the story about the seeds, he gave his disciples another example to illustrate that God wants them to understand spiritual truths. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express this explicitly in your translation. Alternate translation: “Then Jesus gave them another example. ‘No one lights a lamp’”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

οἱ εἰσπορευόμενοι

the_‹ones› entering_in

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. Alternate translation: “those who enter the room”
