The eye is the body’s lamp

Luke 11:33–36

11:33 The eye is the body’s lamp

(Mat. 5:15; 6:22-23)

33 “No one lights a lamp and then hides it somewhere or puts it under a basket, but rather they put it on a lampstand so that everyone entering the room can see the light from it.[ref] 34 Your eyes are like the lamp for your body. Whenever your eyes are healthy, your entire body will be bright, but when your eyes are evil, your body is also dark, 35 so take care in case the light in you has gone dark. 36 Therefore if your whole body is bright without any dark areas, it will be bright all over, like when a lamp shines on you to illuminate you.”

Whenever the eye of _you may _be healthy, all the body of _you is also bright, but when evil may _be, the body of _you is also dark.
